Scheelhaase? Just had a spectacular pitch on an option

Anyone in Omaha been to Krug's yet? An old acquaintance of mine is the manager there.

They “specialize” in Bloody Mary’s, which is why I ask.

What happened in this PSU game?

"I want to be a cowboy. I don't want to be a panda. Pandas are boring, stupid and boring. Bad panda!"

JoePa decided to punt instead.

Net punt of 18 yards after the touchback.

Wasn't it like 4th and short?

"I want to be a cowboy. I don't want to be a panda. Pandas are boring, stupid and boring. Bad panda!"

Probably.

Punting at all from the 38 yard line is insane. They now get the ball back in the same part of the field after an absolutely abysmal IU punt.

Can we relegate Minnesota at halftime?

I think half the MAC could give Michigan a better effort than this.

"I want to be a cowboy. I don't want to be a panda. Pandas are boring, stupid and boring. Bad panda!"

I know a geographically continuous school that's a real up and comer and who would love to take Minnesota's place...

No.

"I want to be a cowboy. I don't want to be a panda. Pandas are boring, stupid and boring. Bad panda!"

But... we play defense!

We don’t belong in the Big XII!

Listen, if you think the hazing Bret has planned for Nebraska is bad, just wait 'til you guys try to join up.

Trust me, you’re better off staying in the BXII.

I’m busy thinking about Paaawwls Big Ten hatchet job in SI from earlier this week.

If you just watched PSU's drive end with a fumble inside of the 5

Yeah, others are saying it that Iowa isn't ready yet.

And that’s obviously true for some games, but this weakness against weakness. If it was good offenses and bad defenses on both sides, I could see something. But I just imagine how PSU takes advantage of Iowa’s inconsistent defense.

I think Iowa’s offense is better than Penn State’s defense, and there’s no way I say PSU’s offense is better than anything.

I hope PSU doesn't lose to Indiana. That might fire them up for next week.

byHawkeyeReconon Oct 1, 2011 2:21 PM CDT reply actions  

Agreed.

Much better for them to be depressed at winning, than in existential crisis (if they lose).

We play tackle football.

That seems equally likely.

HOLY FUCK!!!!

AF had that defended pretty well too.

ended with the FB one on one with a corner in a tight space on the goal line

Not when the pitch is that close to the sideline.

AF had Navy.

That was a player’s play.

so today is the day where no one can hold a 3 possession lead. should make for an interesting afternoon

The Indiana 2minute drill is awesome. They've burned all their timeouts and moved the ball 18 yds

Perhaps my best years are gone... but I wouldn't want them back. Not with the fire in me now. No, I wouldn't want them back.

One play left for IU.

Just 2 seconds left.

Officials measured but didn't have the patience to do it correctly and bring the sticks from the opposite side of the field.

...and no one was even in the end zone. He can't throw the ball 50 yards. Horrible. Just horrible.

Dusty was never supposed to be a QB.

He was supposed to be a cowboy.
