Our 2026 4* QB lives about 30 miles north of me in San Diego...and my son and I went up to watch him play tonight.

The opponent was overmatched...42-0.

Huhn's accuracy and ball is incredible. He really only missed one pass all night. About a 45 yard bomb into the end zone where the receiver just couldn't quite catch up to it. Missed him by inches. The ball just went off of his sprinting fingertips. There was another incompletion that should have been a PI and another one was just dropped. I'd say he was about 17-20 for 280 on the night...3 TDs.

The most impressive throws...a 15 yard sideline fade that the receiver went up and got. Perfect amount of air. And the other, he rolled out to his right and flicked a 40 yard bomb in stride to his WR for a TD.

He doesn't have a lot of mobility...just seems a bit stiff. But his height and arm are stellar. I doubt Allar looked much more mobile than him in his junior year of HS. He looks like a Dan Marino or Jim Kelly of yesteryear...but I don't know if the NFL really features players like him today.

(Also of note, he lost last week against another top-4 San Diego team...the defending CIF champ, Granite Hills. Had a chance to close the lead in the final minutes but threw an end zone pick and that sealed the 28-17 loss. Nevertheless, his team is easily a top 8 county team.)

I'll post more updates throughout the season if I hear or see more...

I hope his commitment to PSU sticks. I'd love to get our SoCal pipeline stronger, especially with USC and UCLA in the league. And he could be the next QB1 at PSU after Grunkmeyer....

We’re in Chicago for the Pearl Jam show tonight. Where’s everybody watching the game?

They're terrifyingly bad tonight. Not that anyone thought they'd beat or even contend with OU but this is like watching an FCS team especially offensively
Can't wait until they're our "big" non-conference game

Couple time consuming drives. Running clock on first downs really affects the amount of possessions.

Van Dyke fitting in the Dairy Raid.

Figured we can make this a one stop shop for all the previews / predictions, etc. ahead of game week.

Just a horrible mess. Former Boston College star. The driver of the car that killed them has been arrested and is being charged with being under the influence. He was in the middle of a 7 year, $68m contract.

Pundits who extrapolate the past dozen or so seasons with how our new playoff system would have played out with past rankings agree that most years a 9-3 team would make the field. We've all heard ad nauseum how Franklin's litany of 10-2 finishes would have earned him more 12-team playoff bids than any other non-playoff teams of the 4-team playoff era.

What will it take for us to get that bid this year?

1. Our 3 losses will need to be against top 15 teams. Ohio State is an obvious one. Will Washington be able to replicate last year's success? Will USC take steps forward? Wisconsin? Those three are really the only obvious candidates for top 15 type seasons to make our 3 losses respectable. If we lose all of them close, but look incredible in our 9 wins, and the Big Ten overall gets national respect, then that would make our resume plausible.

2. The SEC would need to have some strong 10-2 teams but no 9-3 teams to compare with us. And in a similar vein, the Big 12 and ACC would have to have 11-1 teams (or better) but no 10-2 teams with strong resumes to compare with us.

This is on when our game is on so we can't watch much of it. It is a huge early matchup with Georgia #1 and Clemson #14. The line is 11.5. This must mean there is not a lot of confidence in Clemson since they are a doube digit dog. Also must mean Vegas thinks Georgia is really good. The game is in Atlanta and expect a big pro Dawg crowd. Interested to see if Clemson can hang with them or not. Can Dabo bring back some magic?

Game was supposed to start @ 8 EDT, now 9 EDT.

Sidebar: I just checked weather for PSU @ WVU and rain projected for 8 & 9 AM. then T-Storm possibilities around 1:30

With DT taking over the reins at Oklahoma State, it appears likely that the competition for the top D1 wrestling program will now be between Penn State and Oklahoma State. In addition, Iowa State has broken back into the top 5, and schools like Cornell, Michigan and Arizona State are continuing to field strong programs. At the same time, Iowa seems to be getting pushed further and further back in the list of top teams. With these facts in mind, how relevant will Iowa be going forward with respect to the top teams contending for a national title?

Looks like no rain until three or so.

Drew Allar and Penn State take on West Virginia

They couldn't even think of a player to mention that's on WVU

Has been a huge mistake. I honestly don’t know how the people shilling for sports betting in the media can live with themselves.

As a poor dog that trolls the boards reading all the posts about this and that got me to thinking ... if you had a BILLION dollars, what would you lavishly spend that money on? I am definitely obsessed with wrestling - I think I would make significant contributions to NCAA / Olympic wrestling (none to Greco though) ....

Nothing would be donated for a PRO league -- too many people would want handouts outside the actual wrestlers ...

I wouldn't give FOOTBALL a nickel -

what would you do?

This will upset some people but athletes at Montana St are being offered thousands of NIL dollars to endorse a political candidate.

How long before this becomes a national standard ?


This is just crazy. And sad. And disgusting,

Article here

From the article:
“Howard isn’t new to Big Ten environments. grew up in Downingtown, Pennsylvania, where he developed into a three-star prospect in the 2020 recruiting class. But back then he wasn’t rooting for a Buckeye win instred rooting for his hometown Penn State Nittany Lions.”

Did we recruit him? Perhaps he was only bloomer, considering the article indicates he was a 3-star.

Currently 17-14 ND St. They’re cutting through Colorado’s D pretty easily. On the flip side the ND St D is pretty weak and giving up big passing plays.

Deion may have a few more reporters he won’t speak to next week if they report what’s happening so far.
