Yes, I know the BCS Standings haven't actually come out yet. A mere formality. And at least the Huskers won't have to worry about losing to Colorado this year - the Buffs (or is that Bluffs?) look even sorrier than Nebraska does!

I think the Trojans finally have the O.J. curse off them. They dismantled Colorado. My early prediction, Miami and USC for all the marbles.

Here's a Pitt grad from the 60's who says congrats to JoePa and the team.....one a$$ kicking. Nebraska #1! Penn State drops in rankings!

Great game! Or course, living in PA as I do, it's imperative that one be a PSU fan, even if one didn't attend PSU.

The Penn State offense operated like a well-oiled machine and except for the one easy TD drive that Nebraska had in the first half, the PSU defense limited Neb. to mostly 3 and out.

But as in '95 (or was it '96), Nebraska could probably drop 1 or 2 more games and still best PSU in the standings, even if PSU goes undefeated.

Another point. Could the Lions have even scored more last night?

JoePa is a good sport in every fiber of his being. Whereas other coaches (certain ones in FL come to mind) will run the score up as high as it will go if pursuit of rankings, JoePa will not. If he thinks the game is well in hand, he will employ a more conservative offense and let 2nd stringers play. This approach no doubt has hurt him ranking-wise on occasion, but it's the honorable approach. He is a PA treasure.
