Booger McFarland on ESPNU Radio this morning...

I think that we match up poorly with Alabama.......getting closer but on a neutral field Clemson and Alabama seem to be a full step better than just about everybody.


We are in the mix due to Barkley, TE, WR potential and aggressive defense along with good special teams (not withstanding some issues with the field goal team)

I have 1) Alabama 2) Clemson ........(pretty big drop) 3) Oklahoma 4) TCU 5) Penn State

TCU?! (I feel like the guy in the TV commercial for Pace Picante Sauce. "New York City?!")

I think the soup Soupy is eating is a tad thin.

I don't have time for another hair splitting discussion about nothing on a Friday before a big game. Thanks for playing!

You are on a football message board though...

I see what you did there.

There was no pick! No pick!

I detest corporate jargon. Detest it. And in typical group think, everyone starts using it so they can sound sophisticated when most of them have never had an original thought.

We are aligned.

Anyone else getting tired of hearing the term "deep dive"?

It's already taken over Corporate America and now it's making it's way into sports conversations. It's the new "it is what it is".

Getting tired of whiners

Not as much as I dislike the way "culture" is now being used to describe everything freaking thing.

Don't get BobPSU92 started on culture.

Stop whining!

I concur...people need to think outside the box and try to find more robust ways of expressing themselves. I hate those corporate people who don't share ideas and fail to tackle stretch assignments for the good of the organization. We can get bogged down in concern or deal with it head on. I try not to worry too much, after all it is what it is.

Net net, it's not that big of a deal

I remember someone asking me where I was "officed". I wanted to punch them through the phone

Please take this opportunity to remember that Penn State has a culture problem.

That's awful.

I get the spirit of your post, but Iowa at home, at night, is not like Baylor. Not. Even. Close.

I was just making a loose comparison. There's plenty of unexpected and 'almost' results through the course of a season.

So, we love these guys and consider them knowledgeable when the praise Penn State, but let any of these guys say one negative thing, and all of a sudden they are useless and lack understanding. Got it.

Booger shmooger - the only thing that matters is what happens on the field.

Just Win.
