    Question for all the Penn St. backers

    None of us can win em all but I read allot of strong feeling about this game on here and i am curios...after watching the 1st quarter what answer would you pick below if you had to pick one...

    a) underestimated houston offense

    b) overestimated penn st. defense

    c) underestimated how bad penn st offense is

    my question is how in the world was everyone on penn st.? i really honestly don't understand it. who is psu football recently in light of everything that happened. it comes into play regardless how you feel about the situation. sure they have a great defense but houston is just a powerhouse.

    Did not know that McGloin was not playing. I know he sucks, but this other guy is a bullshit QB. He is Houston's 12th man on defense practically.

    Glad I went with the betpoints option.

    Question for the Houston backer who started this thread in the first quarter.

    It's 17-7 now, and it looks like PSU is figuring out Houston's offense.
    And looks like PSU also got some offense rolling also.

    Will you be here at the end of the game if PSU mounts a second half comeback and wins this outright?

    Know this, if it does happen, I will ride you like one of those rented mules you see at the Grand Canyon.

    yeah its far from over and wasn't trying to shove it in anyone's face at all. i will be here to take whatever you want to dish out if penn st comes back. i felt strong about this game but was getting worried by all the strong comments about penn st. anyways like i said not like any of us can win em all...bol to e1

    Are you serious?? Penn State is done. There wont be a 2nd half comeback of 17-24 points.

    Like your style Nash you make an outlandish claim and then threaten to ride a guy who made a solid argument on a game because you were wrong from the get go. I know anything can happen but theres been nothing to indicate a second half comeback of any kind.

    First off, I said 'if'
    Second off, nowhere does the OP state he's on Houston until after the first is ended.
    Then he starts this thread like he's got 10 dimes on the game, like he's a genius.

    Sorry, the OP has no credibility.

    19th it sure looks like it huh but not really. all year i stayed clear of ohio st games and went against nebraska allot but just wanted to play all the bowl games today for the hell of it. ended up with them as my picks today i really thought ohio st defense would be able to hang with florida...looks like i was wayyyy off on that one

    Guess what... it didn't happen... so how 'bout you get on your knees, close your eyes, open your mouth and stick out your tongue and get ready to receive communion.

    He was merely asking a civil question.
