2. At What point do we decide we all wear white to every game forever. I made that call about 10 minutes ago.
3. I fucking love Penn State.

It's all about recruiting
Since that’s what most coaches do nowadays. Who really cares about coaching when you have the recruits to overwhelm other people?
Of course, there are a couple of coaches still in Div 1-A (or FBS whichever you prefer).

Let this be like the Michigan game where we wake up and start holding them on defense and start scoring on offense.

Penalties
are often a function of getting your ass kicked. although some of these have been ticky tack.

Good evening, folks.
Just got home from NYD traveling and making dinner. Pretty much as expected so far — we match up well except for the middle of our defense, and USC has figured it out. Not sure if we have a way to stop it.

Penn State really hasn't...
…had to face any sophisticated passing offenses this season, and nobody with near the QB or WR talent.
We couldn’t make mistakes today, and we can’t get out of our own way.
