I think Penn St is able to win because they are often a second level Big 10 team and are playing second level SEC teams and even though it seems that this year the SEC has been the far better conference, usually the two are pretty evenly matched once you get past the top teams. Eight times out of 10 though, the top two from the SEC will beat the top two from the Big 10. Penn St and some other B-10 schools can compete with some SEC schools. But in any given year, if Penn St ends up as the best B-10 school, they'd likely suffer the same fate as OSU does when they play the best SEC school.

Like Michigan defeating one of the teams in the sec champ. game.
In their own backyard.
Eauxh...forgot to clarify...that was UNRANKED Michigan beating 12TH RANKED in all the land Florida.
