Ok... Let's Get This Over With


Out coached? Yes
Wanted it more? Them
Better than us? Absofuckinglutely not!

It was turning to be a great day. Good work out in the morning with the Godfather*, amazing breakfast at Easy Street (chocolate chip pancakes), some beers and 3:30 games at campus BW3, and killed a case of beer between 5 people within an hour before going into the stadium at The Varsity Club. Was shaping up to be great...

As we got to our seats the band came out and being pretty wasted and excited I got into it. The plump lady sitting next to me asked "Were you in the band!?" Response: "Fuck no! Were you?"... "Yea...". There was no conversing the rest of the game. We sat in D deck where no one stood for the first three minutes until the people behind me realized that I wasn't going to sit down. D deck was standing midway through the 1st quarter on.

Tressel's play calling was absolutely sucktacular. He didn't open up the playbook at all and let Penn State's defense succeed at what they wanted to do. Stop the run and try to contain the pass. Not being able to move the ball downfield without two-headed monster running attack is inexcusable, especially with a small lead in the 4th quarter.

Penn State will run the table and go to the BCS National Championship. It is there they will lose to the Florida Tebows and we will continue to hear the fucking SEC bull shit.

They are not better than us. We had plenty of chances to win the game. Defense played great. Offense executed for the most part. Coaching sucked! Jim and his boys better figure it out or this season could become a mess. Northwestern has a high flying spread offense and Illinois can be really good when they want to.

The bye week should bring us ways to open the playbook for TP. If there are any doubts about his ability to play at this level again this week and talk about Todd Boeckman coming back I will lose my mind. If he plays I will ignore them for the rest of the year. Tressel needs to quit being so faithful to the upper classmen and understand he has talent sitting around on the sidelines. Why Maurice Wells still sees the field is beyond me.

Yea Ohio!
