    How does this backfield measure with past RB tandems in PSU history?

    Yes excellent question. I went back and watched key RB combos from past Lions teams, including the 1994-1995 era when Paterno recruited the three best RBs of that recruiting class (Carter, Archie and Pitts). Other than Barkley and Larry Johnson who were uniquely talented RBs, Penn State has...

    What year did you become a Penn State fan? Kwalick or Warren?

    1968 from the Syracuse game onward and never looked back. Warren best TE, Godwin best WR, Barkley best RB, Allar best QB from talent perspective, Collins best from intangibles. Mark Robinson best S, Bruce Clark best DL and Shane C best LB. I know we all love #11s these days but great players...

    Name the most underrated/forgotten Penn State football starter you can think of.

    Mark Robinson will always be on this list for me. I view every Safety through the lense of his badassery. PSU has had a rich history of angry and smart safeties. THAT list rivals the LB list in so many aspects

    Name the most underrated/forgotten Penn State football starter you can think of.

    AZ, #42, and blond fullback who BOB promoted to RB carried me in the dismal years

    Name the most underrated/forgotten Penn State football starter you can think of.

    I just watched the Orange Bowls (KU and Mizzoo). The dude was a leader

    Name the most underrated/forgotten Penn State football starter you can think of.

    He was on my list of under appreciated Lions, nice choice it is time to start talking about Seider. Could one of you legends start a thread among our best minds to debate his value?

    Name the most underrated/forgotten Penn State football starter you can think of.

    Trey set the angry tone we needed to beat the bums from Miami on January 2, 1987. Our epically glorious Lions require dudes like this from time to time and he, like D Butler, are on the Mt Rushmore of this category of epic Lions

    “FSU's Mike Norvell fires both coordinators amid 1-9 season”

    good to see you again PSURO, just wish the calamity of NIL and ego would have afflicted Columbus as badly as it did Tallahassee.

    Game 8: Ohio State, Nov 2, 12:00 pm EDT, Fox

    Thought I would give you all a glimpse of the future with this public service announcement...if Tom Allen has someone read this post to him, then our chances improve. but more importantly, the emotional fragility of the Buckeye Chatter Class is the best source of humor this week if you need a...

    Kaden Saunders vs KJ Hamler

    Yep, lack of separation speed but Omari and Harrison might surprise, lack of contested ball skills, but until Fleming showed up, real lack of effort relative to every other position group on the team. If he changes the culture of the room this year it will likely save Franklin from permanent...

    Eye Opening Article- It’s pretty clear Sandusky is most likely Innocent

    thanks for posting, with the benefit of hindsight there are still many things to learn from this debacle. First, the army of parasites that sought to exploit Joe's integrity during his prime as a coach is just appalling. Second, Joe was in the end just a human; my opinion of him began to change...

    Mauti returns home

    Hopefully, he can squeeze more money from the miserly PSU alumni base, and find a few whales to do the heavy lifting. Franklin needs help not only with his game coaching but with the fund raising.

    “Actor Steve Buscemi bloodied and bruised in NYC assault as police hunt attacker”

    This place sounds like a great place for a Rutgers branch campus.

    Ryan Day's job at Ohio State?

    Yeah look. As much as I hate to grant respect to these corrupt Columbusonians, but what they did this off-season is exactly what champs do. First they shopped at Alabama as we should have. Second, they hired a money grubber from the BIG 12 fits their culture. Third, they responded as they...
