Game Thread Penn State at tOSU, Nov 19, 3:30 ET, ABC

I will be at this game...I am imagining it will be unlike anything the other 60 or so OSU games I've been to have offered in terms of atmosphere. Will be really interesting to see what it is like.

I'm going, too. Just hope the weather stays dry.

A bit of a tangent but does anyone have a link to the text of the letter of apology Penn State sent to TBDBITL after the 2005 nastiness?

I was at that game. My first - and likely last - visit to Crappy Valley.

So was I and it was by far the worst I've ever seen the place behavior wise (my first trip was in 94, that was by far the worst from the game standpoint).

However where we stand now Penn State fans want to pretend that they were not complete & utter cretins during that day and that the claims otherwise were made up by Buckeye fans.

That is why I'd like to find the actual apology from Penn State University for the actions of it's fans. Dr. Woods quotes regarding their behavior would be nice as well.

Penn State is as terrible as we are. They aren't beating us by 20 freaking points.
Their defense has played much, much better than ours this season. We gave up 20 to Indiana, for crying out loud, and then 26 to Purdue. The PSU DL is one of the best in the nation, and they'll be able to pack the box against Bollman's Special Sauce (predictable run game with deep throws and no misdirection).

There will be a special line on the vBet for this game - just for you.

If you really believe this, I expect to see a lot of your vCash on the Penn State -19.5 line, and I'll give you much better than even odds.
Give me 2:1 odds and I'll put half my vcash on the line at -19.5. Seriously.

I just have no confidence whatever in this team. Love Brax, love Boom, love the potential. Love Shazier, Roby, and the DLine, but with Big Hank and Sweat out, I see scheiss flying off the propellers this weekend.

Here is an article with quotes from Dr. Woods about the band's treatment during that game. Although it doesn't quote the letter itself, the article does indicate that "Penn State's apology to the band came in the form of a letter addressed to the President of OSU and the Band Director."

I am looking forward to seeing Bollman call for a run up the middle against PSU's D with 9 guys in the box on consecutive plays. I had to buy a new controller Sunday...In the Purdue game it was all I could take. I'm glad it was against the floor and not the sheetrock.

I keep thinking, he can't be that dumb...and yet I can absolutely already see it happening. LOL!

I read the earlier post pleading for decorum among our fans this week, and at first I agreed with it. Hell, I'm usually slammed around here for being too harsh and critical towards the actions of some elements of our fanbase on gameday.

Like I said, I initially agreed with it. Then, I thought about the students rioting in support of JoePa. How the Pedd State fans managed to turn Saturday into 5% about the victims and 95% about who they really see as the victim (hint, it's [censored]ing JoePa). Read the article about the fans abusing the guy with the sign calling for a forfeit.

As far as I'm concerned we don't need to play nice with these [censored]s. [censored] them. Anything short of threats, physical contact or an actual misdemeanor is fine by me. They don't deserve any kind of "Nebraska treatment." If any fanbase ever deserved to hear exactly and in precise detail what a disgrace their coach, program and university are and what a complete collection of arseholes they are, it is this one.

Then, I'll turn around and root for Wiscy to give them an earful next week.

Might I suggest some rousing chants of "2-4-6-8; where's your coach at Pedd State!"

Honestly, I question the sanity of any Penn State fan who is going to go on the road to C-Bus or Madison the next 2 weeks. I'm not sure of the point, you know at the very least you're going to have some not very flattering things said about you. And, at the worst, well, lets hope it doesn't come to "the worst"... I mean, I get that some will do it, but, they have to know it's not going to go well.

Lord knows that I'm no fan of Nebraska nor happy about their admittance into the Big Ten. I do, however, admire the behavior of their fanbase and am in fact a bit jealous of it. I just think if there's any one time to verbally unload on a visiting fanbase it's the Penn State fanbase at this particular time.

And don't think for a moment that these miserable self-righteous fucks weren't planning on rolling into Ohio Stadium with their pathetic "Legends and Liars" t-shirts and rubbing our face in our problems.

I'll echo this. If I were a PSU ticket holder, I'd be working Stub Hub and Razor Gator trying to dump my ticket for face to simply avoid the trip.
