And most of the top ten schools fanbases will say a variation of the same thing at the end of the year. Only 1 will be completely happy with this season’s outcome.
Disagree. That psu defense was legit. With a competent offense it could have kept us in every game against anyone.

Disagree all you want. Your retort doesn’t really acknowledge what I said. You’ll probably find something to complain about regardless.

Yeah, I’ll switch as well. I was watching Wisconsin-Minnesota.
My aunt the nun is DMV born and bred and still asks if I’m supporting Maryland when I tell her I’m going to see PSU at Byrd Stadium. I’ve told her a dozen times…

She went to St. Mary’s in South Bend and was a regular at the Notre Dame games. “Hey, Auntie, Penn State is playing Notre Dame this year.” “I’m sorry.”

WSU wins do the Buckeyes have a path?
I really don’t know what to take from today’s OSU-UM game. That first interception was brutally bad and brutally costly. My take is that the better team won. If it were up to me, OSU would miss CFP.

I’m not sure I can name 4 teams better though. They just as easily could have been on the winning end of that game. But that pick, ouch.

Cuse gets W over Wake. Bowl eligible. Hearing Pinstripe possibly vs Rutgers.

Tonight at the dinner table:

Franklin: At least I’m not ryan day.

Fumi: Really, James?

Franklin: 😞
He’s got a point. Losing to Michigan isn’t tolerated. John Cooper got fired in the 90’s because he couldn’t beat Michigan.

Wrong. Cooper got fired in the early 2000’s. Tressel then took over. I am not sure a Cooper coached team ever beat UM.

Odd response, but ok. That defense we had usually doesn’t rise to the level we see at PSU. Particularly without that Maybin type pass rusher. Other schools can say what they want about their own talent this year and maybe they are right, but I’ve seen enough in the BIG to know that guys like Barkley, stroud and Harrison are rare. So was our defense this year. To CJF’s credit, he recruited the secondary well because we usually stink back there. Somehow, that interior line and our razor thin depth chart at LB held up and played well. A guy like Harrison or Barkley can take over a game on offense. The defense needs 11 guys. That’s extremely difficult to pull off; even more impressive is the fact that these aren’t Manny’s guys and he’s hasn’t had four years with any of them. So, yeah it was wasted this year. Don’t take my word for it, go watch the replays.

Look, enjoy your 10-2 season. Tell me, which loss made you the happiest to watch?

Some of us choose to enjoy the 10 wins more than cry and whine about the 2 losses. Silly us…

Tell me your favorite loss this year? Which was it? I wouldn’t pick any of them, but obviously you like watching us lose, so tell me which one it was?

Where did I, or anyone, say that I had a favorite loss? Neither was fun, neither was good. But I choose to enjoy the 10 victories and not let the 2 losses make me a bitter crybaby.

Answer the question. 10-2 makes you happy. PSU Losing makes you happy. I want to hear which of our two losses made you the happiest.

Alabama not only had as refs on their side but lady luck too. They are going to get their clocks cleaned next week against Georgia.
