    Saturday evening found me sitting across the dinner table from a depressed nine year old. His favorite meal and an enjoyable Penn State win couldn't even cheer up this pint-sized Notre Dame fan. Which leads me to two interesting questions:...

    Well, how’s that for an electric start to the season! “Unbelievable and magical,” I believe, are the words the emotional Gus Johnson used. “Crazy… lots of ups, lots of downs,” is what Sean Clifford had to say. If this contest...

    If you were in need of some Holiday cheer, look no further than that 56-21 blizzard the Fighting Illini of Illinois ran into on Saturday. Penn State saved its best performance for last. No need to drag this on, Nittany...

    Well folks, in a year where nothing is certain, one thing we know for sure is that Rutgers is still the same old Rutgers, despite the media’s vain attempts at trying to prove otherwise. If there were ever a day...

    I have a confession. For the first four games of this season, I forgot to don any sort of Penn State gear. The horror, I know. As Michael Scott would say, “I’m not superstitious, but I’m a little stitious” and...
