Coastal Carolina - 10, #22 Penn State - 66 The long wait of the summer has finally paid off, and the crashing of pads and crunching of helmets for Penn State is now back! And boy did it come back today! Today's first game of the season proved why I have such high expectations of the team this year. 3 awesome senior receivers; 2 super underclassmen running backs; 2 capable QBs; special teams; the only real question was defense. While the defense did okay today, it was the offense that shined. Wow - did I actually say that? It has been a LONG time since I've been able to say that.

Not as good seats, either. In fact, I'm not sure if it was where I sat, but they didn't sound that good. But regardless, I think they put on a good show, and the fans were for the most part pretty electric. I was a little disappointed that they didn't sell out the arena.

I finally realized where Chris Daughtry got his version he performed on Idol. I remember... Read More »
