Single best and single worst in-game moment as a BYU fan (any sport)

It's a Jelly

If Payne makes that field goal BYU goes bowling that year and Crowton stays HC

In recent memory, the Delavadova game winner really hurt.

cougfanblue

8/1/14 3:21pm

Oh man... I had suppressed that memory.

Ham

Best non-Jimmer basketball moment was Kevin Nixon's heave to win

Ugh. You may a convincing case. Payne cost us a meaningless game. Davies....

It's a Jelly

8/1/14 3:28pm

Davies suspension was a really dark day

Ham

8/1/14 3:39pm

I basically cried through the whole thing. No lie. I felt SO bad for our guys.

Ashtrash

8/1/14 3:49pm

Sad, but Davies suspension is like top 5 worst days of my life. No joke.
