Game Thread Ohio State @ Penn State - 09/29/18, 7:30PM (ABC)

And don't forget the new rule that came from that game.

They averaged 3 losses a year the first 4 years of their "new rule"

Then kicked it up to averaging 5 losses a year for the next 6 years of their reign.

Head to head since they took over OSU has eeked out a slight edge of 9-3. In Rhythmic Slappy Valley it's 4-1.

One blocked FG away from 0-5 at home to OSU since they took over the dominant position in the series back in 2005.

Including, as my previous post demonstrates, "Pretty Good Years" in both 2008 and 2012!

2005. Fuck that game.

In the 10 seasons prior to the '05 game, they were 9-3, 11-2, 9-3, 9-3, 10-3, 5-7, 5-6, 9-4, 3-9, 4-7..... In '05, they went 11-1.

Seems like a better description would be "coming out of 5 years of shitty, shitty football. All Praise to Joesus!!"

PSU Thought process:
So... you know... our HC was fired in disgrace for covering up child rape.....
Because... our long time former DC - who left the program abruptly under curious circumstances, was found to have been systematically raping boys...
in PSU facilities....
And.. the team went 8 and fucking 4....
You know what I think? We emblazon that shit on the Ol' Erector Set.

Cuz, that's the sort of shit that makes us PED STATE!

WE ARE!!

or something. Who knows.... sub human freaks.

Yep

11-2 in 2008, they won a share of the B1G and got their asses handed to them by USC in the Rose Bowl.

2008 was special because they overcame the adversity* of all those charges of violence, knife wielding and DUI's with some tough love from Paterno and a lot of stadium cleaning.













*In the days before Fax and Evidents and the cowardly BOT, ESPN blasphemed the good name of St Joesus the Holier than Thou
Suspensions[edit]
Five players were suspended prior to spring drills for their involvement in an October 7 fight at the HUB-Robeson Center during the previous season, including defensive tackle Chris Baker, linebacker NaVorro Bowman, defensive back Knowledge Timmons, defensive tackle Phil Taylor, and receiver Chris Bell.[7] Tight end Andrew Quarless became the sixth player suspended after a DUI incident in March.[8] Bell was later kicked off the team after brandishing a knife at a teammate.[9]

Following spring practice, Baker, Bowman, Quarless, Timmons and Taylor were allowed to rejoin and work out with the team.[10] Baker was sentenced to two years probation.[11]

ESPN's Outside the Lines aired a story on the legal troubles of the Penn State football team on July 27, 2008.[12] The story detailed the increased number of PSU football players that have been arrested during the past few years. Among the statistics presented in the story was that 46 different players since 2002 have been charged with a combined 163 counts that have resulted in 27 players pleading guilty to 45 crimes.[13] Three days after the story aired, Paterno dismissed Baker and Taylor, apparently after another off-campus incident.[14]

Well "a lot" is a bit of an overstatement. I'd go with "some." St. Joe thought they learned their lesson after a week or two.

Fucking fraud.

brandishing a "knife" is also a bit of an understatement.

Former football player Chris Bell was arrested last night after Penn State Police said he threatened another student with an 8-inch blade during a dispute that yielded no injuries in Pollock Dining Commons.
