HuskerfaninOkieland Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 Is facing an 0-2 start if they can't keep UVA out of the endzone on this drive. UVA on the 6yd line with 1:31 left in the game Quote Link to comment

HuskerShark Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 Penn State fans might start wearing paper bags on their heads soon. Embarrassing start to the season. Quote Link to comment
Excel Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 Embarrassing? They lost close games to two somewhat good teams. Granted, no Sandusky scandal and they probably win both but UVA and Ohio were decent last year and both are well coached. Quote Link to comment
husker B-rent Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 those are embarrassing losses for a program with that history, no other way to slice it. i would be embarrassed as hell. Quote Link to comment
WoodyHayes1951 Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 Considering everything that went on since November I'd say this is no surprise. Quote Link to comment

Granted, no Sandusky scandal and they probably win both but UVA and Ohio were decent last year and both are well coached. While that's true, there is still no excuse for PSU to lose either of those games. They have superior talent to both and actually dominated today but they folded down the stretch in each of those games. To me (and I know people won't want to hear this) this shows how good of a coach JoePa really was, personal issues aside. His teams always seemed to execute well and not beat themselves with miscues and bad penalties (or at least from what little I watched of Penn State before last year). Quote Link to comment

You do know he hasn't really coached a game since the 90's right? This was Tom Bradley's team for about a decade. JoePa was the mascot on the sidelines Quote Link to comment

You don't think that had anything to do with the distractions, riots, raping allegations,etc surrounding these 18-21 year olds? Paterno didn't call one play last year. fact Quote Link to comment
