The Role of Spoilers

Posted on November 1, 2017 Written by The Nittany Turkey

Land Grant Trophy, which is awarded to the winner of the formerly annual Michigan State vs. Penn State football game.

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…
