We Are ...

- glad we're not in the stands for a 5:30 pm start of a game on 12/19 @ State College
- trying to make it four in a row, @ILLINOISLION
- hoping that @Midnighter's bar has some drinks that celebrate the season AND the last non-Bowl game of the season
- expecting to have a lot to celebrate during the game
- really hoping that @Midnighter's bar has his most talented personnel (i.e., most well endowed) serving up the drinks.
- wishing everyone a happy and healthy holiday

... Penn State!!!!

You're in luck Tom....

Maybe the last game day of the year for the Nittany Lion faithful, and the Midnighter Bar has game day specials to wet your whistle (some for our Illinois friends too).

Whatever you do DO NOT do the drinking game Tom linked in his Illinois preview thread; calls for a BIG DRINK every time Levis comes in for a run. You might kill yourself doing this.

Best of luck to the Nittany Lions tonight.

there's a game going on? I may miss most of it, just gazing at Amanda.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

Oh great ... O'Neill is the referee. smh

 

[CoolBean]

Strange sight

 

[AWS1022]

Hopefully we can get some turnovers tonight and win the game comfortably. It’s hard to blow someone out without turnovers.

 

[Nitwit]

Let’s beat the crap out of them today. I’m hoping for a statement game.

 

[81b&w]

They'll probably have heaters and we won't

 

[Tom McAndrew]

Illini win the toss and defer, so PSU will start out on O

 

[CoolBean]

wow TD #5

 

[Greg80]

Well that was fast

 

[Tom McAndrew]

1st play from scrimmage, and Dotson with a 75-yard TD!!!!!!

 

[PSUcup1]

Wow

 

[Tom McAndrew]

7-0, PSU, with 14:48 left in the 1st qtr.

CJF likes his big plays.

 

[MtNittany]

That's a nice start. Even against IL.

 

[harjeff]

Well that was quick and very nice start!

 

[katchthis]

Wow

 

[AWS1022]

4 of the 6 healthy LB’s for Illinois are walk ons....should be able to run.

 

[djr4rebs]

Can we focus on getting Dotson 305 receiving yards today? Love to have a 1000 yard WR.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

considering all the snow on Wednesday, the Beaver Stadium field looks great. Well done grounds crew.

 

[ILLINOISLION]

Tom for the Q U A D F E C T A !

 

[PSUcup1]

Pathetic tackling

 

[CoolBean]

 

[GregInPitt]

Did Brisker get away with putting his helmet on quickly after it came off on the 2nd down play?

 

[Tom McAndrew]

INT by PSU

 

[PSUcup1]

Great pick Ellis

 

[CoolBean]

Nice catch #2 INT
