Even a Sooner fan couldn't help but celebrate

As we all know, Buff Football has languished in mediocrity and controversy for quite some time. We'd hoped that the changing of the guard at CU would signal a new beginning. Of course at first, the new guard reaped a pitiful season of 2-10. But this season seemed to hold promise of a turn-around. First, an overtime victory over CSU. Next a squandered chance at a rode win at ASU. Then a close, but not really close loss to FSU. Then at last the pieces began to come together with a blowout win over Miami of Ohio. And finally, finally... a huge win over arguably the best team in all the land, the Oklahoma Sooners. Mere words cannot describe the significance of such a win. No, not words but a feeling. It was palpable. The victory signified nothing less than the rebirth of a great program, CU Buff Football is back.

So palpable in fact was the feeling that even a Sooner fan and proud alumnus was caught up in it. Yes our own dear Timolyn Esson who was as they say "Sooner born, Sooner bred and when she dies she'll be Sooner dead" was so caught in the moment of a great Buff rebirth that she stormed the field with thousands of other crazies! A Sooner celebrating the Buff upset.

Little did she know that we had planted a small video camera in her hat that day. Footage below...
