We've Got Your "Seven Nation Army" Right Here.
This is what Big Ten support is all about, ladies and gentlemen. I’ll also kindly refrain from any incest jokes about Ohio.
Stop me if you’ve heard of this scenario before: Penn State jumps out to an early lead but over the course of the game, fails to capitalize on opportunities to blow the game wide [...]
Yeah, I know. I didn’t get anything about the Fighting DeChellises’ trip to Minnesota up. I blame the holiday laziness for that. But I’ll be damned if I don’t finish this countdown. If you just started following this countdown, stop cheating and read Nos. 10-7 and 6-4 first.
3. at Northwestern (September 24, 2005)
The first half [...]
Apologies for getting this up so late. I also have come to realize that perhaps #10 on the list (Notre Dame 2007) should be replaced with last year’s futility-streak breaking win against Michigan, the Wolverines were just as crappy as that 07 Irish team but beating them was a far bigger deal. I know what [...]
After a decade of domination courtesy of the ACC, the Big Ten finally prevailed for the first time ever in the Big Ten/ACC Challenge. It didn’t come however without lots of blood, sweat, and tears. Penn State needed a big second half against Virginia then almost blew it at the end, same story with Wisconsin [...]
Allow me to say, I’m not pissed off over the fact we lost to Ohio State. The Buckeyes were certainly more than capable of beating us, despite the fact this year’s squad doesn’t quite stack up with OSU teams of previous seasons. No, I’m pissed off because Penn State displayed absolutely ZERO heart and desire [...]
So my entire week has been at the mercy of a dreaded term paper which conveniently enough was due the weekend of the Ohio State game…awesome. As a result, there’s not going to be any full-fledged preview but rather some quick thoughts on tomorrow’s game:
Judging from what I’ve read on numerous Penn State and Ohio [...]
$100 says this guy had the smarts to go to Ohio State: What happens when you’re an Ohio State team with the most overrated QB since Ron Powlus and said overrated QB turns the ball over four times, causing you to lose against a 1-5 Purdue team? In Terrelle Pryor’s case, skinny redneck armchair quarterbacks [...]
That’s right boys and girls, no pre-rank ramblings from Yours Truly this week. Let’s get right to the rankings, shall we?
1. Ohio State – Say what you want about Terrelle Pryor’s ineffectiveness as a passer but the Buckeyes just find ways to rack up points as two pick-sixes by the defense helped turn what should’ve [...]
Unfortunately, no time for Big Ten Power Rankings this week. Instead, I’ll quickly put up my postings for this week’s Big Ten Pick ‘Em challenge sponsored by Gopher Nation. Here are the standings so far after five weeks, as you can see, I’m representing the PSU blogosphere pretty well thus far.

Three things are certain at the end of every September: Fall foliage begins, Conference play in college football begins, and HHV’s Big Ten Power Rankings rise from the woodwork. Now in its third season, the rankings have become some sort of a staple of this blog that has led to plenty of praise along with [...]
