We’re All Wisconsin Fans

Posted on December 5, 2014 Written by The Nittany Turkey

On Wisconsin!

Wisconsin BadgersAs you’re probably aware, Penn State, although bowl eligible, might not be bowl bound if the stars don’t align properly and the Feng Shui is incorrect and the Creeks don’t rise, etc. There might not be enough Big Ten bowl slots to accommodate all the eligible teams. Penn State, with a 6-6 record and having lost to the other 6-6 team, Illinois, is on the bubble. [Read more…]

Annual Coaching Merry-Go-Round Commences

Posted on December 3, 2014 Written by The Nittany Turkey

MMBH Canned at Michigan

Yeah, it’s official. Michigan Man Brady Hoke (MMBH) is out the door at the University of Michigan, and the Carcajous will be looking for a coach as well as an athletic director. Hoke’s deal included a $3 million buyout, so I don’t feel too sorry for him. Based on his total compensation over four years amounting to $17.34 million.

Fitting End to a Discomfiting Season

Posted on November 30, 2014 Written by The Nittany Turkey

Michigan State 34, Penn State 10

The Michigan State game went as most of us non-delusional fans expected deep down, even though a few of us held out hopes for a close game. If you want to play the K. John game and nullify the opening kickoff return for a TD, the first half ended with a Moo U. 6-3 advantage. However, even without the Sanguinarian filter, we knew that 13-3 would be about as good as it would get for dear old State. That became apparent when they could only manage to squeeze three points out of several decent opportunities in the second quarter.
