Dear Dad,
I know it's not time for my regular letter, but I just wanted you to pass on my thanks to the Football Winning Committee in Heaven tonight. They must have let you be in charge - like a temporary member for the evening. Because BYU winning that game was a miracle.
I guess you felt like you needed to make up for your lack of faith during the actual Miracle Bowl back in 1980 - where you left early to go back to Ruby Valley because BYU was losing by 21 points. Then they ended up coming back in the last three minutes and you had to drive all the way back to Elko to see the highlights.
Sigh. It was a great late birthday present. In fact, I had the perfect day today. It included some of that chocolate cake you like.
Love,
Erin

Many thanks from the cougar alumni in my area. Do you think Paul could be in charge all season, or would he think it would be funnier for all those people chattering about a national championship right now to be sorely mistaken? Either way, thanks, Paul Neff!
Well, The Paul wasn't given to speculation, much like 93% of Cougar Nation. However, I'm not going to lie when I say he would be thrilled to see another championship in Happy Valley. In either case, I assume they will at least beat Utah if all is still under The Paul's watchful eye.
In any case, it's not like they're the USC Trojans, right Heath?
