BYU 59, UCLA 0


All eyes were on the tasty assortment of tailgating treats, including these candy eyeballs courtesy of the Schneiders.

After going the last two years with nothing but rabbit ears to provide television reception, we finally ponied up for cable TV. Perhaps the best part of finally getting cable, at least from my standpoint, is that we actually get to watch a few BYU football games. So as a special treat, Teressa decided to throw a tailgating party and invite a bunch of friends over to watch the game and eat lots of good food.


Attempts to use voodoo to stop the BYU onslaught proved to be futile, but the fact that Cassie Schneider is using a gummy heart might have made the spell a little less effective.

We had to invite the Alpers and the Hills since they are BYU fans. Then we decided to add a little spice to the mix by adding the Schneiders, since they aren't fans of BYU, but we enjoy their company anyway. Last of all we invited the Zamarripas to top it off.

Before the game started, the manfolk were discussing the possibility that this could be a close game. At that point I remember saying that I would be OK with a BYU win by a nice comfortable margin. Little did I suspect the shock and awe that was about to follow. The game was so one-sided that even poor Randy Schneider had to agree that it was a magnificent performance by BYU.


A BYU point for every year of Steve Alpers' life—plus a few extra.

At the finale of the game, we celebrated Steve Alpers' birthday. For my birthday can I pre-order a big-time BYU win at a BCS bowl?
