At the end of his obstacle course he sits on the couch to watch his favorite team and on the TV screen is Texas. Perhaps PSU is not affiliated with DIRECTV , so no publicity there?

OBVIOUSLY. 
, Saquon hates us.
, Saquon hates us.If you notice, the pillows at the end of the commercial are blue and white and say Go State.
Not any longer. The pillows are now light blue. PSU is still toxic.

OK, I have to focus on the pillows next time I see the commercial.
Those aren’t pillows ! How about those Bears !
The Go State pillows have been removed!!!!! Edit: the pillows are still there but are no longer PSU-related, is what I meant to say. Clumsy phrasing on my part.

Disrespected once again! PSU is becoming the Rodney Dangerfield of "college" football.
Yeah, they were there yesterday. I saw that commercial twice this morning and both times nothing.
Commercials sometimes are reduced to fit a certain time spot. Every time that I've seen that commerical, I've seen the pillows. Also, the first time that he looks at his phone, it's of a clip of a Duke football player.
It wasn’t a time-limit issue in this case. The pillows are there, the issue is that the Go State imprint on the pillows had been removed. Go State was on the pillows yesterday, gone from the pillows today. And yesterday the pillows were very clearly Penn State blue with white lettering. Today the pillows are more grayish, a completely different color. I saw this commercial twice this morning, no “Go State” on the pillows either time.

If this is true, then perhaps PSU itself threatened a trademark lawsuit.
Yeah, going by Occam’s Razor, you’re likely correct. Just a wild guess here: Saquon made a request for the Go State pillows and Direct TV said okay, knowing that it was a possibility they’d be asked to remove them. It was fun while it lasted.
If that's what happened, then PSU is throwing away free publicity, and it's not as if "Go State" is used only by PSU.
It must have cost a good bit of time and cash money to re-shoot the commercial and have Saquon make all those jumps again just to replace pillows.
Thanks for the clarification. So DirectTV changed it all by their lonesome. Alright.
Again, it was good while it lasted.
Commercial was just on Steelers game and pillows said Go State
Watching the NFL Network and just now I saw the Saquon ad again. The Go State and the blue pillows are back! Funny thing, the Go State is in one line, I could swear that when I first saw the ad the Go was on top of the State, two lines, bigger letters. Lol.
Penn State, especially the Administrators, needs to go Eff itself.
“Go State” isn’t copyrighted, but some some pinhead staff attorney thinks it is.
I would love to learn the identity of the PSU person who took umbrage to the “Go State” pillows.
pm me if you learn who it is.

It may have been the DirectTV lawyers without input from PSU. Penn State does not have a monopoly on pinheads....
Just saw it again. No “Go State.” Yes, I do need to get a life.
So weird-saw commercial twice today and one time Go State pillows next time light blue pillows?
