You can not imagine how much I hope I am wrong about all this.  Here in Columbus the weather will not be good; cold, rainy and maybe some snow. The news  makes out like its going to be close but believe me they are already looking to being undefeated and the CFP. They fear Michigan more than this one. I hate to say it and would give almost anything for it not to be so, but I figure OSU by 14-17 points, 34-17 final. They will throw us silly since we have not defended the pass and most likely will not do so in this game.  Their run game will keep us honest and the receivers will kill us. I had figured maybe 11-2 at best and the RB but the Minnie ooops killed that.

Call me a dreaming old fart, but for some reason I have visions of the 1987 Fiesta Bowl dancing through my head.  I can still see the glazed look in Vinnie's eyes as the game wore on.

Not sure why they'd fear Mich more than PSU, but whatever floats their boat.

Ohio st ain’t see an offense even close to what we’ve got. Wisconsin is big a d slow and we have a lot more weapons at the skilled positions. If KJ a d Cain play we have a good chance to beat Ohio st. In all honesty I just don’t know how good Ohio st is because Wisconsin is the only team they’ve played that deserves to go to a bowl. We gotta get Cain and Hamler back and get some pressure on fields and we’ve got just as good a chance to win as Ohio st. We will see Saturday brother.

So because they are confident in Columbus you're sad and now think we have no shot? LOL, who cares which team they fear more

Far too often the Penn State defense has allowed an opposing QB to look like a Heisman candidate.  Ohio State has a quarterback who is a legitimate Heisman candidate and he is complemented by very talented running backs and receivers.  On the defensive side, they are strong as well.  I think Ohio State will use this as a “statement game”.  

I hope my assessment is wrong but I will not watch.  I am headed to Birmingham to watch UAB play La Tech.

I hear the QB stuff all the time. The big 10 might just have a lot of good QB’s every  year.each power 5 conference are stronger at different positions and IMO the big 10 is better at QB than all the other conferences. Just look at all the great QB’s that come out of the big 10. Usually most of the big 10 teams have good QB’s and is it possible we think we make ‘em look good is because we are watching’em because we are playing’em. All the big 10 QB’s probably play good every game.

You ain't no old fart dreaming!! My old man just said Penn State hasn't played their best game of the year and it is going to be played this Saturday. Law of average is up and Fields will throw two interceptions and the Lion's win!  Got to support my dad, he hasn't let me down yet!!!

 

GO STATE!!

Southern,

You are always positive and that is admirable.  Also, I don’t remember a time when you were wrong.

Have an awesome remainder of the week and weekend.

Your dad is a smart man.  I like his thinking!  You're also a smart man for siding with him (a chip off the old block I'm sure, lol).

Lion.  I don't care either who they fear but you have to live here to understand that. No I am not sad and think just because they do here that we have no chance. I think we have no chance because  we will be out coached again on both sides of the ball, we will be unimaginative, try the same things again and again when they don't work and our secondary will be trashed.  Just watch the game and see how close I come .. AND ....I HOPE I AM WRONG AND YOU CAN ALL DUMP ON ME : )))

The last 5 years James Franklin has won more games in the big 10 than any other coach so how does he get out coached so much on both sides of the ball? The wins don’t back it up. Usually when we lose it’s because the other team is better.

They need to show up and have a good game for us to win. I think they’ll be ready to play.

Southern you are right on overall record. I don't know what it is but what is his overall record against OSU, MSU, Mich, Iowa and in bowl games. I bet it is not as good. Big games against top coaches. When I refer to both sides of the ball I mean O and D coaches. Mr Franklin IS  a very good recruiter.

He's 1-3 vs. Ohio State in the last 4 years
He's 2-2 vs. MSU & Michigan in the last 4 years
If we beat RU, he will have been 23-1 vs. everyone else in the Big Ten over the past 4 years.

That's not bad at all.

He’s dominated Iowa and has won 5 games against the others. He’s also dominated Wisconsin and won a couple of bowl games.

I’m proud of this team. What started out looking like a blow out when it went 21-0, they came back ( albeit with the help of a few turnovers) but they didn’t quit and played Ohio state closer than anyone. It seemed OSU had EVERYTHING going it’s way..home game, PSU  banged up players and let’s not forget their pact with Satan allowing them to get Justin Fields out of nowhere plus Chase Young completing a laughable suspension. Yet the good guys hung in there and will likely end the regular season 10-2, far better anyone gave them credit.

Ohio State loses quite a lot next year, IMO we should win the Big in 2020.

We have competed against OSU better than anyone.  We beat them next year AND win the East and we are back and the recruiting advantage in the Big10 is ours.

I certainly feel like the PSU v OSU game next year will be for the title again. Michigan may have something to say about it, however they're replacing a quarterback and most of their offensive line. Also lose most of their secondary
