what, no one started yet?
I fully expected at least one or two early morning posts by people heading to the game. For all those heading to happy valley – have fun!

All jacked up....
and headed to my kids playoff soccer game. Do you think I will be a little intense on the sideline?!!!! I can’t stand 4:30 games because I bounce off the walls all day!
Go Lions!

Friday Night Tailgate
on the big ten network was all about happy valley. Paternoville was larger than ever! They asked JoePa if he would ever camp out on concrete for five days and his reply was “depends on what she looks like!” Gotta love it!

I watched that last night...
That was awesome to see Paternoville and the student support. I won’t be at the game; and I’ll be watching the tube and listening to the radio. Let’s go Lions; kill the streak!
Everyone have a great time and someone drink a beer for me! My prediction: PSU 45-3.
Joe, what play should we call? Let's try running it up the middle!

Let's go State
This is the year where the 9 game losing streak loses. I can’t wait to see D. Clark and Co. rip the Wolverines to shreds.
I wish I could watch the whole game, but I gotta go watch my Longhorns beat Mizzou.

AHHHH!!
Every year I mark this game down on my calender.. I get sooo antsy when we play Michigan. It’s going to be a good game and not a blow out, although i hope PSU destroys Michigan, but it’s going to be closer than what people think. I still remember 2005’s game like it was yesturday.. and it will be hard to forget unless we end the 9-year losing streak today. Let’s get’m WE ARE… PENN STATE

Iowa up 7-0 and driving.
Wisconsin looks like a team that has given up. No emotion at all. They’re just going through the motions at this point.

“They’re not pretty, they just play football.”
Damn, because I was really hoping we’d be playing their Golf Team in a few weeks!!

Congratulations Wisconsin
You are the new Minnesota. Please take your place at the bottom of the Big Ten standings.
This team is awful. Absolutely no heart. P.J. Hill gets bumped up and takes himself out of the game in the first half. He’s been sitting on the bench ever since. Dude, you’re on a three game losing streak and ABOUT TO LOSE YOUR JOB TO A FRESHMAN. Grow some cajones, man.
The rest of the team just doesn’t care either. No bounce in their step. Poor technique. Just awful.

Not much, but what if they don't have to?
Really, that’s the scenario. Penn State’s offense will have to stutter a bit on the road and Greene will have to be effective (which isn’t a ridiculous notion).
Not calling for an upset or anything, just putting it out there.

Anyone read the game preview at http://mgoblog.com/ ? I would suggest checking it out. It made me laugh.

I did read that
Pretty funny. Hard to believe how realistic the Michigan fans are being about their team. They seem perfectly comfortable with the fact their team is 2-4 and about to be blown out. It’s a pretty foreign notion to our fan base.

There’s really no rational argument to be made on behalf of Michigan. What’s the best thing to say? They have a slightly above average defense?

Still in it with Georgia late in the 4th on the road. I don’t think there’s any question that this is a legitimate top 25 team anymore. Regardless of the outcome, this is the best team they’ve fielded in decades.

Good thing...
were doing so well this year. Our games are consistently being picked up for tv coverage. I live in Omaha via Chicago and i was dying tryin to watch the play by play on btn’s site for the first couple. Chicago is the home of the big ten so I could at least catch a good amount of games last year. On a different note, I was in lincoln for the nebraska-mizzou game and everyone in Omaha thinks Nebraska game environments are the best in the country. It was fun but doesnt hold a candle to Beaver Stadium. Just a little FYI.

When it comes to Ohio State
I think a lot of us forgot that “below average for Ohio State” doesn’t mean “bad”. But hey, we’re in a position where we should be (1) undefeated and (2) a modest favorite in Columbus. It’s still the best case scenario.
Michigan State’s not helping their own cause, either.

Mike is tied up
I guess he’s not posting because he’s got both our kids by himself today while I’m in Chicago. I guarantee he’s watching but he’s also recording to watch it more closely after the kids go to bed.

I realize Hull is that bad.
I figured if there was a switch, it would be to Colasanti. Instead it’s to a true frosh. Colasanti must be bad.
