Is it me or....
does Bucky have an unbalanced head?
Predicting Penn State's Offensive Scripts since 2005!
It could be you.
Have you had any coffee yet, Kunza?
I’m on cup one. I’ll return after 24 more ounces, when I’m able to evaluate with more certainty.
But yes – it’s very possible the Buckster is asymetrical in the extreme.
Yaaawn……

Wow
Kunza’s right.
Bucky is not only twisted, that dude absolutely paved him to the turf.
Why do I get the feeling our Lion would not only have cold-cocked that guy as soon as he got within an arms length, but also broken out into some ‘Napolean Dynamite’-style move bustin’, just to bullet-point that jerk’s humiliation?

Poor Badger...
Should have went with the left jab. And he has to remember to protect himself at all times. super excited for the game, I’ll be back on at 5 after work and ready to go!

Chris Fowler says...
He expects Quarless & Shuler to play (in his weekly thursday espn.com column). Having either of them would be big.
Its Royster’s time to shine this week.
This will be my first game watching from home...
and I plan to contribute some drunken ridiculousness to the comments tonight!
My goal is to beat wisconsin….by drinking more beers than their points. If they score 23, I’ll drink 24 beers! For this reason alone, I hope our defense locks it down!

That'd be kind of cool
to see the Gameday crew in the stadium like that.
they'd
have to find someplace to set up first. that place is a fuster cluck… although they could always set up between the stadium and frat-houses, that would be interesting
For the glory
I'm out
Have fun today boys & girls. I’m headed out in my Dan Connor jersey to terrorize DC. Watch for me on the news.
Go Lions!

what game to watch now
still 8 hours til game time and need to find something to watch. Should I watch Texas vs OU or should I watch ILL vs Minn
Red River
all the way. Illinois and Minnesota are two teams we no longer care about.

Should be a fun day
Friends of ours are throwing an Oktober fest party this afternoon. We’ll be drinking his home brews. Should be a good time. Then we got the game tonight.
Mike
Black Shoe Diaries
Yeah it should be a great day
Who do we want to win the Texas vs OKLA game?
My thoughts
We want Texas to win. They have a much harder schedule going forward meaning there is a better chance they will get knocked off later. The perfect scenario would be Texas beats Oklahoma, Missouri beats Texas, and then Oklahoma beats Missouri in the Big XII champ game.
Mike
Black Shoe Diaries
Or
Texas lose today then Texas beats Missouri and then Missouri beats Oklahoma.
Agreed....
What a mess… and now with Michy going into a total nosedive and Illinois losing to Minny our conference looks worse than ever…

Dick Rod and company falling apart up there is mildly amusing. Goes to show he may not be the one-man savior that so many people make head coaches out to be. Just look at Skip Holtz after his 3-0 start and where is he now? Greg Schiano? Yeah… I am no hurry to see Joe go

I am getting way too pumped already. I probably should not be drinking liquor already either.
yeah
it’s not even noon here and i’m already buzzing, better switch to beer soon

Oklahoma can't defend kicks either?
I’m glad we aren’t the only ones. The announcers are really harping on it as well.
Rutgers losing (again) 10-0 at halftime
and they only have 2 yards rushing. ESPN anylist just said Teel couldn’t even throw the ball into the ocean if he tried…
I’t s a good thing they stole all of our recruits…those guys suck!
I bleed Blue and White.
how long
until the decent ones they have this year start jumping ship?
They exodus probably starts in an hour and a half.
Instead of making the trip back they stop in State College and refuse to get back on the bus.
But do we really want Rutgers' sloppy 2nds?

What the F**K is wrong with Illinois
They look like shit against Minnesota. Is Minn really that good, or has Illinois just given up hope on the rest of the season?
I bleed Blue and White.
Ted Roof
I dont know what he did but I just read from Adam Rittenberg he retooled all of the Minn D. They went from dead last in YPG given up to something ridiculous. Either that or its the Juice hangover from trading places with Major Wright last week @ Mich

Speaking of hangovers...
I am dreading tomorrow. Something tells me tonight is going to be a shit-show. Shit-show are fun, but the day after sucks.
And if PSU wins, it might be the first ever diarrhea-show. 2 girls, 1 cup!

