Penn State Cult (Joe Knew)

This started in our thread about Nebraska and how they "want to rejoin the Big 12". That's why I linked that. BWI's thread on it was pretty funny. Here's a link to Page 2:

BWI fans want to see Nebraska leave so it Penn State can follow them out. Why? Well, they hate the Big Ten, of course. One reason:

"Warning, Penn State, excessive crowd noise" "Penn State will be charged a timeout"

--This happened. At Beaver Stadium. On Penn State. In Penn State's second ever home conference game. Two years after being made to WAIT two years just to play.(Nebraska, Rutgers, and Maryland did not have to wait a single year). After 4 schools voted AGAINST Penn State joining(Nebraska, Rutgers, and Maryland were unanimous votes).

Yeah... I remember in 1986 (or 1988) Ohio State got in trouble for excessive crowd noise against Michigan. Maybe it was just a warning. Why don't they call that anymore?

Oh... maybe this answers that:

Rule changes[edit]
There are several rules that have changed for the 2006 season.[4] Following are some highlights:
  • The referee may no longer stop the game due to excessive crowd noise.
Hm. I really didn't know that.

Edit - oops. I just noticed that was FCS rules. I wonder if FBS rules were also changed.

They bitch about things that are bad calls, and things that they decided were bad calls but really were correct. But this bitch of theirs is the dumbest fucking one they have. It was a rule back then. It was called on more than just them. ND got it called on us while we kicked their asses in the Shoe. It. Was. A. Rule.

Fucking idiots.

ZURP="Yeah - I used to have to drive to some dinky town just north of State College about once a year. I bet if I think about it hard enough I could come up with a name, but it doesn't matter. Anyway, it was basically drive and drive and drive and drive and you never see anything. Nothing changes. It'd be like driving from Cincy to Cleveland and then back to Cincinnati, except there's no Columbus and no Cleveland and no other cities on the way. And the State College area is the same way - nothing. That's one reason I laugh when BWI posters (maybe they're all trolls?) call Columbus a cowtown. Maybe they wish they could get some cows?"
My dad's friends from when I was a kid would call Columbus a cow town for years before I had ever visited. I didn't know any better....I assumed it was just farms and [Mark May]. And then I went there. And then I went to a game at Penn State where we literally parked in a cow field. And thus the seed of my Penn State hatred was planted.

1. I make the drive from Cincinnati to DC at least twice a year and Pennsylvania is the best part of the trip IMO. Beautiful scenery. To each his own.
2. When I entered Ohio State, the only building in Columbus more than 10 stories tall was the LaVeque - Lincoln Tower. We used to refer to it as "the city with a hard on." Parking for the games then was in the cow fields that now make Schottenstein - Woody Hayes AC, West Campus, and what used to be the intramural fields south of the stadium, and yeah, even kids from Dayton called Columbus a cow town and the campus humor magazine, Sundial, raised money by selling sweatshirts bearing the words "Ohia State - The Big Farm."

So why would fans of a program that still to this day park people in cow fields, call Columbus "cow town" when they used to but currently don't have people park in grass?

Another one of their whineries: "Whaaaa! We had to play in Columbus 2 years in a row, and 3 years out of 4!!!"

https://bwi.forums.rivals.com/threads/ohio-state-v-wisconsin.149836/

I can't work up any sympathy for other Big Ten teams' scheduling. We've had our share of seasons with multiple teams having a bye week just before they play us. Also, we got shafted twice with the reorganization shuffle by having to play two years in a row at OSU, then two in a row at Indiana.

In 2010 and 2011, Ohio State played Penn State in Columbus. That's the only time since Penn State joined the Big Ten that they played consecutive years in Columbus. Unfair? Hardly. First, it happens. Other than few specific games (Ohio State-Michigan), you aren't guaranteed to play last year's road games at home this year. Second, I'm guessing that Penn State fans have already forgotten the 1994 and 1995 games - both played in State College.

I don't know - but if many of them come to PSU from NJ, NY, Philly area - as many did to OSU in the sixties - then anyplace west of the Schuylkill River and east of Chicago is a "cow town." They used to sit in the North 'berg and bitch, "this town is sooo fuckin' provincial." At least they paid out of state tuition, but I got really tired of listening to it.

The idea of putting a college out in a pasture is as old as the idea of putting one inside a principal city and both have their merits... not that Penn State's BWI crowd are representative of those merits. More like demerits...
