Penn State gonna twist up Sparty like a pretzel

It hurts to write this but, gotta be honest with this preview:

In the wet and cold rain, with an ineffective Spartan passing game going up against a staunch defense in Penn State, the Spartan Nation can expect the soggy, butterfinger Spartans to forgo the run and pass themselves to defeat.  The season got ugly two games ago, and it's just getting worse...

Prognostications:

Australian Paul:  MSU 28-24
Poke: 90% chance of rain for the entire game. 6-0 for whichever team recovers a muffed punt inside the 20 yard line.
Chris Zech:  PSU 43-8
Big Joe and Phantom 309: 31-17
GVSU Gregger: 27-10 PSU
RGM3: 24-21 green and white guys
Big Bob:  PSU 98-3
Sloth:  I will hate Dantonio even more
C Hock:  PSU 7-6
Kat:  still sleeping

ES sez:  PSU 28-7

ES just had discussions with Joe over a possible tie in college football.  It can.  It is either a nuke or an asteroid hitting Columbus.  I'm rooting for the asteroid.   Or, it would be great to see these two thugs, Urban Meyer and Jesus Harbaugh, drop the gloves and have a slugfest at mid-field.

Oh, I'm sorry.  Back to MSU vs Penn State.  ES has been to State College, Happy Valley, whatever you want to call it.  About the most remote place on earth.  It's in the middle of nowhere, 60 miles from nothingsville.  The only thing to do is football.  And, that stadium is LOUD.

Fro the Peanut Barrel, the picks...
