By yards per game, they’re about equal. PSU is 9th overall and the Gophers are 13th.I don't have the ranks or stats but I have thought the PSU Run D has been pretty good this year.

Don't get me wrong, hockey support is high in MN, but the Vikings are king. They are one of the few teams that has been consistently competitive. Yes, they've had down years but they don't go through decades long periods of being bad like some other professional teams here.Tom Servo said:Outside of the Vikes, Minnesota doesn’t seem like football territory to me. IMO, it’s all about hockey at all levels and maybe wrestling as I know pro wrestlers Shelton Benjamin and Brock Lesnar competed there.
Fair enough. I do have bad vision, so I may not see things clearly from this distance.Don't get me wrong, hockey support is high in MN, but the Vikings are king.

There is enough football fandom in town to support a good DI program.
That just means he'll play the first series and then get a seat on the bench. Franklin to USC!Tom Servo said:It’s a November miracle! @ClownCausedChaos2’s dream has come true!!!
I agree, they only go to the playoff if they win out. Take care of business against Minny this week.None of it really matters. Just have to keep winning. A 1 loss PSU won't get in even if that loss is to OSU because we won't have the B1G champ game on the resume.
We need to handle Minnesota.
I would add that a 1 loss PSU team is definitely in the NY6 mix - most likely the Rose Bowl. That could be a rematch against the Ducks or Utah.None of it really matters. Just have to keep winning.

Yea but we don't want the Rose Bowl right now. Getting in the playoff would be huge for this school.I would add that a 1 loss PSU team is definitely in the NY6 mix - most likely the Rose Bowl. That could be a rematch against the Ducks or Utah.
Oh, I agree. I'm just saying the fall back position isn't that bad.Yea but we don't want the Rose Bowl right now. Getting in the playoff would be huge for this school.
Cut him some slack. He has a degree from PSU.Columbus is eastern time zone
Ohio state at noon? That is dumb.ClownCausedChaos2 said:Holy crap. TV has dictated that PSU-OSU will be a noon game, 11 AM in Columbus.
And Indiana.I'll worry about a noon OSU game when we get there. Have an Unbeaten Minnesota to take care of first.
Leaning heavily toward going to this game if we beat Minnesota on Saturday. Mixed feelings since I was there 2 years ago where we led all game just to give it away at the end. On the one hand, it could be "unfinished business". On the other hand, could turn out like the Michigan game last year in Ann Arbor.ClownCausedChaos2 said:Holy crap.

The plus side of a noon game is that I can actually get home after the game that night (5.5 hour drive) and not have to spend an extra night in Columbus.
A loss to Minnesota and there is no playoff.I think that a close loss to Minnesota is better than a close loss to OSU if playoffs are the end goal. Reverse that if you are hoping for the Rose Bowl.
Or more simply we could just win out.
Realistically, he's being suspended for Maryland and Rutgers (because they don't need him for those games) in the hopes that the NCAA buys that as legitimate punishment for whatever he did. That way he can still play against PSU and Michigan. We'll see if the NCAA goes along with that.It's obvious that Chase Young should be suspended for the rest of the season to maintain the integrity of the duhOSU program.
And to increase our chances of winning.
One report I saw said he took money from an agent.Realistically, he's being suspended for Maryland and Rutgers (because they don't need him for those games) in the hopes that the NCAA buys that as legitimate punishment for whatever he did.

Ya, the only Big10 team going to the playoff is an undefeated conference champion, as long as the rest of the season plays out to script. Clemson is currently out, looking in. A loss by OSU or PSU knocks them out, unless something happens to the other top teams unexpected.A loss to Minnesota and there is no playoff.
Yep. It's a gamble by OSU. We'll see what happens.One report I saw said he took money from an agent.
Yes, back in 1993 (our first year in the B1G) and then two years ago in 2017. Both disappointing losses.Have you ever been there before?
I lived there for 6 years in the 90s and met my wife there. Strangely, I only went there to a game once...against Wyoming. Let's just say I like Beaver Stadium much better.Yes, back in 1993 (our first year in the B1G) and then two years ago in 2017. Both disappointing losses.
Aaaaannnnddd he didn't start.It’s a November miracle! @ClownCausedChaos2’s dream has come true!!!
