Last year, after the 4-0 start, I drank too much of the Kool Aid and was disappointed by the 1-7 finish. This year, I told myself I needed to see us win more games in the B10 to know we were moving forward. With the 5-0 start, I was pretty happy, but still saying, 'we have to beat more than just Indiana'. Well, we competed against MSU and Iowa but lost and I was thinking this year was turning out eerily similar to last year. My feelings over the last 2 weeks (bye week) is that we have to win at least 2 of the next 3. I'd love to see us win against Wisky and/or OSU, but with what I've seen so far, that is certainly a stretch. Our D is just too young and not quite there yet. So, I sure hope this isn't like the switch to the 3-3-5 the week of Purdue in '08 that I think cost us that game. I think PSU is REALLY winnable and I hope the changes don't result in mistakes by some of the new guys and cost us the game. At this point, we need to win 2 games. At least finish 7-5 and a bowl. We see progress, the young guys get the benefit of the bowl preparations, and all that should help recruiting and solidifying RR (END THE "HE'S ON THE HOT SEAT" crap).
I hope Q. Washington can be effective and give MM a chance at a breather once in a while. I hope Vinopal learned enough in fall camp and in practices the first half of this season that he can produce and that is what the coaches are seeing. I hope bringing Cam closer to the LOS will allow him to light some people up.
Here's to PSU getting Denard'ed and the D making a few stops to get some confidece for a stretch run! Come on, Rich Rod. Go BLUE!
If you go to bigtennetwork.com/gamefinder you can enter your zip code and see if your cable/satellite provider has another channel that will broadcast the game you want. Big Ten Network is airing at least 4 games this weekend (I believe).
Also, you can watch it from their website (streaming video) day of the game (pretty sure I saw this on their web site).