If Texas beats OU, does OU drop below PSU (assuming we win)
Or do they stay top 5 because they lost to the #5 team in the country in a close game?
I bleed Blue and White.
drop 5-7 spots
You’re held to a higher standard as a Top 5 team. Alabama fell 2 spots for beating Kentucky by 3.
but
The teams we beat are not looking all that good anymore. Look at ILL today.
We won't get knocked
if Illinois loses. It doesn’t really matter that much. If we lost to them then thats one thing, but its no big deal. Illinois is the only team that is hurt by their play.
Wow, the refs
are really screwing OU. Two terrible calls in a row gives Texas the lead. Not that I mind much, but it sucks to see a team possibly lose because of terrible officiating.
Oh OhOhOh Oh Oh!
yeah
it reminds me of something I’ve seen happen in the Big 10 before, who were those games between again?
Oh, you must be talking about the classic
Indiana – Minnesota game in 87….right? I can’t think of any others!

Michigan is awful
But its still hard to comprehend how bad they really are. Even in a down year this Toledo team should be a walkthrough. If we seriously don’t pound them next week I’m going to be pissed.
This really hurts big10
Michigan is killing us…our SoS will take a beating unless Ill and UM wake up….
Is it just me, or is Kirk Herbstreet
the most objective CFB commentator around? I know he’s a former buckeye, but he’s legit.
I bleed Blue and White.
I hope they get beat for the sake of embarrassment
I can still find plenty of reasons to get excited for next week even with a 2-4 scUM team coming in
oh that's not hard to find a way to get excited
Just think about the past 9 years
exactly my point
And I’ll be drunk and rowdy all day before the game in the IM fields, it won’t be hard to get fired up.
Who all is going next week?
Nice 2 play 75 yard TD drive by Illinois
Man am I glad Minnesota isn’t on our schedule this year. That would be a terrifying game.
We need a "I'm drunk, let me re-post" button

has
holding become a judgment call? it happens so often but seems to so rarely be called.
I think officials go by the degree of it
Otherwise there would be holding on every play. Seriously.
that was a great hit
Shipley looks a great player
The knee might be down, but that was a HORSE COLLAR tackle
should be a Texas TD

So, to recap the noon games...
Illinois tries to make a second half comeback. Then decides against that. Then decides to try it again. Then no. Then yes. Then no.
Michigan makes a mockery of themselves. Screw the “conferences”, I’m voting Toledo’s WR Nick Moore as Big Ten offensive player of the week.
Red River Rivalry game has been fun to watch – such an awesome show. The football is okay, but these penalties and flops and reviews. Oh the drama is fantastic!
On a lesser note, has anybody seen where that East Carolina bandwagon drove off to? I mean, I figured the wheels would start to get shaky after everyone jumped on after week 2. But ouch – 1-3 since then, and even their win over Tulane wasn’t all the impressive.
Ok, I’m out for a bit – off to West Chester, PA to watch the Penn State Icers. Will likely mean that I’ll have to catch most of the first quarter on the radio during the drive home – that just means i’ll have to catch up on the drinking very quickly.
Later and go Icers!
Man we need a D1 team

its early, but
UNC looks a bit overrated and maybe ND really is underrated.
I can’t believe I just wrote that. I must be drunk already.
Texas OU.......
reminded me of a game a Big 10 game a few years ago where two rivals made each other look much better than they ended up being. Fun game to watch, but I a not convinced that either team is as good as the press that Texas is going to get this week for winning. Neither team to this point had played anyone if I am not mistaken, so what do we really know about either of them.
Eric Watters Atlanta, Ga.
Penn state really hasn't played anyone either
I mean we can say they played ILL but they lost today to Minn. We won’t know anything til we face OSU. That game will be the deciding game if/when we make it threw the game tonight.
Typical Ron Zook
Eventually Illinois is going to fire Ron Zook, and games like that are why. Beat Ohio State, lose to Iowa, beat Michigan, lose to Minnesota.

We’ll know a lot more about PSU tonight, hopefully.

My Wife left for the afternoon
There is a case of beer in the fridge, and I have strict instructions to rake leaves.
Man is she going to be pissed when she gets home.

tell her
you’re trying to be as efficient as possible and waiting until late November when all the leaves are off the trees…
and if that doesn’t work tell her you accidently got drunk..
The latter she'll believe
That’s the problem
"I honestly think the "Spread HD" is going to work pretty well, and we’ll be just fine this year". - 8-27-2008
Even better idea. Tell her you respect her so much
that you raked the leaves as soon as she pulled out of the driveway. By the time she got home, the wind had picked up and blew all those NEW leaves all over the lawn.

