Good answer by BYU, 14-7. 

[Bullneck 19464]

That AT&T commercial with the snowman blows ass.

[shadow_operative2.0 16209]

Wide open whitey TE, 21-14 UAB late 2nd. 

[Bullneck 19464]

Blown coverage by BYU leads to an easy throw and catch to a WR named Gerrit Prince.  21-14 now.

I wonder if he was named after Gerrit Rietveld? 

I made a Rietvelt chair in architecture school.  It was comfortable to sit in for a minute or two.

Seriously? That’s your observation? You have a discriminating eye.

It was raining really hard earlier.

You don’t run the clock down if you’re going for it, dude. You want time to score. You run the clock down if you’re punting. 

[WhatTheBuck 28904]

Cougars get nothing. 

[shadow_operative2.0 16209]

BYU busts a long one to tie it at 21 to start the 3rd. 

[shadow_operative2.0 16209]

UAB WR pops it right into the hands of BYU defender. Cougs down 3, late 3rd. 

[shadow_operative2.0 16209]

Sweet shovel pass leads to a TD, 28-24 to start the 4th. 

[WhatTheBuck 28904]

TD Blazers! On 4th and 7, in FG range, down 4, with six minutes left. Nice play. I would’ve been tempted to kick it but they’re struggling to stop BYU’s O so it was probably (obviously, given the result) the right call. Gutsy call, though. 

[WhatTheBuck 28904]

Shropshire’s a good player.

It’s also a good cheese.

[shadow_operative2.0 16209]

My boy #13 having himself a half. 

[twosheds 379]

Nice conversion for the cougars!

[InkaUtexas 26840]

Nice hurdle.  

[WhatTheBuck 28904]

Did he ever actually have possession?

[shadow_operative2.0 16209]

Ha, fucker caught it, then straight dropped it untouched. 

[twosheds 379]

Oops. Never mind. Possible turnover. lol

[WhatTheBuck 28904]

I’ll bet they call that incomplete. He was bobbling it right from when it first touched his hands.

[WhatTheBuck 28904]

Sweet. That was close. From the replay angle it looked closer to possession and an unforced fumble, but I’ll bet BYU fans are upset. 

[shadow_operative2.0 16209]

UAB wins. 

[WhatTheBuck 28904]

Way to go, Blazers. Just their second ever bowl win? I wouldn’t have guessed that. 

[InkaUtexas 26840]

Yeah, they seem to be in a bowl every year. 

[PittsburghTiger 6328]

That was an enjoyable game.  Surprisingly effective running game for UAB.  I was pleased

[pops 7127]

Fuck byu. Good win UAB.

I would go to the Indy bowl in high school growing up around there and it seems the weather gods would always give the area the shittiest weather of the year for this game. This is a game for Shreveport people to just go and get shit housed at, weather be dammed. 

[BevoSwag 272]

I seem to recall aggy playing there in a snowstorm and probably losing like they always did.

[Rimbo 26876]

So happy to see UAB win, after actually losing their football team and now coming back to beat one of the mid-tier powerhousese in BYU.

Yeah, especially considering the sleazy politics behind why they were shut down. Gotta be happy for those seniors. 

[PittsburghTiger 6328]

Oh, and WTF BYU? Your uniforms in the dark blue still suck. Go back to the royal-ish blue.
