Let's Talk Football

Usually, I don't approach this subject because I don't feel that I have quite enough knowledge of the game to provide compelling arguments. But I'm learning. Slowly. But still learning.

One of the reasons I was extremely excited to go to BYU was because my family and I have been die-hard fans of Cougar football since...forever. And now that I was an official Cougar, I planned to go to as many football games as possible during my college career. The future of the 2009 Cougars looked bright as they came away from the OU game with an unexpected, and totally sweet victory.
Then came the Tulane game, where we whipped the poor guys. I actually felt kind of bad for them.
And then came Florida State. I was so pumped--it was our first home game, we had started off the season incredibly well, and Florida State wasn't even ranked. This was going to be an awesome game. I was so wrong, and SO disappointed! My amazing team failed me, and they failed miserably. What the heck happened? Our defense failed, and our offense was completely ridiculous (I mean, really, how many times did simply hand the ball to Florida State?).
I do have faith in our team. They are amazing--they showed us that in both the OU and the Tulane games. Let's just hope they just pull up their pants and get the job done this Saturday in their game against Colorado State.
