Michigan in 2013 too. I mean sure, 4 overtimes but Penn State and Michigan in 2013 finished a combined 14-11 (7-9). That was a real battle of the titans.https://bwi.forums.rivals.com/threa...oes-in-football-and-the-wins-ive-seen.100495/
Talking about their favorite "tough" opponents that they (Penn State) beat. OP states games that he saw in person. Of course, 2005 Ohio State makes everyone's list. I just love the "we're back" part. And the fact that 2001 is on that list is funny. Ohio State lost 4 other blargin' games that year - how were they a "tough" opponent?
And now that I look at OP's list, I'm thinking he's a goofball.
Michigan - "Snow Bowl"? GTFO. And 2008? The year Michigan won 3 games??? Great "tough" opponent there.
Wisconsin in 2012 - congratulations: you beat a 4-loss team. Maybe 5 losses. I guess Wisconsin went on to win the Big Ten championship, anyway. Meh.
Michigan State - Before maybe 2010, they were Michigan State. Perennial 4-loss team. You get no credit for any of those games.
And Northwestern - outside of 1995-1996, and maybe a couple of other years, they absolutely do not count as "tough".
As far as being "back", here's a list of the number of losses starting with 2005:
1, 4, 4, 2, 2, 5, 4, 4, 5, 6, 6. Average = 3.9 losses per year.
Yeah, yeah, but... SANCTIONS!!! So take out 2012 and on. 3.1 losses per year.
Ohio State in that same timeframe:
2, 1, 2, 3, 2, 1, 7, 0, 2, 1, 1. Average = 2.0 losses per year.
Ok, SANCTIONS!!! Take out 2011. Meh. Or not. F that. We have as many losses (22) in those 11 years, total, as they do if they can cherry-pick the best 7-year stretch.
My stomach hurt for two days because I was laughing so hard during that clown show!Michigan in 2013 too. I mean sure, 4 overtimes but Penn State and Michigan in 2013 finished a combined 14-11 (7-9). That was a real battle of the titans.
I was literally crying I was laughing so hard, and the game thread here on BP was priceless. Probably the funniest stuff I have ever read on the site.That game was the epitome of a monkey fucking a football in every possible way.
.../snip/...Let's talk about fouls - despite the discrepancy in free throw rate, that was not a poorly-officiated game. Penn State has always fouled at a high rate under Pat Chambers, and combined with Ohio State's athleticism at both levels it created a scenario in which the Nittany Lions had no answer other than sending their opponent to the line. Some of that is on Chambers - not every team with an athletic disadvantage fouls this much this often - and it's certainly an area of concern heading into two very important seasons in the Chambers era.../snip/...
I refuse to move one inch until the complete truth is in the light of day for all to examine. NOT ONE INCH!
bwi the gift that just keeps on giving....Whew! I was starting to think that the Penn State faithful didn't have a reason to dig in their heels.
