LSU v. Oregon

September 3, 2011 – LSU and Oregon opened their seasons at Cowboys Stadium in Arlington, Texas in the Cowboys Classic. It was a good game with lots of energy (as expected from a matchup of two top 10 teams). LSU took control early in the second half and came away with a 40-27 win.

I shot LSU in the Cotton Bowl earlier in the year, and was asked by one of the mothers of one of the LSU Golden Girls to take some pictures of the girls again during this game, so a lot of the pictures here are of the Golden Girls, but I think I got a couple decent action shots as well. Hope you like them.

SMU football 2011

Here are some of my favorite pictures from the first four games I have shot of the SMU Mustangs during the 2011 season. So far they are off to a 4-1 start and are receiving votes for the Top 25 after their 40-33 victory over TCU.

Concacaf Gold Cup Semi Finals

Clint Dempsey - USA v. Panama 6-22-11 (36)

Clint Dempsey and teammates celebrate his goal

June 28, 2011 – I had the pleasure of shooting the Concacaf Gold Cup semi finals at Reliant Stadium in Houston. I had shot the Mexican national team a few times before, but had never had the opportunity to shoot the US national team. I have been a fan of the US team for years, and I must say that it was very cool to get a chance to shoot their game. It was a sellout, but the stadium wasn’t full during the US game, but once the Mexico/Honduras game started the place was crazy. The US beat Panama 1-0 in the first game and then Mexico beat Honduras 2-0 to set up the dream matchup of the US v. Mexico in the final at the Rose Bowl.

Cotton Bowl 2011

January 7, 2011: the 75th Annual Cotton Bowl Classic was held at Cowboys Stadium in Arlington, Texas and featured the LSU Tigers of the SEC and the Texas A&M Aggies from the Big 12. The Aggies took a quick 10-0 lead in the first quarter, but it was really all LSU after that with the Tigers winning the game 41-24.
