THE game



Well, Devan and I went to the first game of the BYU season.  The BYU vs. University of Washington.  The QB of U of W (Jake Locker) is said to be good as Tim Tebow.  And for those of you who know Tim Tebow also know that he was picked in the first round of the NFL draft this year and plays for the Denver Bronco's now.  Well back to the BYU game.  This year, BYU is trying something new.... They have 2 starting QBs.  Riley Nelson, who is a junior, and Jake Heaps, who is a true freshman.    They both did pretty well, and we think they worked well together leading the BYU cougars to a VICTORY! Nielson is more like a "running" QB, since he runs the ball a lot, but Heaps is very good at throwing the ball.  This was Heaps first "college football" game, since he graduated from HS last year.  The first drive wasn't very good for either quaterback, so I was a little worried, but the defense did an amazing job and was able to stop U of W.

During half-time, we were also able to see Steve Yong and some other former BYU QBs, like Jim McMahon and Ty Detmer, on the field because they were being awarded.  Devan was stoked and was taking lots of pictures.  I think the defense did super good today stopping Jacob Locker.  His name is up for the Heisman Trophy candidate.  Good game and goooo cougars!!

Cosmo the Cougar is my favorite, see he's pointing at me!

For those of you who would like to cheer with us, this is our "fight song" so have it memorized by the next game!!!


O Rise, all loyal Cougars and hurl your challenge to the foe.
You will fight, day or night, rain or snow.
Loyal, Strong, and True
Wear the White and Blue.
While we sing, get set to spring.
Come on Cougars, it's up to you!
CHORUS:
O Rise and Shout, the Cougars are out
Along the trail to fame and glory.
Rise and shout, our cheers will ring out,
As you unfold your vict'ry story.
On you go to vanquish the foe
For Alma Mater's sons and daughters.
As we join in song, in praise of you, our faith is strong.
We'll raise our colors high in the blue,
And cheer the Cougars of BYU.
CHANT:
"Ra, ra, ra, ra, ra (3x) GO COUGARS!"
