PSU v. Texas - Fiesta Bowl 2010

phase 1: relentlessly under-represent the talent and potential a team has, look the other way when they do something well and pick their flaws out readily. Repeatedly bring up the age of their coach, did you know he’s like, crazy old?

phase 2: continue bashing a team, but relectantly and backhandedly admit they could be good and may even win their conference, even if they still are a bad team with an old coach. a really old coach.

phase 3: limit bashing to realistic concerns, admit they’re good enough to win it all even though they probably won’t. Oh and their coach is still old, and their uniforms are still boring.

We’ll see how long it takes the media to come around

I shall ask someone to summon Zug to vaporize you

we’re a full week into spring camp, so these assessments have to be pretty accurate at this point. Look for PSU to go 7-5 this year and play in the Fiesta Bowl.

the rap on PSU is always going to be the same old stuff. Slow, Predictable, Old Coach, Big 10 blows…….etc etc. Too many items to address individually.

So just do what I do. Anytime you hear somebody knock PSU, ask them to start naming teams they think are stronger programs over the last 4 years. When they get to 7 or 8 even 10 teams and can’t come up with anymore, just point out that fact and let them chew on it for a while. Then say…….so you mean to tell me you can’t name more than 10 teams out of 120 that are playing big boy football who are better than PSU right now ? Then just rest your case.
