Well, damn. 10 years, and they're, what, 3-7 against Ohio State? If that doesn't make a rivalry, I don't know what does.
How about you can get a couple dozen years where the winner of that game is conference champion 75% of the time? Ohio State has played Penn State a couple of dozen times, and yeah - their 4 conference championships in that time came after beating Ohio State. But Ohio State probably won twice that number of championships (or more) in that time, and they didn't require beating Penn State. That tells me that it's not a big deal for Ohio State to beat Penn State. But it IS a big deal for Penn State to beat Ohio State.

I am stunned that they do not reply with "Success With Honor," unjust NCAA sanctions or an explanation of the crooked Big 10 refs.

Since Penn State joined the Big Ten (1993), Ohio State has 155.5 wins in-conference, and Penn State has 120 wins in-conference. (I counted ties as half-wins/half-losses.) I bet you that if they tried hard enough (not that hard, really), they could come up with 35.5 games that they lost but should have won, if we hadn't paid off the referees. Just the games against Ohio State, there's 2002, 2003, 2012, 2014.. and maybe 2013. (Yeah - Marcus Hall should have been hit with a targeting penalty early, and that changed the tempo of the game early. And then some stupid deal where a touchdown was called back to the 1-2 yard line, SHOULD HAVE been called back to the 4 yard line.) So 5 games vs. Ohio State. I bet there's another 5 against Michigan. They have 63 more losses - I bet they can come up with 25 more times where referees screwed them.

If Ohio State continues to win Big Ten games at its historical rate (.734), then Penn State would need to win 134 straight Big Ten games to close the 35.5 game gap that separates the two teams. That's almost 15 complete Big Ten seasons, assuming the current 9-game Big Ten schedule. So Penn State would catch Ohio State in Week 8 of the 2031 Big Ten season. Mark your calendars....
