After losing to B1G bottom feeder in the opener (at Urbana-Champaign), the Flashers are coming off a confidence inspiring, 54-14 blowout win over FCS Howard (0-2). You know what the Lions did last week, beating a sorry instance of our former cross-state rivals at Pitt, 51-6.
When the highlight reel play of the game is a novelty tackle by 380 lb kicker Joey "Big Toe" Julius, then you know there ain't much to say.
Last year, the Nittany Lions wound up the season with a 7-6 record, including a bowl loss to Georgia, placing fourth in the Big Ten East, while the Golden Flashes sputtered to a 3-9 record that was good for fifth in the MAC East.
