The "Big Rivalry Game' with Rutgers moved to primetime...

Gotta love manufactured "rivalries"....

What's the over/under on coming up with a stupid trophy?
 
I had previously posted my suggestion for a trophy...


a trophy of a bridge over the Delaware River, with a toll booth on the NJ side. Inside would be sleeping toll booth collector, and on the PA side, a PennDoT truck with six sleeping workers.

As long as it's not a coffee table.
 
So is this really our White Out game? Rutgers? Sad schedule that we can't find a decent out of conference opponent but we have five home games and this is the big one. Sandy Barbour needs to cancel the last two games of the Pitt series and find the paying alumni something worth getting excited about.
 
I'm hoping it's just a prime time game and not the white out. I'd rather Illinois or UM for the whiteout.
 
Rutgers in prime time at Beaver Stadium? Never thought I'd see the day.

Delany will stop at nothing to get his buddy Kyle Flood on the big screen and help him create the B1G RIVALRY he needs, to convince some Jersey kids to stay home. Jersey Jim is all about trying to help Rutgers recruit and try to overcome their many warts as a program. Dinardo and friends will be gushing about the game for months in advance. BTN is worse than Fox News and MSNBC combined when it comes to spinning their yarn.
 
Yippee....


Let me check the tv listings or maybe I'll have something DVR'ed.

8pm vs. Rutgers??????? What? Who cares, except for 4 people in New Jersey?
 
I'm curious to see how rutgers fans will be received after last year's fiasco at their place. Not a good idea in my opinion. Hopeful we can take it to them and have very little drama.

I do think we should always have multiple home games at night. I think the players and Franklin would agree.
 
This is just the BTN night games. The night games on ABC/ESPN are yet to be announced and we'll likely end up with some games there (almost certain that PSU/Ohio State will be at night). The Big Ten has lifted their restriction on Nov night games, so we might see Michigan/PSU under the lights.
 
BTN is Jersey Jim Delany's Rutger's network. Only B1G team with multiple prime time games. A "white out" is a forgone conclusion. Barbour has her marching orders from Jersey Jim. She tipped her hand when she coined the phrase "most anticipated game" and made it the most expensive premium ticket of the year. What's next? Persuade CJF to accept a trophy game, so Jersey Jim will release our stolen bowl money? Absolutely nothing this conference does is intended to benefit Penn State.

Since we almost never lose, the "Penn State Kick Rutgers' Ass Trophy" would be appropriate.

Rutgers can just call it the Holy Grail because they are about as competitive in this series as people that try to find the Grail are at succeeding.
