Penn State's football program currently ranks third in the nation for it's 2010 recruiting class, according to Rivals.com .
The only two schools the Nittany Lions trail are Texas and Alabama.
Penn State is eleven spots ahead of any other Big Ten teams, as Michigan is ranked 14th, and currently has 14 [...]
When the Michigan State Spartans traveled to Happy Valley to play the Penn State Nittany Lions in the 2008 season, both programs were having pretty good years by their standards.
Spartans head coach Mark Dantonio was leaving his mark in only his second year of tenure, while Joe Paterno had the [...]
After finishing the season on a high note, the Penn State football team will have to wait until Dec. 6 to learn what bowl they will play in.
The Nittany Lions came into Saturday’s game against Michigan State with an outside chance of a BCS bowl bid and were able to [...]

With one game remaining in the regular season, at this point every Penn State fan has one thing on their mind, and that is what bowl game will their Nittany Lions end up. When the season begins, every college football team has the same goal, and that is to make [...]

[...] I've just been reading an intriguing piece about crowd trouble at football games that was highlighted by a front page picture of fans tearing down goalposts, which everyone else thinks is a pretty romantic notion. That includes ESPN, which see rushing the field as something romantic.
But now, that' [...]
Last week was a tough one because I believed Duke could beat North Carolina, Oklahoma could beat Nebraska, Notre Dame could beat Navy (what was I thinking there?) and Penn State could beat Ohio State.
That puts us at 73-27 for the season. We’ll try to do better this week as [...]

I’m not sure whether to call 2009 "The Year of the Mid-Major" (Boise State and Texas Christian are in the top six; Houston, Utah, Brigham Young, and Central Michigan all are ranked, as well) or "The Year of the Little Brother" (Pittsburgh is ranked higher than Penn State; Georgia Tech [...]
I know, believe me, I know. You think I'm crazy. You think I'm delusional. You think I didn't take my meds today. But, the fact is that Penn State, somehow, someway still has a shot at making a BCS bowl game.
Do they deserve it? Absolutely not. They lost against the' [...]
Yes, we know. Penn State lost. And yes, we at the VFA are pretty pissed off about it. At least, we were, until we reminded ourselves that Penn State had waxed Michigan on their own turf earlier in the season, and life was feeling a little better. We also reminded [...]
The Big Ten conference underwent a significant shakeup this past week with Northwestern's big upset over previously unbeaten Iowa and Ohio State's high profile win at Penn State.
Also, with Illinois' win in Minnesota and Purdue's win over the Wolverines, every team in the conference remains in the running for bowl' [...]
The day started out on a very positive note in sunny Happy Valley. While some of the games earlier this season had terrible weather, that was not the case on Saturday. The sun was out and it was rather warm for a November evening.
The day started out well as the [...]
With no marquee wins to its name in 2009 thus far, Penn State fans can hardly go crazy about this season.
The source of the team's problems can be found in its very weak offensive line.
We knew that the offensive line was weak going into the year—Joe Paterno told [...]
Before the Penn State game I had three points that Penn State would have to do to win the game.
The first was to contain the Buckeye's run game. This obviously was not done.
The Buckeyes were able to run the ball with ease between the tackles with "Boom" Herron and Brandon' [...]
Returning to the school he looked past in high school and with Penn State fans sporting insulting T-shirts, Terrelle Pryor made sure he would silence his critics, at least for one night.
Ohio State was a media underdog against favored Penn State, but put forth a dominant second half and three [...]
Especially if you are a member of the Penn State blog, BlackShoeDiaries.
Honestly, I don't usually rub it in to the opposing fans after the Buckeyes win, but a large majority of the PSU fan base deserves it after the comments and overload of venomous trash talk they spewed leading up' [...]
Saturday was a big day for the Ohio State Buckeyes and the Alabama Crimson Tide.
Ohio State put their foot on the neck of rival Penn State in Happy Valley, 24-7, to lay claim as the eminent challenger for the Nittany Lions' Big 10 crown.
The Buckeye position was further enhanced by Iowa's dismal performance and 17-10' [...]
