Tam Tom just gave Beau some bulletin board material. Can’t wait till Beau proves him wrong and shoves it up his ass. Basically says Beau a tough kid but just not as “skilled.” Whether he believes that or not, kind of crappy thing to say.

From Flo article

Right now, Jesse just has more skill. Bartlett is a great competitor and wrestler, but Jesse has that as well, and Jesse’s skill is better in more positions. Jesse’s a fitness freak and he’s a gladiator. Our advantage right now comes down to the skill level, and we think Jesse has that over Beau. I'm taking nothing away from him. The kid is a beast. Our advantage right now is just skill level. Jesse can score from a lot of positions, and he’s just hard to wrestle. He’s got good defense, he can go to the left leg, the other leg, he can slow you down. He’s just so tough in all positions.”
Meh. I don't see what he said as particularly incendiary. He is respectful to Beau and just talking up his own guy, who is, in fact, the defending NCAA champ. Plus, he's not wrong, either, based on the last year's worth of matchups. He's not saying Beau isn't skilled, just that he's not quite "as skilled" as Mendez, which I can't really argue. Mendez is the best there is right now (we'll see what Alirez and/or Beau can do to knock him off his perch as the season goes on...).

Dems Have Lost the Plot in the View of Working-Class Voters

Dudes in dresses are far more important than the working class.

Democrats have lost two of the last three presidential elections to Donald J. Trump. Donald Trump! And they now face a governing trifecta of House, Senate, and presidential control by their (semi-fascist?) opponents.

Clearly, something has gone dreadfully wrong. A clue can be found in the shocking decline of nonwhite working-class (non-college) support for Democrats in this election. Harris carried nonwhite working-class voters by a mere 32 points, a 16-point decline from Biden’s 48-point margin in 2020. (Obama carried them by 67 points in 2012!) This latest decline swept across both black and Latino working-class voters.

What on earth is going on? Whatever happened to Democrats’ identity as the party of the working class? After all, it has been Democrats’ seemingly unchallenged hold over the nonwhite working class that has made that identity even semi-plausible, as white working-class voters have slipped farther and farther away from the party. But now that’s gone too.

Upset Alert

IMHO, the only way PSU loses this game is if they choke. While Minny has a fairly talented, disciplined and physical team there are not as talented as PSU up and down the line. We've been good at taking care of the ball and that needs to continue. Weather should be close to 40 degrees with a mild wind.

It is possible that PSU feels the pressure and doesn't perform well. Team leadership needs to lead. Allar, Warren, Singleton and Allen on offense. Carter, The Dentist, Reed, and Wheatly on D.
Hard to imagine that they would take Minnesota away for granted but anything can happen in college football.
