That was really 60 minutes of excellent football.

I guess if you're a Hawkeye fan. If you follow PSU that was probably the worst 3 quarters of play ever turned in by a Penn State team. The fourth quarter was pathetic. Penn State would've lost to Akron if they'd played as poorly as they played tonight.

Disgusting and amateurish. A team with great talent and no heart whatsoever.

Lots of people were picking Iowa to cover at the very least.

Can't agree with you, though. Penn State was, and is, overrated.

When I was a student at Iowa, the Hawkeyes played Penn State almost every year in their non conference schedule. I had a part time weekend job at KXIC radio and we were all the 'feed' station for a network of stations that broadcast the games. Gene Claussen, KXIC's owner, did play by play.
My job was to "run the board," back timing all the commercials and interviews so that at exactly 1:04.55 PM, I could introduce Gene and Gene would start talking at exactly 1:05 PM.
One Saturday as I was stacking up the prerecorded tape cartridges I discovered one of the shows was missing. I looked in every office and file and with time running out, located the previous week's show in one of the studios. When the time came, in it went, and I braced for what was to come.
Among the more memorable phone calls was a listener who said, "No damned wonder the Hawkeyes stink. You've sent Gene to Happy Valley. The game is in Columbus !"
