Default 34 - 31

The greatest games I ever saw both ended with the same score - Utah 34 BYU 31! Hell, in all honesty the string of wins from 2002 - 2005 were pretty damn wonderful, especially the 3 - 0 blanking in Lavell Edward's Stadium.

34-31 was fantastic, but I was pretty young when I was there.

From a third party, the 33-31 was an absolute classic. A 14-0 lead, tie, lead changes, last minute touchdown followed by a last second touchdown on an unbelievable play. I was disappointed for a fraction of a second until I realized what a fantastic chess match/game I just watched.

That's strange, two of the worst games I ever attended had the same final score.

Y, if you ignore those games they will go away. The did not happen. I wasn't in attendance, and the reportings thereof have been greatly exaggerated through midrashric additions. Simply did not occur.

This is my feeling on the entirety of the 1990s.

The year was 1994 when the Fightin' Cougars of Brigham Young University destroyed the Oklahoma Sooners in the Copper Bowl by the score of 31-6. It happened Barbara. It happened.

How many victories does the mighty BCS Sooner school have against little Podunk U in football?

Why didn't Barry wish to play Podunk U?

Barry wished to defeat the mighty Huskies, which we would have done, incidentally, had the refs not called a penalty on our mascot. Who calls a penalty on a mascot??

Also, of course the teams have only met once, so it's hard to argue that the Sooners have ever actually, you know, won a matchup.

But, last year we soundly defeated Oregon, and you guys, you know, kind of lost to Oregon. So by the transitive property of victory, we sort of defeated you guys.
