Couple game notes from CJF during post-game radio interview....

[Ten Thousan Marbles]

CJF said it was the largest margin of victory in an away shutout in B1G history.

He also said that Cabinda's sister had a baby last night or this morning, and Cabinda was allowed to go to the hospital before the game to see her and the baby, since the hospital was not far from the stadium. Family.

Huh? Michigan beat rutgres 78-0 just this year.

 

[JTLion]

Against this Rutgers team the bar was very low.

Yeah. I see that. But, he said it.

JTLion is probably right.......and since we joined the B1G.....Coach was probably a little excited and forgot to say those two things. (By a PSU team since we joined the conference.) FWIW, our radio team was not saying anything about that. Not knowing the historical stats, I don't know if that is a correct take.

I think Penn State beat Minnesota 56-0 in Minneapolis in 1994.

 

[psuro]

I think Penn State beat Minnesota 56-0 in Minneapolis in 1994.

I think that was 1993 and might have been the first Penn State game in conference.

 

[manofsteel200]

56-3 @ minnesota in 1994

 

[83wuzme]

56-3 @ minnesota in 1994

The story I heard was that after that game the players boarded the team bus to find a single rose on each seat.

56-3, I think. '94 opener with that loaded PSU Offense. And Minn. had a decent offense that year.

Yea our first Big10 game was home against Minny at in 1993.
Lou Holtz was the coach and I still have the commemorative coin somewhere.

Still have the shirt & coins they gave out.

 

[uscgPSU]

OP was saying shutout victory I believe so if a FG was scored that would negate that if that was indeed the score.

 

[psuno1]

Still have the coin, Bobby Engram lit it up, everyone was like who is this guy. I say he is the best WR in PSU history could do it all, just made plays when everyone knew he was going to get the ball, and a really good punt and kick returner.

Lou Holtz didn't coach Minny in 93, he was at Notre Dame.

Jim Wacker was coach when we joined b1g I believe. Holtz coached at Minny in mid-80s and only coached a couple years there if I remember correctly.

I loved Jim Wacker. Talked in the third person all the time

93 game was st home

My bad I thought he was the coach then. Was Skip on the Minny team then? I'm pretty sure he had a son on a Minny team we played.
