Game Thread Penn State at tOSU, Nov 19, 3:30 ET, ABC

Anyone hear any rumblings about the game being cancelled? I'm hearing from a PSU fan (good source) it is being considered. PSU cancels last two games. Not sure how much is fact or just speculation. It does make sense from PSU's perspective. I'd hate it for our Bucks though.

I doubt it. If anything, they would've cancelled the last 3 games. I'm not sure what the sense is behind playing one game then cancelling the last two.

I agree. Although last weeks game was at home. The fans needed that. The next two are road games. I wouldn't be suprised at anything in this mess. PSU set the standard for scandals.

Their defense has played much, much better than ours this season. We gave up 20 to Indiana, for crying out loud, and then 26 to Purdue. The PSU DL is one of the best in the nation, and they'll be able to pack the box against Bollman's Special Sauce (predictable run game with deep throws and no misdirection).

Give me 2:1 odds and I'll put half my vcash on the line at -19.5. Seriously.

I just have no confidence whatever in this team. Love Brax, love Boom, love the potential. Love Shazier, Roby, and the DLine, but with Big Hank and Sweat out, I see scheiss flying off the propellers this weekend.
Having a good defense is a waste of time against us.

boo, my flight to Orlando was pushed back to arrive at 5:30 pm instead of 3pm. I planned this whole "family disney vacation" BS around OSU football and I'm still going to miss the game. At least I arrive back to Dayton the Friday before the scUM game so there should be no problem there.

Interesting scenario:

Two teams with Interim Head Coaches.

Two teams embroiled by adversity and external and internal strife.

Should be interesting...the human drama has put the game on the back page in many ways.

Two of my favorite head coaches in the past have succumbed to situations that could have prevented so much.

Two of my favorite teams. I love the simplicity of Penn State. Uniforms-offense and defense.

But when all is said and done----GO BUCKS!

Raise the ticket price by $10 per head and replace the game with an Urban Meyer press conference.

I was referring to Penn State gate receipts.

vs Nebraska was a home game for them so it would take an act of god for them to give it up. Two away games are easier to cancel 'for the sake of the children'.

I want to say that the Bucks will absolutely curb stomp Penn State.

But, I just watched some of the Purdue game again...and it will take a completely different team. That game was damn ugly.

I think they will be ready for this game, win it for the seniors, find their mojo and the d gets healthy against a shitty offense. 28-10 Bucks.
