Penn St. (12-13) vs. Nebraska (17-8) Game Thread

[Bugeaters1]

Daryl Hall and John Oates, commonly known as Hall & Oates, were an American pop rock duo formed in Philadelphia in 1970. Daryl Hall was generally the lead vocalist; John Oates primarily played the electric guitar and provided backing vocals. There are lots of bands from Pennsylvania. Sorry Cip been busy today, but you go.

Pennsylvania is similar to Michigan where they have a butt load of musical talent.  They have a similar fate awaiting them in Lincoln, Saturday.

Watched their game against Michigan State last night. They play an ugly brand of basketball and will yell/whine at the officials after every call that doesn’t go their way. Similar to Rutgers. Glad we don’t play them at their place this year.

Like the Ioa womens team.

Still in that Valentine's Day frame of mind.  George Benson is sooo good!

Is there a music group from the part of Pennsylvania that people don't want to be from?

Will be missing this game due to prior commitment.  My brother who is not a sport fan will be joining my dad at this game.  He seldom does stuff with my parents, so happy he's going to be having some father son bonding time. Our dad is in his 80s...so this is much needed and much overdue.

I owned Metaphysical Graffiti on cassette and was partial to Cousin Earl and Methodist Coloring Book. This was as peak punk as I ever got.

Big favorites again Saturday - we have 5 straight outright wins when we're favored in B1G games. Expecting to get #6 tomorrow.

Hopefully Tominaga can have a big game tomorrow.

I wouldn't be shocked if he is flirting with another 30 point game.

This Penn State team both staff and players (except a few) have never gone against Keisei. 

It will be really interesting to see how PSU tries to guard Tominaga.

I wouldn't count on that as Mike Rhodes focuses more of taking away the 3 than Micah Shrewsberry did

Good point.
The Lions 3pt defense has been pretty good this year.

Hopefully he gets a lot of backdoors and easy two's.

Penn State at 11 am isn't a great start time against a opponent that doesn't have basketball tradition that people can get up for....brings back memories of us losing an early Sunday morning game to Northwestern.  That week of rest will help though.

hoiberg mentioned wanting to have multiple ball handlers on the court tomorrow to deal with pressure.  Interested to see if starters change,

Haven't really done this before but hoping to get there near to when the gates open and get one of my boys a few autographs and pictures.

Saturday is a much different animal than Sunday.  People are ready to party on a Saturday.  Weather is decent tomorrow.  I foresee an energetic crowd.  The team shouldn't need it at this stage of the season, though.  Just get the "W" and we're one step closer to dancing!

We've had luck going down to the corner where the players stretch with the elastic bands and do weight work.  My boys got a half dozen autographs and pictures a few years ago.  Good memories.

I am pretty worried about this one.  They are pretty quick jumping rim protectors as well.  We really need to bring energy on the boards to get more possessions.

I mean the template has been shown. Foul the hell out of him until the refs call it...which most of the time they don't
