A few things relating to this game:
1. I hope that fans of Penn State, or of any other team that visits Ohio Stadium, NEVER have anything to say about Ohio State's fans like what our fans had to say about their fans last year. The stories I heard about how the Ohio State fans (and band) were treated were horrendous. I know that fans of other teams probably already have similar stories about Ohio State. I don't want that kind of thing to happen tomorrow, or any other game day. I know I'm preaching to the choir on that point, though.
2. At first, I was thinking, "Paul Poz-what's-his-face is coming to the 'Shoe. The guy who stole Hawk's award. I hope they boo that jerk-store all the way to next week." But then I realized that what's-his-name didn't STEAL it. I may have disagreed with whoever voted for him to win the award, but that's a difference of opinion. Maybe I can boo THEM. But to boo him for something he didn't even do is pretty stupid. And I don't like the idea of booing visiting fans, anyway, unless there's a really good reason to. (Maybe the team is full of dirty players, for example.)
3. I don't think this "Sea of Scarlet" thing is going to be noticed much. It might make a mention on the TV broadcast, but it won't look any different from any other game. I just hope that this immitating of Penn State doesn't go on any longer. Next, we'll all hear chants of "WE ARE... OHIO STATE!!!" at the game.
4. On some radio show this morning, they said that Ohio State has won something like 10 games in a row against the spread. That's awesome. Very unusual from 2002.
5. I don't think that Penn State can stop Ohio State's offense. There're too many weapons. It's odd, but the weak point is the field goals, and that's probably about average for the Big Ten. If Ohio State can get to this new Penn State quarterback, I think the defense will be in good shape.
My predictions: Ohio State 915 - Penn State 4.
