[pennstghs]

can u tell me that story in detail-im not sure i remember it exactly but im sure it was hilarious?

[billy_pilgrim]

Approves of any Michigan/OSU banter...

And says to Lloyd Carr: "Now? Now, you want a playoff?? Where were you in '94 Lloyd?"

And says to Jim Tressel: "Do you believe in graduation?"

And says to Billy_Pilgrim: "Sorry about the karma hit"

[sac]

Wishes he could still play Rutgers, Syracuse, West Virginia, Boston College, Temple and Maryland instead of....

Minnesota, Iowa, Wisconsin, Michigan, Ohio State, Michigan State,  Purdue, Northwestern

........doesn't mind games with Indiana and Illinois

I wish I could make it to the Witt/ONU game but unfortunately have an office Christmas party that evening and am not able to attend.  I have to say that I somehow have a feeling that Witt is going to pull away with the W.  Honestly, I didn't think they would be as much of a threat this year but I was certainly impressed with their play at the witt/woo game.  I was also impressed with one of their freshman guards in the JV game...I don't remember his name but he was making 3 pointers like crazy at the end of the game.  He was on the shorter side...anyone know the name?

2-michigan would have no complaints if they wouldnt have blown their chance at osu already-thats a whole nother horse of a different color though

quick question-how is one's "karma" determined

I think that he was dressed for the varsity game.  I was a little surprised that he wasn't inserted for the 3-pt attempt at the end of the game...

[woosterbooster]

Yep, I'm pretty sure, too, that Bigler dressed and warmed up for the varsity game against Wooster.  Looking at the Wittenberg stats, though, shows that he hasn't played any varsity yet this season.  Terrific shooter with great range, but in those has-to-be-a-three situations, it's usually hard for a little guard to get the shot off.  That's probably why it ended up being the post player Hemenway taking the shot, which even though he had to force it, I thought was a good move, and it almost panned out.

Also keep in mind that Paterno terminated the long-standing PSU rivalries with Syracuse, West Virginia, and Pittsburgh when they stopped being all-but-guaranteed victories.  In my book, he ranks right up there with Bobby Bowden in more ways than one.

terminated the long standing rivalry with syracuse hmmmmm?

yes the long standing traditional beatdown continues in 2008

[David Collinge]

You mean "resumes" in 2008.  They haven't played since 1990, having played every year but one since 1922.  And Syracuse is once again a lousy team.

[pennstghs]

i think with the new 12th game added you see hoards of these "easy" games being scheduled

[David Collinge]

True enough. 

Geez, exam week is a drag.   

[wally_wabash]

Easy game or not, it is a major conference vs. major conference game which is far, far better than scheduling a I-AA, excuse me, a Championship Division team for a September game.  That's a practice that I think ought to be prohibited.
