The Nittany Turkey

Primarily about Penn State football, this is a tale told by idiots, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.

Second Half Team Rides Again!

Posted on November 27, 2016 Written by The Nittany Turkey

Penn State 45, Moo U. 12

The mighty #7 Penn State Nittany Lions (10-2, 8-1 Big Ten) defeated the struggling Michigan State Spartans (3-9, 1-8), better known as Moo U., to recapture the crappy Land Grant Trophy. The final score was 45-12. More importantly, the Nittany Lions will be playing in the Big Ten Championship. [Read more…]

Michigan State: Who Be Dat Moo U?

Posted on November 25, 2015 Written by The Nittany Turkey

Penn State vs. Michigan State

I’m writing a abbreviated version of the usual pre-game preview and predictions because time is running out in the pre-Thanksgiving hours for this pre-eminent turkey. This is a dangerous time of year for turkeys, so I’m laying low.

The Land Grant Trophy Classic

Land Grant Trophy
Land Grant Trophy

This is the season finale for Penn State, the battle for the ugly and unwanted Land Grant Trophy. Our mighty Penn State Nittany Lions (7-4, 4-3 Big Ten) travel to East Lansing to take on the #5 Michigan State Spartans (10-1, 6-1 Big Ten). Last weekend, Michigan State dominated #3 Ohio State, who could muster no offense in the 17-14 Spartan victory. The Buckeyes generated only 132 yards total offense and five first downs against the MSU defense, leaving tOSU in such disarray that Zeke Elliott dissed Urban Meyer in public and Meyer pretty much agreed with his diss-course.

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. In the end, it was Moo U. 34, Penn State 10, and there’s no debating that. [Read more…]

Whodat Turkey?

The Nittany Turkey is a retired techno-geek who thinks he knows something about Penn State football and everything else in the world. If there's a topic, we have an opinion on it, and you know what "they" say about opinions! Most of what is posted here involves a heavy dose of hip-shooting conjecture, but unlike some other blogs, we don't represent it as fact. Read More…
