10 - November 21, 1987 - Penn State 21, Notre Dame 20: This may have been the coldest game ever at Beaver Stadium with 30 mile an hour winds, snow flurries and wind chills of zero to 18 degrees the numbing 84,00 shivering fans. Notre Dame scored with 30 seconds remaining and went for the win but quarterback Tony Rice was tackled short of the goal by linebacker Pete Curkendall. "It was a moment that will always be frozen in the history of Penn State football," Paterno said.

I miss the Eighties!

What PSU wrestlers will be wrestling at Binghamton, any idea?

Certainly, there is saturation which we all know. NFL has Sunday, Monday, Thursday and late in the season Saturday.

But my thoughts are contrarian. You would think parity makes everything more interesting. I think it's the opposite. I think the NFL needs at least a couple of dominant teams. When you had whichever teams being the dominant teams, there was interest in seeing if there could be upsets. Now every game is hard enough to pick winners versus points. I see this in other sports as well. Tiger in golf, Tyson in boxing, going back Borg/McEnroe in tennis.

In the NFL, there is nearly a 50-50 chance of your team winning or losing when you factor in home versus away. I think people are less interested in watching when their teams have just as much chance of winning or losing.

Seems completely opposite, but my thoughts are that the parity where everyone is between 7-9 and 9-7 hurts interest across the board.

Akron has the inside track to at least get to the MAC Championship and even lowly GA State has qualified for a bowl. Leave it to Pitt to hurt our SOS rankings.

According to Franklin's PC today, Bowen will not play this week against Maryland due to his suspension for violation of team rules.

Anybody have any insider info?

Edit: I obviously meant Nebraska (see explanation below). I left the OP as is, so you can all see that I'm an idiot...which you probably knew already, so...

I have a schedule conflict, so I'm setting this thread up in advance. I won't be able to do PBP. Anyone that's interested in doing PBP is welcome to do so.

Please use this thread to discuss the match. If you are responding to another poster's comment, please use the quote function.

You can reportedly watch the action on a free video stream at (no guarantees):

Hope those that attend the dual, or those that listen to or watch the streams, have a lot about which to celebrate.

Is there going to be an increase in the 2018 season ticket prices?

Some info would be appreciated.

Would you rather have to read jammen's posts daily, or spyker on every board you post/read?

Shouts out spyker, by the way. Don't let anyone try to shade your shine, bro.

on this day, I turn 50 and the US Marine Corps turns 242. Happy birthday to us both.

Important footnote - I was not conceived in the Tun Tavern in Philadelphia.

I still hate Pitt more than any other school, but at this point I almost feel bad for them. Does anybody else feel this way? Even though Narduzzi is such a spasticated jackass I almost see him as Jeff Goldblum at the end of The Fly, when he makes Gina Davis blow him away.

Wish he were staying, but this might open a door for Brooks.

is a limit of 4 per person(!) but there is a $2 charge per order. I guess this proves that to the pitters, perception is everything.

Consideration for Sister Sledge - WE ARE family - as part of the stadium music for homecoming. The theme fits the team's demeanor...and homecoming is about the "Penn State Family" coming together...

"...Living life is fun and we've just begun to get our share of the world's delights.....(High!) high hopes we have for the future...and our goal's in sight...have faith in you and the things you do"

Easy song for everyone one to sing along..WE ARE...

Word is Lee beat Cortez 14-1

I wonder if Spyker can write something like this for us

https://iowa.forums.rivals.com/threads/notes-from-the-room.209133/
