There's gotta be something funny on BWI.

First thread:
https://bwi.forums.rivals.com/threads/the-acc-would-welcome-penn-state-with-open-arms.274403/

Doofus says Penn State should move to the ACC now. *yawn* Most of the people punch him in the back of the head and rightfully call him a doofus. Good for them. When TV money is brought up, I thought he meant that the TV money is too much in the Big Ten for Penn State to ever leave it. But this other dude decides he means that Penn State brings a lot of TV money to the Big Ten.



I'm pretty sure that when they post the TV ratings for most-watched games in a season, the Penn State-Ohio State game makes the list, but not many more Penn State games make the list. Ohio State usually has several other games that make the list. I'm willing to bet that Penn State has more to gain by staying in the Big Ten than the Big Ten has to lose if Penn State leaves.

this one:
B1G is costing Penn State at least $100 Million, seems like they are costing Penn St. a ton of money.

Yay! Another "We got hosed!" thread. These are funny.
This is the first I've heard that Larry Johnson Jr should have won the Heisman.

Against Iowa, Michigan, Ohio State, and Auburn (44-9 combined record in 2002): 71 carries for 284 yards (4 yards per carry) and 3 TDs (+1 TD receiving).

Against Northwestern, Illinois, Indiana, and Michigan State (15-33 combined record): 101 carries for 1,142 yards (11.3 yards per carry) and 11 TDs.

Granted, Auburn was after the Heisman, but it proves the point. He feasted on the dregs and tanked the big games.

Good information.
I'm surprised that Penn State fans actually understand this.
LJ was done in by the lack of yards in the biggest games, unfortunately

That seems to be the argument they use whenever they work against a certain candidate getting the award (see Barkley).
