Beautiful Night for Football - Not so Beautiful ending score!

So, the key difference between Idaho football and Arizona football is the fan attire.  In mid September at an Idaho football game, ensembles may include jeans, long sleeved shirts, heavy socks, Jackets, blankets, some times even coats, gloves and hats - and there is a lot of shivering, especially among those players on the sidelines. 
At the game last night in Arizona, we sat in our shorts and shirt sleevs, rockin' our flip flops on a beautiful 90 degree evening.  Players on the sidelines sweated a bit with their helmets on.  But all and all, it was a delightful evening to sit outside and watch a football game.  I love nights like that, where you are forced to slowed down and take in the scenery. 
The down side of the evening, was the actual game.  The team that "shouldn't be a any problem" to the up-to-last night undefeated Freshman Jags, posed a problem.  They held the lead the entire game, albeit not a huge lead.  The Jags lost 18-14.  And my favorite #41 stood at the sidelines all night.  At least he can't be blamed for the loss. :)
