"Sure, I'd like to sit close behind the BYU bench, if possible." Voila, they sent me a ticket three rows behind the bench. True, I had to give them my credit card info over the phone (what can go wrong?), but I'm set. Either that, or there's someone in Nigeria with excellent American English skill who will be eating very well this evening. If legit, this was a pretty cool and effective marketing move.

      You can check for yourself if I got screwed. I'll be wearing a blue/brown checked shirt, and maybe a blue sweater vest with a BYU logo, gray hair, glasses, and perhaps a look of "Why did I come?" if the Cougs get off to a slow start.
      That was a fun game at the Leavey last year. Well worth the 4 1/2 hour drive each way to see nick emery go all Jimmer on the Broncos.

        I forgot about this game. I am saddened you didn't invite me. Two gray heads rather than only one.
        PLesa excuse the tpyos.

            Wish I'd thought of it but I didn't think I'd attend until today. I'm on the third row at the very end, close to the SCU band do this could be hellish. It's cold outside (low 50s, I'm thinking of cowboy, brrrr), so I went with the BYU Law hoodie.

                This team is garbage. Yawn.

                  We are a completely different team on the road. It's sad.

                      Must be the 300 SCU fans rattling them.

                        I saw more effort and execution during the 1-25 season. They have absolutely no plan. None.

                              Rose going a lot of small ball. Let me know when the BYU team shows up, it looks as their bus was late.
