A friend of mine is taking an RV trip with coworkers (mostly PSU fans) from NYC to State College.

In the spirit of Halloween so he's going as full on Jim Tressel. :laugh:

I wish I was going, I've always wanted to experience Happy Valley as the enemy.

And it's Halloween weekend. State college is always a great time that weekend

Having lived in State College for 11 years until recently there is no thinking about it....Penn State sees Ohio State as their "Michigan" game. The town goes crazy on Ohio State Week.

Penn State fans generally do not understand that Ohio State considers the Penn State game as big but NOTHING in comparison to The Game. I've tried to explain it to a few of my co-workers but they just don't get it. They seriously think Ohio State-Penn State is a more natural rivalry than Ohio State-Michigan.

That all being said, they're starting to call Penn State, "O'Brien's Lions" in Happy Valley and for good reason. O'Brien has coached a depleted, scandal-ravaged team to a 5-2 mark going into this weekend.

You can be sure 110,00 will fill Beaver Stadium. The"White Out" is a go and the house will be rocking. This is PSU's "bowl game" for the next few years.

Penn State 24

Actually I will definitely be watching; can't get enough of watching a world class program compete on the field.

People ask me all the time why I have Ohio plates on my car and they always ask me if I'm an Ohio st fan. I tell them notre dame and there like at least it's not Ohio st lol. Btw I keep my Ohio plates on my car cause I'm a cheap ass and don't wanna pay for inspections lol. I have pa plates on my newer car though

How did Partly Cloudy get in on that tackle on post #1? Did he get pushed into the action? Boren will be the starting MLB from here on out Licking Cnty All-Stars.

With the exception of the Nebraska game, I have my doubts the Buckeyes are capable of - um - "raping" anyone. :huh:

If Ohio State shows up and plays to their talent level, Penn State cannot win this game. Unfortunately that has not happened very often this year. Penn State is slow and unathletic on both sides of the ball, but they are playing way harder than Ohio State right now. If Miller plays Ohio State will get the win 31-24 if not it's a toss up.

PSU wins, because our defense is fucking terrible and Braxton Miller is the most talented vagina I've seen since college.

Urban Meyer will update Braxton Miller's status in about an hour. The OSU quarterback is listed as the starter on the depth chart.

Thanks, I'm anxious to hear what happened.
