What would you say was PSU's "best win" in 2015? Obviously, it depends on what criteria you use. My thoughts are below.
Based on the criteria of which win made me feel the best about the team's overall performance, I would have to say either the Rutgers win, or the Illinois win.
In terms of which win provided the best "revenge" factor, I would have to say Maryland.
If your criteria is based on winning against quality competition, it would have to be our win against San Diego State, who ended the season with a 9-3 record, 8-0 in their MW conference, and with votes in both the AP and Coaches polls (although they are not ranked in either poll). The only other team we beat that didn't end up with a losing record is Indiana, at 6-6.
Here's hoping for a compelling bowl match-up, and victory!
