I have to take Penn St. on the road this week. Ohio St. beat down a one deminsional Spartan team that turned the ball over all day long. MSU has a pretty bad defense as well so Ohio St. was finally able to score some touchdowns. Penn St's defense is still suspect for a national championship team but they will be enough to slow down the Buckeyes. Penn St. by a touchdown...
I think the stakes are obvious in this game. If penn st wins, they will be playing for the nat'l championship...no question about it.
The pressure on penn st is unbelievable....playing on the road versus a team who frankly, has decided that they will not be embarassed again. And more importantly in a stadium which for whatever reason, they cannot win in......javon ringer came out and said he wanted to beat ohio st by 4td's and now he looks like a fool.
Ohio st wins a great game in an extrememly hostile environment....penn st will still be bcs bound at 11-1, but just not the bcs nat'l championship game...

Tough game because Penn St has that big play, quick score potential a la LSU & Florida in the last 2 NC games but it will be played in Columbus and that makes a huge difference.
I know PSU slept through the 1st half against Michigan but they looked bad against the run with both Minor & Threet (who runs like a 6.3 40 time) so they need to shore that up or it could be a long day for the Lions

Ohio State destroyed Penn State in Happy Valley last year as 4 point road chalk. Now this exact same team (20 starters back) is home dogs to Penn State one year later??? Ohio State should be favored by a TD. In fact, on day one of the season, I think every human being on the planet that knew anything about football would have taken OSU + the points over PSU in this game. It's all about perception baby!!!
I'll be on the Buckeyes, just like last week.

Penn State has closed the gap no doubt, but not enough to deserve being favored in Columbus. I can't even remember the last time that OSU was a home dog, and this is one of their most talented teams!!!
Ohio State has been underachieving this year. I said it last week and i'll say it again, this team is going to keep climbing up the ladder and at the end of the season, you watch, they'll be in the national title hunt.
Penn State has all the pieces this year, just like 4 years ago, when alot of these seniors were freshman and they went 11-1.... Now they are ready to finish out on top.... They will come away with the win here... I wish I could set up a book and take all that OSU money this weekend!!!! I could retire...:nohead:
GO PSU
GO PSU
if Penn State wins (and i think they do) they will have to win out to be in the BCS championship game (where they will lose)
Nobody in the BCS wants to deal with the Ohio State slow pokes again
They will not be in the championship game even if they win. a 1 win USC team that destroyed them would get in first
that's not really an accurate statement. IT"S NOT THE EXACT SAME TEAM>
First of all the buckeyes have a new QB> An important position I believe.
More importantly Penn State no longer has Morrelli the slug QBing them.
I also believe it will be a good game. Ohio state is already out of the championship picture and I doubt the Big 10 will get 2 BCS teams (slugs like the Big East and ACC have to get berths):lol:
If that's your easiest bet , I suggest you stick to soccer or at least pick up a local paper..
the easiest bet is over and opponents team total over in all North Texas and over in all Rice games..Perhaps you heard of a team called Texas.if you haven't been playing that all season wake up....
if this is so easy how about giving us a td and taking some action?
