YAY HOOPS: Penn State at Michigan Live Game Thread (S#!T'S ABOUT TO GET REAL B1G)

Dumb and Dumber 'There's a Chance' (via RudyFamily)

And so it begins: The inevitably brutal campaign otherwise known as the Big Ten season is upon us. Penn State (8-5) opens up the B1G action this year in Ann Arbor, where they will face a veteran Michigan (10-2) squad that appears to be clicking on all cylinders as they enter into B1G competition looking to be a serious contender for the conference crown. Suffice it to say, this should be the young Lions' stiffest challenge since playing Kentucky at the Mohegan Sun back in November. TRANSLATION: This could get ugly...fast.

Tip off is at 7:30 PM ET on BTN with Dave Revsine and Jim Jackson calling the action. If you don't get BTN or are one of those hipsters who thinks they're too cool to own a TV, you can listen to Steve Jones and Dick Jerardi whisper sweet nothings in your ears on Sirius Channel 131, XM Channel 191, or one of these local radio affiliates.

And as always, the usual open thread rules apply. I would provide visual examples, but that would get me into hot water with SBN lawyers. You know the drill by now, though. Commence commentary.
