The sun came up the next morning. Can you believe this? It was a miracle!!!
Let me give you ALL something to hang on to and a reason to keep cheering like maniacs.
Weeks 1 thru 8 AP rankings in 2016....PENN STATE nowhere to be found
Week 9 AP rankings in 2016....PENN STATE at #24
Week 10 CFP Rankings in 2016....PENN STATE at #12
Week 11 CFP Rankings in 2016....PENN STATE at #10
Week 12 CFP Rankings in 2016....PENN STATE at #8
Week 13 & 14 CFP Rankings in 2016....PENN STATE at #7
Week 15 CFP Rankings in 2016....PENN STATE at #5
Now, I am no expert, but it seems to me if you have one loss to a top 4 team and you keep winning, chances are with 10 weeks to go, you are still in the hunt. In fact, in 2016, some #2 ranked team lost to an unranked team and still made the playoffs....hmmm. Now who might that be?
Ohio State is not a lock to run the table. The have some quality games to get through still. Michigan and Michigan State can give them a run. Wisconsin in a championship game can give them run. Indiana could pull the upset of the year for us....they have nothing to lose and can throw the kitchen sink at them.
If both, Penn State and Ohio State run the table, I think they after Saturdays game, Penn State stands a solid chance of getting in. Too many teams ahead of them have to lose at least one game....they play each other.
Lets keep the faith! Lots can happen in the next 10 weeks.
