Fiesta Bowl


Lindsey and I had quite the exciting evening on Monday when we went to the Fiesta Bowl in Glendale, Arizona. It was the first bowl game either of us have been to. Now, you're probably wondering why I say it was an exciting evening given that the Buckeyes lost. That's a fair question; but you watched the game, right? I can think of no better word to describe it than "exciting." I sure thought we were gonna win, but I guess you can't give a Heisman-caliber quarterback a full 2 minutes to drive down the field. Gotta feel bad for the seniors who go out having lost the last three bowl games; but I think some of Ohio State's credibility as a football powerhouse has been restored given how well they played.

Here are some photos from where we were sitting:


National Anthem w/ 100-yard flag


Buckeyes making their entrance


At least our band kicked Texas' butt


Brandon Saine's touchdown run to put the Buckeyes up 21-17.
I was so confident they were gonna win that I told Lindz to
get out the camera so we could take a picture of the victory....
I must have jinxed them.


At least we had a good time!
