Can someone who is in the know talk to the team and make sure they understand the importance of beating PSU back to the stone age?

I just want PSU to regret ever joining the B10. Like to really start asking why in earth they decided to do this to themselves.

I say get up and keep pounding. Since the old saying may have never happened maybe Urb can say " the reason we went for 2 up by 76 points was because we couldn't go for 3". Please let that happen....LOL

Don't let anyone say PSU isn't OSU's #2 rival.

They aren't. They want to be, but really they aren't.

Seems like as good a place as any to repost this:

OSU fan hate says otherwise. OSU fan denial and saying they're not our second biggest rival is just evidence that they are indeed our second biggest rival.

If fan hate is the deciding factor, then Penn State is everybody's rival. Hiding child rape in favor of beating Temple 400 times tends to do that.

I hate ND but they aren't a rival

We only have one rival

We have lots of teams we hate during their turn as relevant

Notre Dame is a rival but it's a cold rivalry. They rarely play each other but there's a lot of hatred between the fanbases and, when they do play, it's HUGE.

Every team in the conference is a rival. Michigan is OSU's biggest rival, of course. PSU is #2. Over the course of your lifetime, outside of the Michigan game, you'll suffer more from losing to them than anyone else, you'll enjoy beating them more than anyone else. You will fear and hate them (the two go hand-in-hand) more than anyone else. That's what defines a rivalry.

If Michigan doesn't get their shit together before too long we'll risk PSU becoming our #1 rival.

Hating them doesn't equate to being a rival.

There is only true rival to Ohio State in the Big Ten and that's M*ch*gan.

I hate teams like Florida, Texas, Wisconsin and Sparty (along with Ped State and their mongoloid fans) but they aren't rivals. Rivals have stature, Ped State needs to be eliminated from the B1G.

In that case, Michigan State, Wisconsin, and Illinois are bigger rivals than Pedo State. Pee S U is not our rival.
