Utah vs UCLA

 We were glad when Tom and Kathy asked us to join them for the Utah vs UCLA game up at Rice Eccles Stadium! We lucked out and the weather that day wasn't too cold since the game was at 1:30pm and the sun was out to keep us warm!
 We still brought plenty of layers though just in case! :) The game itself was a bit slow, well for Utah anyway! This season Utah had been AMAZING and even managed to get into the top 10 in the rankings! But slowly they started to slump a bit and this game ended up being pretty frustrating!
 It was low scoring and because it was on TV was a very SLOW game! We eventually lost our sunshine and it got VERY cold! So we only lasted a while in the 4th quarter and then took off. They ended up loosing 17-9. It would have been much worse if the defense hadn't been playing so well. Thank heavens for THAT at least! And of course we always enjoy visiting with each other and the fun atmosphere at the games!
Either way, win or lose, we will always love our Utes! There's nothing quite as fun as a college football game! And a funny side note- we saw some of the Alta coaches on the sidelines at the game! Apparently they have friends there at Utah! :)
