Kansas Jayhawks 24, Virginia Tech Hokies 21

Just got back from COLD Miami after going to the 2008 Orange Bowl to see K.C.’s alma mater, KU, beat down Virginia Tech. K.C., Dr. Gary, & I all went to the game and after navigating through the sea of tailgaters, we found we had excellent seats in the KU student/alumni section in the 400 level behind the KU end zone. The game was technically sold out, but I suppose either the cold or excessive pre-game drinking kept some fans away, as there were some empty seats around us. Despite the chilly & rainy conditions, the game was great – a lot of action (with the exception of the 3rd quarter), some great trick plays including a fake punt and a reverse on a punt return which lead to a VT touchdown. I will say there was far too much ZZ Top during halftime (who knew they were still around?). But in the end the desired outcome, a Kansas victory took place, and all were happy in KU Blue. In all it was a ton of fun and we all had a good time.
