My Nittany Lions are somehow 8-1 with not one but two bad quarterbacks. It's beyond amazing...only losing to a God's conference team called Alabama. I credit the scheduling!! 8-4 may be in the cards though...now play Hornpuskers, then go to Buckeye land, and Badger land. No more Iotas or Hoosiers on the schedule. Meat Chicken isn't on our schedule. I love it...Joe's now like your senile great-grandpa, he's gone beyond grandpa stage!

...his 62nd year has been pretty fun!!

Ordinarily I would not allow enemy sporty news here, but since you are a sr. writer for this fine thread----why,I'll allow it.


Did not look at the link as I have a very weak stomach.

State Penn is an interesting team in that the defense seems super duper and the offense.... not sa hot.I'd rather have it that way than the reverse.If they win the rest of their games, then they're in that title game.It seems anyone can beat anyone in the BI this year.Really.Plus I think State Penn is the only team that controls their fate.

you have to realize I am a Penn State alumni, so I plead the 5th! I still pull for the buckeyes but only if my boys are in death mode first! With us in control of the division I'm pulling for a spanking of the Buckeyes for sure this year. I love Joe too. He was in Canton recruiting a player at my Dad's school during basketball season and talked to my parents and told them he would take me anything they wanted when he got back to State College. My parents stupidly said no...they didn't realize I would have become a dormitory legend if Joe Pa came up to deliver me something!!

That is a pretty good story...why did they say no?




Anyways, we'll see what happens.Ohio State is very talented on both sides of the ball, but very young and young teams can regress.Just a very unpredictable year, week to week in this conference.


The only sure thing is the Vulvarenes losing to Ohio State.

I really enjoyed saying the above.

I'm thinking they weren't thinking Paterno was gonna show up at a silly high school basketball game and I really didn't need anything most likely! Kid he was recruiting ended up going to Minnesota and not being very good! fickell was placed into one of the worst situations an OSU coach can be put into. I'm happy he got a couple really nice wins under his belt. Miller could end up being a good one. Hope he acts better than Pryor. That first qb they played was ungodly bad. I got the feeling Pryor was to Tressell what James was to Mike Brown. coddling million dollar talents with negative million dollar brains. (My parents were huge Tressel fans as they both went to Baldwin-Wallace in the 50s where his dad was coaching...his Dad was not a conservative coach which is funny as conservative as he was. I rememeber going to some of their games in the 70s and they passed a ton which was unusual back then and saw a guy do a cartwheel going in motion once. I guess LEe Tressel occasionally did this as a distraction...very un Jim-Tressel like!!)

Too bad...boy, what a story you could be telling.


Oh Miller is diametrically opposed to Pryor....seems very,very modest.He will be an A#1 guy here.I'm already convinced. I'm with you on Fickel.Ohio State fans can be brutal for no reason other than they think we should always be way up there.You're very right;he was handed about as tough a situation as one could take.....he's getting them there now.Hope he's back.


I feel the same about Tressel as you.

Have to fetch an appley pie.

Iota beats the vulverines clyde...the slip into the abyss for them once again as you called it!!

:D



Boy did Ohio State regress.

They are still not a really,really good team.

Playing at Purplexed next Saturday now looks very iffy...but when The Vulvarenes lose--it's a good day.More coming.

Maybe Purdon't won't be so hard next week.



And Southeastern is beating the CornFucl<ers 7-3 at the half!! AT the CF's place.

The Fucl<ers only have 3!...against Southeastern!




















thud

Southeastern won....yay!!



The Big I is almost at complete parity.

Ohio State must get bettah in order to stand out from mediocrity.

I do know State Penn is possibly the King...but we'll see.

I'd have to check the stats clyde, but I think Earl Campbell ran for over 100 against the Browns today too. they ran out of regular backs to go for over 100.

!!




I believe Bush's wife was the other back to go over 100 in this game.

Cleveland is playing at home this week ( sorry,Browns fans) to the Rams...the Browns less 3 is the line.



Give those 3 to St.Louis, of course, and in turn give the Browns 9 in consideration of their coach---Mr. Rogers.

So it's St.Louis minus 6.

Take St. Louis.

Cleveland Browns coach,Mr. Rogers, showing his motivational wizardry in addressing the Browns football team.

The Coach gained his fame from,oddly enough, helping Mike Tyson through a particularly troubled time:

I am withdrawing my buy signal on Nebraska.

It needs further scrutiny....never doubt the power of WrongTurno tears.

But is it enough?




This is the question;and so...I need to put my Deb-O-Deb thinking cap on.

I may have put my college picky-poo's in - ALAN's - room...ah furget.



But....it's also the last home game this year for StatePenn.

The CornFucl<ers aren't nearly good enough to overcome all these motivational factors. The StatePenn players will come out like savage meat eaters who have not tasted blood nor munched for 7 days.


Take StatePenn getting 3.

I would have to question that. Before the horrendous story was made public, the team feasted on easy teams both out of and in conference. Well, most of them were pretty close so feasting isn't really a proper term. I'd have to think football is the furthest thing from their minds. Feel bad for the seniors as senior day has become a bit overshadowed by "current events". They may be the college version of the Bengals....great record, but really how good?? then the stuff came rolling out. Puckers very overrated but did blow out Mich State...I think they simply bounced against Southeastern looking ahead to State Penn. I think karma will come full circle and Joe Pa has won his last game in Happy Valley. It is now Depressed Valley. Puckers, Buckeyes and Badgers on the road and 6th place SEC team in Bowl game. My Lions go 8-5. Sadly networks now slobbering for rights for Joe's last game in the weedeater-outback-blockbuster bowl. That is why trustees should just fire him right now to avoid that pathetic forthcoming spectacle.

Thank you.





SportyFans....take the CornFucl<ers and give the 3.

thankfully they just did so the spectacle will not occur.
