Last week ATS: 5-9 (4-4 National, 1-5 B1G) Season ATS: 86-86 (37-44 National, 49-42 B1G) Last week wasn’t my finest set of picks, as I went 5-9 to drop to .500 on the season. I should have known my week was going to be cooked when Georgia had a chance to score late in the […]

Every season, the spotlight burns brightest on the stars — the quarterbacks, the playmaking receivers, the dominant edge rushers. But every championship-caliber team needs its glue guys. The reliable, physical, unselfish players who keep everything together when the lights are brightest. For Ohio State, several names fit that description this year. None may lead the […]

#Ranking season is finally upon us, and Alabama placed 4th in the first CFP bracket of the year. The top 4 were about as chalk as you could possibly expect. Ohio State was the easy #1 team, as they’ve obliterated everyone they’ve played. Indiana and Texas A&M were fairly interchangeable at 2 and 3. The […]

Even though Penn State’s season has gone off the rails compared to preseason expectations, the show must go on – and this year, there’s a lot to double take at in college football. Some things, though, remain the same; last year’s national champ, Ohio State, is unsurprisingly #1 in the first rankings. This week’s PSU […]

With some of the top teams off (Alabama, Texas A&M, Oregon) and others playing conference doormats (Penn State-Ohio State, Indiana-Maryland) as per usual, the SEC took center stage. It was much better entertainment than watching the Dodgers’ “bought” World Series win. One shlock-fest in particular caught some eyes for the car crash that it was: […]

New court laid out, new lights in the rafters, new German-born big man patrolling the paint.

I wrote a couple weeks ago about the countdown to Kaytron Allen trying to become the Penn State career rushing leader, and given the relative meh-ness of this season, I think I’m going to keep tabs on it on a weekly basis, or at least until something more fun happens.

Well, at least that first half was kinda fun, no? Time to rip off the band-aid, once again… Quarterback: C Considering this was his second career start against yet another ferocious defense, Ethan Grunkemeyer did not allow himself to get rattled and even made some nice throws when he had time in the pocket.

While fan expectations were not high for Penn State’s once-marquee matchup with Ohio State, the Nittany Lions still got their money’s worth in the first half. Nicholas Singleton rounded into form, and Ethan Grunkemeyer helped orchestrate one of the team’s best drives of the season. Suddenly, Penn State was within one score. Still, plenty of […]

1) Good first half Penn State didn’t roll over, staying with the Buckeyes blow for blow. It looked like it was going to get out of hand early, but Penn State took advantage of a rare Ohio State turnover to turn what could have been a 24-7 hole into a 17-14 halftime score. 2) Bad […]
