NW should be licking its chops

OK, I'll start:

NW won the last two games (2014-2015) against us and our QB played like s**t both years.

We might be caught looking ahead to the bye week.

It's an early kickoff.

Ugh you putting both on the QB. in 14 he spent the entire game on his ass. And 15 want much better. And if the DB'S catch the ball it doesn't matter how anyone on offense played

NW will be a good tough road opponent. The dreaded 11am body clock start time. I think the team will be motivated, take care of business, and looking forward to a week to heal up and prepare for its run.
 
My early thoughts are that it might not be a bad match up with NW. Granted Wisky is always strong OL, DL but they seemed to bully the Wildcats up front most of the day.
 
I watched Duke rout NW 41-17 with 538 total yards to 191.

Okay, it was week 2, and a really off-performance by NW, but they were severely lacking on both OL and DL. Couldn't create running room for running back Justin Jackson, and couldn't get to the Duke QB.

Strange things happen, but I can't picture this game as a struggle for PSU.

No sweat. I expect the OL to improve and the running game to be better. The passing game will have a huge day.

PSU by AT LEAST......21.

Guys. It's not an 11:00 am body clock start time. For the PA players, it still feels like 12:00 pm. It's ACTUALLY 11:00 am for the Northwestern players. I don't know why this constantly comes up because it's not that hard to figure out.
 
The one thing that bothers me is how quiet it is there. Funereal. Much sleepwalking. But fortunately Franklin will remember that, too.

I don't think NW is licking their chops but I think almost every B1G road game can be a struggle. We should realize that based on last week at Iowa. NW is probably an equally difficult opponent.

They're kids, not hungover adults. It's a conference game versus a team the Lion have lost two in a row. They should be ready to play.

The match ups might be favorable. I posted earlier about what I perceived as weaknesses upfront for NW after watching the Wisky game.
 
Frankly, the 11am (or whatever) start might be the lamest excuse for poor performance ever. It's not like the game is in China and taking place in the middle of normal sleeping time. It's frigging 11 AM!!! How many of us have been up already and working for at least 2-3 hours already?!? Probably nearly all of us. Man. The next time I fudge something up before noon I am going to say, "sorry, if it were an hour later I would have done better." Try that with your boss/clients/patients/etc and see how well it goes. What a frigging pathetic excuse!!!!

I am not reading the rest of these post, neg or pos, we will beat NWestern this coming week. It may be a tough game...WE win
 
Northwestern has been a MAJOR disappointment this fall.

Wiscy manhandled NW's offensive line this past weekend and I think PSU will do the same.

After playing miserable games against NW in 2014 & 2015, I think PSU simply athletically overwhelms NW on Sat.

(Fonzie smells a Sat butt-kicking in Evanston!)

So who is really the one licking their chops????

Well, we should at least TRY to win the game. We could fly out Barkley, Chuck Norris, Moorhead's brain in a jar and Fries' redshirt and just see what happens ;)
No red shirt left. Was burned. :cool:
