PSU - Utah Rose Bowl game thread

[Tom McAndrew]

Please use this thread for all pre-game, in-game, and post-game discussions about the Rose Bowl contest between PSU and Utah.

And while many of you may still be recovering from celebrating on New Year's Eve, or watching the Eagles inept offense against the Saints, it's possible that @Midnighter will have some specials in the bar for the bowl game. I'm looking forward to seeing what he whips up, and who is serving the concoctions.

We Are ...

- sorry to see several players in their last game for the Blue & White
- pleased that PSU has only one opt-out for the game
- curious to see which team wins the respective line battles
- happy for the fans and the players that it appears that the rain storms hitting CA of late will miss all/most of the game
- looking forward to a successful end to the 2022 PSU football season

... Penn State!!!

well done

very cool

 

[Tom McAndrew]

Not a great surprise. Olu did some individual warmups, but has not taken part in the team/unit warmups, per the BWI guys.

 

[Classof09]

Honoring Franco with a helmet sticker!

 

[Tom McAndrew]

appears that Malick Meiga is not in pads, and as such is out for the game, again per reports from the BWI guys at the game

 

[ApexLion]

No Olu, PW and JPJ hurts. Thankfully the Utes are down 3 stars as well.

Disappointing. They all should have 34 on the sides of their helmets like they did for Mauti.

 

[Classof09]

Disappointing. They all should have 34 painted on the sides of their helmets.

I’d prefer that too. But a helmet sticker is something anyway. More than the university ever allowed for JVP.

well done

Franklin with the pant legs rolled up.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

he's out with an injury, so it didn't really matter. I don't actually recall what he announced, but because he's out due to an injury, I don't include him in the opt out count

So the Judge asks me who Penn State is playing in the Rose Bowl.

And I say "the Utah Utes".

And the Judge asks


And I say, " Yes. Your Honor."

Not a good day so far for the Big 10. Let's show the world how the Big 10 play real football!

60/30/10% the locals or whatever the non-team colored people represent.

ESPN gives us a 42% chance
