Easy non-con schedule, which is typical of the Big 10. They could lose all 4 of their conference away games. 8-4 would not be a major surprise.

Yea its kinda weird 10-1 or 9-2 Season but, I really like what our Spread Offense and strong upfront D is doing.

[scarletbolt21]

They will have a eight win season. I would give them more but there star linebacker is out for the season.

Penn State has a much better chance of defeating Michigan at home than they do of beating Purdue, Wisconsin, or Iowa away. If Penn State is a 10-2 team, the Big 10 is in real trouble. This team simply does not have that type of talent.

I agree they did`nt get Pryor and they dont have any big name on offense. You can keep points low but if you can`t score you can`t win.

Now that Anthony Morelli is ***Finally*** Out of the Picture and Now we have two speedy QB's (Daryl Clark Senior and Pat Devlin Junior) Penn State is successfull with a Spread Offense look at the 2005 Team the spread O is what got us to the Orange Bowl not to mention the Leadership we had in 05. Last thing I want to see is Joe bring PSU its 3rd BT Championship and its 3rd National Championship.

[scarletbolt21]

Sorry you guys are good but not that good.

[PhillyLion82]

Yea but hopfully. My goal for this year is to Beat UM and end the curse. also hopfully not loosing to teams we should have beaten. EX. MSU,ILLI.

[GaFootballFan]

9-3 Season, They Lose To OSU, Mich, And Wisconson.

[scarletbolt21]

I thought they may be able to knock of wisconsin in an upset. But after all those big injuries I don`t expect it.

Umm, im pretty sure there is a reason they are called "Linebacker U"?
Penn State will be fine at LB, Losing Lee is just a minor setback. As far as not having enough talent to win a conference title, or a national title for that mater we have:
Derrick Williams
Deon Butler
Jordan Norwood
Darryl Clark
Evan Royster
Maurice Evans
AQ Shipley
Jerome Hayes

Need i say more?
We have plenty of talent, and with Galen deciding to run a spread like they did in 2005, which was VERY successful, if the 11-1 record and 3OT Orange Bowl win don't speak for themselves, PSU is going to restore the roar this year in Happy Valley.
