Right now looks like W's versus Buffalo, Rutgers, Army & Illinois. SDState is pretty good and the remainder of the schedule will be very tough if we play like we did yesterday.
4-8 This Season ?
- Thread starter jnd35
- Start date
The number of sacks an OSU could amass in that game is too ugly to thoroughly contemplate.
No sure wins and I don't think we beat Rutgers. 4-8 would be on the upside.
THAT'S JUST GREAT!!!
Two months ago, I post that here (4-8) and Im treated like some sort of cancer.
You post it, and everyone's like, seems reasonable to me. Guess I'm just a man ahead of his time.

Did you not post on Friday a 31-10 Penn State win? You're certainly not ahead of anything, but you kmight be "a head."
I didn't think Rutgers could beat Penn State or Michigan this year but Maryland was a possibility before the season opener. We had 3 new starters on the OL and 2 QB that didn't have any experience. After our game, I think we have a good chance against Penn State, Michigan and Maryland. The only weakness is in the defensive backfield.
Sure we will. It's a "stripe out" game. We have never lost a "stripe out" game.
I don't. I'm just kidding. This, of course, is our first "stripe out" game, which I personally consider moronic, especially for an opponent the likes of Rutgers. However, we showed yesterday we may suck just as bad as the Scarlet Knights, or worse, so maybe it is a good idea.
I was astonished when the announcers said how embarrassed PS must be when 2 rushing defenders can bear 5 blockers. I agree this could be a long season and I wonder what it will do for recruiting?
Geeze, this is stupid. I didn't say I didn't care, I said "I barely care". If you can't see a distinction, you need to take some reading comprehension classes. Beyond that, I think my post, combined with my history on this Board, makes any further explanation unnecessary.
I felt 9-3 was the most likely season result before Saturday. I'm sticking with that, though there is no margin for error left.
Buffalo, Rutgers, San Diego State, Army, Indiana, Maryland, Illinois equal seven games that are between gimme and favored-to-win. That leaves Michigan (home, likely white-out) and Northwestern (away) to get to nine. Harbaugh hasn't gotten huge results in year one at his previous NCAA coaching stops (though he's excelled in year 2-3). The Wildcats have often pulled off an unexpected win early on and then been exposed in B1G play; despite the Stanford upset they still look like paper tigers to me.
The remaining two games are OSU and MSU, both on the road. Those look like a tall order to expect wins as of now, but even that can change.

Not to be disrespectful here, but we've got a very solid D Line and pretty solid LBs. Our secondary may be young and thin, but you guys probably have a top 5 worst OLine in CFB.
I think if we don't throw 5 picks we win. Don't see how your OLine is going to handle JPO or Turay.

Fine you barely care. For a guy who barely cares, you spend a lot of time talking about it. I think you care a lot. You care so much you are trying to convince people you don't. I believe they call that a defense mechanism. Based on what I saw yesterday, this strategy makes a ton of sense.
I'll come back in a few weeks to see how little care then. Good luck against Buffalo.
Sorry, I just think it's a little narcissistic to go on a message board to say how much you don't or barely care about something. Obviously you care enough to take the time to post about it. If you truly barely cared you wouldn't even take the time to post about how much you don't care.
Whatever. You have 3 posts here. You have no background as to the fabric of the Board, the positions of the long time posters, and specifically my history as it relates to this issue. Believe what the hell you want. The post was not directed to trolls who seem to be the ones most bothered by it. It was directed to regular members of this board. I don't give a rats ass about anyone else.
I really don't understand your issue. Today I barely care about a school I have loved for nearly 50 years of my life. I have reasons and I am sharing those reasons. I have done that, in a similar fashion, before yesterday and I will likely do so again. I can tell from the responses that others feel the same way and have started their reasons. This is a message board. Mine was one post among many. I have been posting on this Board for 5 years and nothing I have I ever posted has gotten as many views, or replies, as this post, which clearly stated its contents in the title. That tells me that narcissistic or not, a lot of people care that I don't care, want to agree that they don't care either, want to tell me they don't care that I don't care, or just want to discuss the topic.
Lots of "posters" here I've never heard from before!! Seems some lurkers are trying to gloat about a difficult loss. Fairgambit has been a long time poster and a very rational thinker for some time.
Strange, I haven't seen people like Jo Pa Thetic actually post anything other than when he "likes" something negative about a long time poster or the program in general.
I get the fact that this is an open board and people can post what they wish as long as it is not outrageous. Having said, that to be argumentative just for the sake of doing so reveals a lot about what people enjoy doing to other people. Enough said!!

Not against that pathetic schedule. Psu tried to build in 8 garauteed wins. Temple ruined that. The psu ooc schedule is an embarrassment. Temple is the best program. That is hilarious.
