BYU vs San Diego State: Cougars on the prowl...

Nestled into the rocky hillside along the picturesque Wasatch Range, Lavell Edwards Stadium may claim one of the most awe inspiring backdrops in all of College Football. Claiming a few unique traits among the CFB landscape, BYU is the only alcohol free tailgating I have experienced in my travels. Naturally, I opted for student seating, and despite the obvious sobriety of all, it was surprisingly boisterous and loud. The team also sports an imposing Haka during their warmups, a feature introduced by the well represented Tongan members of the BYU squad.

The Cougars proved quite formidable in their home venue, after some they promptly thrashed the Aztecs in short order to the tune of 47-17.
