    I can't help myself I wanted to let this go but I can't, you didn't mention one game that meant less give me a game a time a place. Also the fans in San Diego, Las Vegas, Colorado Springs, Albuquerque, Salt Lake will be sad to learn they live in backwater western towns.

      But since you want me to do the research for you, here are a few:

      1. 2003. 27-20 @ UNLV. We were 4-4 and coming off a crushing home loss to CSU (58-10) and a loss in Laramie to a crappy Wyoming team. On our way to a 5-6 season.

      2. 2004. 24-13 @ Wyoming. Were 2-4 and coming off a shocking home loss to UNLV. On our way to a second 5-6 season in a row.

      3. 2002. 34-10 @ SDSU. We were 3-5 and 1-4 over our previous four games. On our way to a 5-7 season.

      4. 2002. 35-31 @ Wyoming. We were 4-5. Same season. Next game.

      5. 2000. 37-13 @ New Mexico. We were 4-6. Who the hell cares?

      6. 1993. 45-44 @ SDSU. We were 3-4 and coming off a humiliating 58-56 loss at Utah State.

      Is that enough for you, or should I keep going?

        2000 New Mexico was at BYU. That was doman's first start and lavell's last home game-- the infamous "don't muff it" game.

          Ha. Looks like Dr. Science Jeff Lebowski can't get his facts straight. That was a cold, cold game but a lot of fun.

                Obviously since the team you care about is nothing more than a zero.

                    Really happy to see the Cougars rebound. While MTSU may not be top flight competition, they aren't a terrible team like the upcoming two will be.

                    I am also starting to really like recording the game and then watching it. It takes about an hour and a half to watch a 4 hour game.

                        I pay a neighborhood kid to come over and do it. I do know how to pull it up and FF though.

                            I met Farrah Fawcett in the latter part of 2006. She didn't look good at all. Sadly, it was only a short time later that it came out that she had cancer.

                              That game was important to me. I was there. We stayed the whole time. I specifically remember talking with my roommate about how bad it would be if we lost LaVell's last home game. We went to the Utah game the next week as well.

                                QUOTE=Shaka;1147898]I like the win. It showed that BYU can pull itself up by its bootstraps and start on the road to a turnaround. The game also showcased some younger talent that is starting to mature. Personally I saw a lot of positives including the coaching.[/QUOTE]
