Rutgers isn’t the only fanbase with Penn State disdain

ESPN is in town and Pat Mcafee did his “gameday” style show today in Morgantown ahead of the Penn State game tomorrow. A PSU fan showed up and was immediately greeted by the Mountaineer faithful.

Can you imagine if this happened at Rutgers with the water bottles? The Star Ledger and Murphy’s office would have the football program shut down

Does the Howard Game Make Scott Van Pelt's "Bad Beats" Segment?

With the early spread being 34.5-35.5, as per an earlier thread on this and with the final spread being 38.5 this game was a classic case where, with an actual spread of 37 there were likely folks who won on both sides of the moving spread, which is like the Holy Grail of gambling. In addition, those who had Howard and 34.5 or 35.5 or even 36.5 points (given the moving spread, I'm sure there were points in-between the initial spread of 34.5 and the final spread of 38.5), who just took a terrible beating on the last play of the game.

And to make it worse, this was on a final RU possession after Howard tried to score with a minute or so left, rather than running the clock out and turned the ball over on downs to RU - and then RU also didn't kneel the last minute out, but ran plays and scored that final TD on the last play of the game, which started with 7 seconds left! I have to believe this game makes SVP's bad beat$ segment with Stanford Steve. I find those to often be entertaining and sometimes hilarious. And by the way, the bad beat also goes for the over/under which opened at 48 and ended up at 50.5 and that last TD brought the total to 51, torpedoing those how bet the under. It's also the first time I can recall Schiano not running the clock out when up several TDs and under a minute left - hopefully he cashed in, lol (kidding).
