The Penn State vs. Illinois showdown is in jeopardy. No Lovie lost, you say?

Under these circumstances and given that fans are not permitted to attend games in Pennsylvania, would it not be foolhardy and ridiculous to play a meaningless game on Saturday? Call it off, already!

I would be willing to bet, by all that is holy, that the great spirits of Big Ten football will exercise common sense. Similarly, I would bet my first-born son that there will be fans who are incensed by that decision.

What’s the over/under in feet or meters snow blanketed Beaver Stadium will lie under by Thursday?
This Turkey awaits further word from the weatherman and the Big Ten.

Think the over/under for the storm is 18 inches – which is fairly routine for State College.
The ban on fans actually makes it more likely that the game will be played since they don’t have to clear snow off the stands. And the groundskeepers have a day and a half to clear off the field and the camera locations. The bigger issue is whether Illinois will be able to fly in and get to their hotel on Friday.
IMO The B1G wants State to have another win so that the Mayo Bowl will select them. If so, State better hope that they don’t have to play North Carolina. It would appear that the Kitties and the winner of the Minnesota/Wisconsin game will competing for the Mayo and Music City bowl bids.
