Re-or!

For those of you who know the fine art of onomatopoeia, you'll know what the sound the blog title makes. But for those of you who don't know what that sound is, it's the sound a Cougar makes when it gets flattened by a Runnin' Rebel. (Seems oh so obvious now, doesn't it?)

Some might say we won because we had the home court advantage, and we had that, but I think we won because we have the better team. I don't even know where to start.

How about with Terr-Bear's (nickname courtesy of Sheleana) awesome performance? He just kept sinking the 3's! My favorite was the one with about 11 minutes left in the first half, and he was so far away from the 3! line. He shot it, the crowd gasped in fear, but it went in. And same with the majority of his other 3!'s. It just goes to show that when Terry is on his game, he's on fire. Good for you Terry, good for you.

I could also mention that it seemed everyone was in on the scoring action. Terry, Wink, Darger, Rougeau, Bailey, everyone! Even Lawrence got a few points. And if I'm not mistaken Ken Doll got a pretty sweet 3! as well. I was expecting it to be a really close game, but we beat them by 29 points! And by the way, I love watching the crowd when it comes to um, sketchy referee calls. It's amazing just how quickly people can jump out of their chairs in anger.

Orrrr I could bring up the fact that our defense was on point at tonight's game. Obviously I don't follow BYU basketball, but I would assume that they normally get more than 41 points a game. And it just goes to show that size doesn't matter. BYU's #44 was a beast of a man, but when it came down to it, he really wasn't all that good against us. Good job Rebels, you made us fans proud (yet again!)

On kind of a side note, I'm reading Tark the Shark's biography, and there's a passage on how he recruited Moses Scurry, and it was because he saw the pre-game lightshow on television. I'm glad I'm not the only one who enjoys the hell out of those fireworks.

(Also, a thank you to JB for linking my blog on his. If you're looking for an excellent blog on the Rebs, check out the Master Blogger at the link on the right! )

As for the Cougars, na na na na...na na na na..., well, I'm sure they know the rest.

YES! CT is amazing. (sometimes) If you would have told me that wink adams scores 5 points tonight, i would tell you we lose by 15. If you told me we would win by 29, i would have called you crazy. that was tenacious...the crowd was crazy...i love the rebels
