Stefen Wisniewski, Andrew Pitz and Josh Hull were all named CoSIDA/ESPN the Magazine First Team Academic All-America today. This matches the entire rest of the Big Ten on the first team.

Also, Megan Hodge was named the CoSIDA/ESPN the Magazine Academic All-American of the Year yesterday.

Well done.

The Athletes for the Kids Auction is ending soon. Lots of neat autographed apparel, posters, balls, etc. And it benefits a great cause - THON.

In the fan shot thread about my PSU-MSU Game Preview, TheJuggerNitt said,
Also, isn’t the purpose of the Cover 3 to prevent the big play, but that it allows the little dink and dunks. The whole "bend but don’t suck"?So, I discuss the difference between the Cover 3 and 4. Quick version, Tom Bradley is smart and Pat Narduzzi is dumb.

And as far as my preview went, I had so much humble pie on Saturday that I won't be having pie on Thursday. I was only wrong about MSU getting an early lead, the d-line generating pressure, DC throwing an INT, huge special teams returns and Penn State putting together drives consisting of more than 3 plays. However, I think I did correctly spell the players names.

Interesting interview with the Orange Bowl Committee.

Patronizing interview to the home town press, are we bowling in Miami or is it agonizing fear of a horse head in his bed alla the Joepather?

Big Ten is only conference with Ohio State, Penn State, and Iowa all with 10 wins so far.

So sounds like an up year for the Big Ten overall.

Don't worry, the site still looks like it's from 1996, but Mr. Anthology has put up his All-PSU Decade team for 2000-2009. A bit early, but it's definitely something to react to.

Full writeup tomorrow, but this should alleviate your post-basketball blues. A quick Google search will show that all of these women uphold the Hottest Team of the Big Ten standards...
