”Penn State Nittany Lions

National poll voters. The Nittany Lions had five undefeated seasons under former coach Joe Paterno -- possibly none greater than the 1994 team that finished 12-0 and won the Rose Bowl -- but was snubbed for the national title in each instance. In 1994, Penn State was voted No. 2 in the final AP and coaches' polls, while Nebraska was crowned national champ at 13-0. The same thing happened in 1968, 1969 and 1982, when the Nittany Lions were undefeated but finished No. 2 each time. In 1973, Penn State finished 12-0 but was ranked No. 5 in the final AP poll. The College Football Playoff hasn't fixed Penn State's woes with polls. Following Penn State's Big Ten title in 2016, the CFP selection committee excluded the Nittany Lions from the top four, earning Penn State the dubious distinction of becoming the first Power 4 conference champion excluded from the CFP. -- Heather Dinich”

Finally, some proper BWI rage bait....

So Maryland and Pitt it’s Joe Paterno.
Rutgers. It saquan.

I didn’t feel like clicking so the scoop is that Penn State’s archenemies are Maryland and Pitt?

Nah, Penn State's archenemy is National Poll Voters. Paterno is the archenemy for Maryland and Pitt.

 

[UncleRoyBiggins]

This is what we are up against.

 

[Bison13]

Wow, Heather’s actually right about this one. Wonder if she’s called anymore 16 year-old boys and ask them to meet her at a local diner at midnight recently?

How difficult was it for her to look up the 1982 record and the eventual national champion? Maybe Heather would make a suitable "archenemy" for Penn State.

Maybe that NATTY. was rescinded?

Heather, Heather, Heather. I realize 1982 wasn’t in your lifetime but c’mon, you are a supposed sports journalist. SMH

 

[saturdaysarebetter]

Nor were we undefeated in 1982. She's a vapid airhead.

I don’t think Dinich is dumb, it’s just that she’s lazy and doesn’t take pride in her work. ****, there are people on this board who take more care on their posts than HD does with her livelihood.

 

[NittanyBuff]

How could she forget how much we hate MSU, lol

 

[kgilbert78]

I thought it was the NCAA. While I've mellowed in recent years, when we would go to the Indy Zoo (we're members and donors), you have to drive by the NCCA building on Washington St. (it's quite close to the zoo) and I would "communicate" with them (in the spirit of Top Gun) as we drove by.
