BYU football is my team. I have no others. While I love sports in general and football in particular, my fandom is fully invested in BYU. I can't simply withdraw it even if I wanted to. It is a part of me.
I was at 2 away games this year in which the Cougars got crushed. Yes, watching them lose was much worse than watching them win would have been, but watching them loose was still way better than not seeing them at all.
Here's to a victory in Hawai'i this weekend. Go Cougars!
