I feel like this is going to be a tense, stressful game to watch for fans of both teams – much like last year’s. And, like last year’s, likely to be close and low-scoring, and to be decided by one or two big plays/mistakes. I am not optimistic, other than in the sense of anticipating Pryor’s inevitable takeover of SOME big game, SOME day – but until that actually happens, that’s magical/wishful thinking.

Now I have to go YouTube some Black Adder clips, like I always do after I hear or read the name “Odrick”.

Just some points for you: it’s Ako Poti, not Pati, and as far as Royster in the passing game, Penn State will go 5-wide and line him up in the slot. There are some screen passes too, but he’s actually a downfield threat in the passing game. Hayes will be rotating with Latimore at defensive end, Hayes usually sees more time, and especially as a pass rushing threat, stand-up DE type. As for the linebackers, Lee and Bowman have both missed about half the season with injuries, but have been coming on strong. Bowman will probably shadow Pryor, like he did against Forcier and Juice. In the secondary, Lynn has been our best corner, though Wallace has also been solid.
