There's only so many OT threads during the offseason that I can take anymore so a new thread idea I thought of is putting some highlights from the most random PSU game I can think of in recent memory each week, and then giving some random old thoughts on that game. To each is own but at least it'll give us a chance to talk about some old PSU teams and some players we may have forgotten about. I wont get too deep into the game, I'll just highlight 2-3 thoughts I remember from the game. I'll share my thoughts on the game and please chip in if you disagree or have a comment about a random part of the game.
This week, the random game I remembered was from 2010 when PSU traveled to the defending national champions home turk, ALAAAABAMA. I remember going into this game pretty excited because it was a big time game between 2 of the most storied programs in all of CFB, college gameday was there, defending champs, ESPN primetime, etc. I anticipated the lions to get destroyed to be quite honest because our offense didn't have too much firepower and with an inexperienced freshman QB playing in arguably the toughest environment in CFB.
Once the game started, I thought PSU held it's own on both sides of the ball. We moved the ball into Bama's redzone on the first 2 drives only for them to end in turnover's. Bama's offense was suffocating though, we stopped them here and there, but it was kind of inevitable them getting there's at some point. If you would have told me before the game started that we would hold Bama to just 24 points, I would have said absolutely and then some. Overall, this was a pretty boring game to watch from a PSU perspective, but cool to see the highlights of a game i completely forgot about, as well as names I haven't heard in years.