Ohio State
looks beatable. I don’t want to look ahead considering we haven’t even started the game against U-Dubb, but OSU looks mediocre, at least for today. Terrelle Pryor is a less experienced, way less accurate version of Juice Williams (Halftime stats: 6-9 for 66 yards passing). This team can be beaten. Purdue was a few plays short of tying this game, or at least keeping it competitive. Penn State can beat Ohio State. But lets take care of the Badgers first.
Oh OhOhOh Oh Oh!

don't have OSU game....
but highlights look pretty similar to our game vs Purdue. Except all OSU points off of blocked putn and TO in Purdue’s end of field…….OSU should have killed these guys in Columbus….
Pryor is still a bit hesitant
You can see some of his youth as he takes a LONG time to decide to run or throw. He’s lucky he has a good line ahead of him to give him decent time and I think he will have a harder time against a god pash rush and delayed or zone blitzing. Let’s face it, Purdue is not that good. We will all find out so much more in the next few weeks and I am more and more certain that our game on th 25th will decide the Big 10 and our BCS futures

13-3?
I think conditioning will be the difference in the long run. Our first 4 games we put away by the 3rd quarter and no other B10 team has had that easy going, right now everyone OSU and Wiscy and MSU have had to slam out 24+ quarters of action. Whereas we are around 20. Honestly, I think it will come down to who can outlast who over 11 games. So far we’ve been fortunate.

UNC
just got screwed. What a terrible call on the review of the catch. Is Lou Holtz managing the replay?
Oh OhOhOh Oh Oh!
this UNC game
is a freakin mess. no way you rewind the clock.
If it's a catch
the games over. Which is what they called.
If it’s a fumble, also over.
If ND gets another play, they’ll change the replay rules in the off season.

any part of a person other than his hand or foot touch the ground. Rule 4-2-1

Interesting.........
I thought that guys shoulders were on the ground before he fumbled. Guess I was wrong.

Part of me thinks
that the right call was the game was over, and they called whatever they needed too to make that occur. When I saw it at full spped I thought it was a catch.

I got that feeling too.........
about calling what was necessary to end the game.

Alright..........
ready to tip back a Hawaiian Punch and Vodka in my Penn State mugg. Ran out of sweet tea so had to improvise.
Let’s go State.

PSU Shirt on.... Done
New Beer done. Food for game will be done in 10 minutes. Must take a piss before the game so I don’t have to move.
lol
You guys hear Holtz just give that shot to May about ND’s schedule being weak because they have teams like Pitt on it? nice.

Crap
Can you DVR 2 shows at once? PSU Women’s V-Ball (oh yeah – waaay hot) airs at 8 on BTN. I also want to record this game.
Anyone know?

Hmmm
My Hungarian fiancee says I can DVR 2 but I have to be watching one of them.
So what happens if I switch channels to get LSU / Fla updates? Do I screw up the game recording?

Random story........My Buddy..........
from college got drunk on Wedneday night and came home and bought a plane ticket to Dallas from DC. Woke up Thursday, forgot he bought it……..saw his email confirmation of the purchase and said……..guess I got to go. Got a ticket to the Texas OU game for face. Said it was a blast.

not me
full of wings, now going to pound some PBR
Nice Kick coverage
that is what I like to see
God Damn it
Just like last week.
GOt a cahnce to grab the momentum, and blew it. Shit.

Wisky really wants to slow this game down
they are in no hurry
That's a turnover
"I honestly think the "Spread HD" is going to work pretty well, and we’ll be just fine this year". - 8-27-2008
i would like to see...
a TD catch by Norwood….good way to welcome him back
excellent run
and way to get DWill an easy catch
Clark thorws the ball to high
it is going to get someone hurt :(
decent 5 yard gain by Butler
plus that is a different look than we’ve seen
He should be
"I honestly think the "Spread HD" is going to work pretty well, and we’ll be just fine this year". - 8-27-2008
Nice kick...But
these guys are playing like the ball is dipped in butter. And clark is high on passes.
Need to calm down
we always do better in 2nd Q as long as we can make it threw the first quarter we do better.
If Wisc keeps running it...
This game is going to be over in no time. The clock is running like crazy
Big. Slow.
"I honestly think the "Spread HD" is going to work pretty well, and we’ll be just fine this year". - 8-27-2008
Time to make them pay.
"I honestly think the "Spread HD" is going to work pretty well, and we’ll be just fine this year". - 8-27-2008
It's there
We should be able to get it clark is not on tonight yet
Were KILLING ourselves
The D can’t hold out forever, we need points.

