So which of the announcing crews are we getting for the game? Considering that it is a Thursday night game, it usually is the D-list group, but it is the opening game of the season for both.

There is nothing better than football season. Wahoo! Go State!

 

[Midnighter]

On the ESPN College Football show tonight they were doing over/under on wins for Big Ten teams. PSU was up first 8.5. David Pollack took the under, Desmond Howard the over. Go figure.

 

[VaDave4PSU]

I can't remember Pollock ever saying anything nice about PSU.

Howard is similar to Herbie. He tends to puff us up before we play Michigan.

 

[CDLionFL]

I'll throw my money on Tim Brando and whoever his analyst is. I think it was Spencer Tillman in years past.

Well, this did nothing to assuage my concerns about this game. The guy makes some good points. Heck, I started to fear a blowout. Someone help me!

AoC is a good QB who is very accurate. He's probably not going to have a bad game unless we blow up the interior and or blanket his WRs. Edge rush will be neutralized if we allow the dink and dunk.

The biggest storyline is going to be our offense. Clifford's second year with an OC is going to be huge. Improved RBs could be a 10 point swing to the good alone.
