some close games until it meets Ohio State at the end of the season. So they finish the regular season with one loss. Ohio State wins out including the Big Ten Championship. That means that any team from the West has at least 2 losses. Ohio State goes into the playoffs and PSU goes to the Rose Bowl. That's my story and I'm sticking to it or at least until I'm proven wrong.
 
I agree. I think they take care of a struggling MSU this week and recover and refocus during the bye. Win convincingly the next 2 and of course vs Rutgers. I too think they lose in Columbus but I hope they use bye to tighten up and take some steps forward. Just play well at Ohio State regardless of outcome. Make sure everyone leaves the shoe that Saturday knowing that Penn State is going to be a problem moving forward. Rose Bowl is a nice prize but you never know what havoc awaits everyone else the last month, maybe play well and slide into playoffs at 11-1
 
Predict “light” attendance for Rutgers as it’s over Thanksgiving break . Still won’t come close to approaching the emptiness of the Pitt yellow out.
 
My confidence level going into each of the next 5 games:

@ Michigan State: 50%
@ Minnesota: 70%
Indiana: 85%
@ Ohio State: 10%
Rutgers: 100%

10-2 finish. NY6 bowl (possibly Rose, depending on what shakes out in the Big Ten West). I'll take it.

From what I hear, something also changed with hunting regulations and a lot of hunters will be out looking for deer that day.

I hope you are right but until we fix the inconsistencies in the offense, particularly at rb, I am worried about tripping up a second time. We need to settle on a smaller (2 backs rather than 4) rb rotation to be able to sustain long drives and wear down the opposing d. Despite the rpo and flashy plays with Hamler, you still need to run your opponents throat sometimes. That part of football still has not changed!