the play action on second down...
will set up the run later on down the road. they can’t stop royster
by markmayisadoosh on Oct 11, 2008 8:30 PM EDT reply actions
They have not throw 1 pass yet
We need to score to make them pass
A little
uneasy here.
I feel like Wisconsin’s D is ripe for ripping apart, but PSU is not quite doing it. The D is playing well, but it can’t be expected to keep stopping a pretty powerful Wisconsin offense.
Little Blue
The nice thing about Michigan playing early is that we can see them get hammered all day in the highlights
Keep it in perspective
We should be killing these guys
"I honestly think the "Spread HD" is going to work pretty well, and we’ll be just fine this year". - 8-27-2008
Can you
believe the frakin’s filed position we’ve had any only 3 points to show?!
End of 1st Q, we should be up 14-0
but having some points on Wisky is good period. Must score a TD on this possession.
We will get it started now
It is the 2nd Quarter and this where we will put up 14+ points
I see it happening.
I'm with you
I think we score on this and maybe get a turnover to push this game
This Kool-aid is delicious
John Madden told me 90% of the game was half-mental...

Hey guys
Not pleased with the first quarter. Defense is playing awesome, but we should be up 21-0 right now.
I realize it’s getting slow in here so we’ll start a new thread at halftime.

He we good
Now that BSD is here we will score he is good luck
this offense is ready to explode
they are settling down
Here we go
Nice touchdown. I was getting scared there when we got stuffed running it on 1st and 2nd down.

Big drive
Nice drive

way too much
I think Horse N Buggy has finally had too much to drink
Posted 3 hours too late...but correct
I bleed Blue and White.
by Horse N Buggy on Oct 11, 2008 8:52 PM EDT up reply actions
We need a turnover here
That would help change this game totally
Only a matter of time
This insane field position was going to pay off eventually. Nice that it’s actually with a TD.
(for those curious, Icers did win 6-3)
Disagree..
With all due respect..I disagree.
This is truly our first true test of the year. We’re the visitors. We’re contollinf\g the game from a defensive perspective. The Badgers are a good team and have had PSU’s # for the past few years.
All things considered…i am pretty stoked right now. We are controlling a Wisconsin team that has controlled most of their games in the first 3 q’s, an we’re ahead. I like what I see so far.
We Are….

I don't want to get to cocky
I don’t want to leave up yet. Keep the pedal to the metal
Guys, lets remember, this game is far from over. We gotta keep going, score some more
Wisky is NOT as bad as their record.
You might have to be a bit louder...
Me thinks much of the contingent will have trouble hearing you over their “adult beverages”
They can't pass
Their offensive line is too slow.
They have to run on every play.

the SEC
is absolutely soft this year. just waiting for ESPN to stop riding them so hard
by markmayisadoosh on Oct 11, 2008 8:57 PM EDT up reply actions
thats not my worst case scenario
we have three quarters more to go for that
It was totally obvious too.
The other guy crossing the middle wasn’t even looking for the ball. He was looking for Davis and adjusted his route to pick him off. Totally blatant.

Crap
They are going to score here. Lets hold them to a field goal
Linebackers
We need Sean Lee. Crap runs like that are losses with a solid LB corps. PSU simply is too untested and young there.
Hull will be good next year
but where do we put Lee in the middle or on the end
the holes close a bit faster against the good teams
Clark will learn that
Now we need to hold them
We have to hold them here
Worst part of that touchdown
was that we let the crowd back into it. That fired up their defense.

Maybin.........
is an animal.
Sometimes people just need their opportunity. Not everybody can work their way into the spotlight. Some people need to be literally given the oppty and then they step it up.
Eric Watters Atlanta, Ga.
Crazy thing is
We still have Mo Evans and since he’s not having such a great year, he’ll be back in 2009.
WOOOO
that is what we needed :) this is the game that I wanted
now you're talking
why not see if you can get some Scirroto and Bowman in their too?
God bless Alan Evridge

But OSU scores 9 points on offense against Purdue………hmmm.

line of the night:
“If the ball touches the ground it is incomplete by rule.”

Put him in the booth...
WIth John Madden, Joe Morgan and Tim McCarver.
Then watch the world implode.
Bounced
Woof. I don’t like the free discussion for Wisconsin.
I know I am negative tonight, but I want to keep on sports cloud nine.
My FIghtin’ Phils are up 2-0. Penn State looks strong.
I can’t live without going into tomorrow morning still happy.
