Half time .. FSU 10-3 over UF ..
Both teams running game seems to be working .. When they go to the pass they stall out ...
As usual the Gator defense is keeping us in the game ... Time for the offense to step it up ... ;)

Hey Bruce, A few years ago you cracked me up with Seattle-Broncos game.....It appears that the SUPER BOWL has reached the Collegiate level in a PAC 12 manner...

By record, yes. But they have to be one of the best 3 loss teams in the nation. Big offensive line, played Ohio State to a 1 point game ... I was worried about this game, and the 1st half was why I was worried. PSU made great adjustments on offense and defense at halftime and the result was pretty for me (3 TDs scored in front of me) but ugly for Musky and especially Mrs. Musky.
Lol....Homer much? They are way overranked.

Sagarin had them at 15 to start today and 39th strength of schedule which will be even lower now.

Msu beat Farnum, Rutgers and Notre Dame. They lost to freaking Illinois and PSU was trailing at the half lol. Number 54 rank on Sagarin!

At best, PSU is going to the Rose Bowl which is good for them. No way they make it to the CFP.

Bruce, I have been quick to say since they broke into the "Top 25" that they were over rated. They are a young team. I am not sure I like them going to the B1G championship game. Wisconsin is a good team. I am now concerned this VERY young team could end the season with 2 losses. PSU will lose 3 starters and 7 of their 3 deep depth chart players (and a couple of those have been missing with season ending injuries). I want them to end strong for a good start for NEXT year. A win my Michigan would have probably given them a good bowl game against Western Michigan. That said, somehow PSU keeps winning after their 2-2 start. Joe Morehead has been a great acquisition at offensive coordinator and this coaching staff has made GREAT half time adjustments all year. I don't think Penn State deserves the ranking they have, but then I look around at some of the other teams and their rankings and say, why not? Oh, and the Rose Bowl would be MUCH better bowl than I ever thought they would go to at the start of the season ... my prediction was 7-5, 8-4 at the VERY best. So, I am very happy with 10-2. Am I allowed to be happy my team has performed way better than expected?

LOL....just don't be such a Homer all the time. Gets old.

I take it all back if they beat Wisconsin which is a very good team.

Too bad the BIG10+4 added Rutgers and Maryland. Totally diluted the conference.

Looks like the Army Navy game is going to affect a lot of bowl match ups potentially.

This homer has tickets purchased for Indianapolis Saturday night. I told a friend 4 weeks ago that when Penn State won the Big Ten East I would go with him to Indy for the Championship game. Never thought it would happen ... now I am messing up deer season!

Where's the college hoops thread you guys? I might actually enjoy talking about my hoops team instead of our awful football team!

Not Penn State?

I hope for PSU, but they have tried, but have never really been able to break into the "top tier" of B-Ball. A good season is when they finish a win over .500. So, I root for them because they are PSU, but if I want to watch a good game I will watch and root for the UK Wildcats (My bro is a professor there, so over the years they have grown on me).
