11 charged over widespread damage after Penn St.’s upset win

Las Vegas says: Penn State is a 13.5-point favorite as of Thursday afternoon.

Barkley was mentioned above and should get the lion share of the work against a leaky Purdue defense, but look for the other backs: Mark Allen, Andre Robinson and Miles Sanders to have opportunities against Purdue as well. And as always running opens up the pass which ought to mean Penn State could have quite the day with Joe Moorhead’s read-pass-option packages. With a very favorable schedule down the stretch that could see them possibly win out, all of a sudden the Nittany Lions are in play for a Big Ten East title and staring at a possible 10-2 regular season, but they first must avoid a letdown Saturday to a struggling Purdue squad which is coming off a strong effort led by interim coach Gerad Parker. It will be much quieter than a typical Big Ten road game, so the PSU players have to find a way to get themselves fired up.

“I think it’s great”, Franklin said. Nothing makes me more happy.

Yeah, it was that kind of night. “I didn’t realize how many things you have to be aware of during a game to manage a game for your whole organization”. “I was so thankful”. This place has such great roots, it’s incredible. “It didn’t feel as weird as I thought it would”.

Johnson laughed while recalling the celebration back in 2005, too, when student-fans carried on the party downtown, and he couldn’t get into the town’s main club. Franklin’s typical weekly press conference was pushed back to 1 p.m. Wednesday. However since joining the Big Ten, Wisconsin has been the Huskers’ kryptonite, the Roadrunner to their Wiley E. Coyote, their Dr.

“I realize that nothing really affects me the way football does”, he said. The same mistakes that were there in game one under Hazell (which was a 42-7 loss at Cincinnati) were still there in the Iowa loss.

H&R: A think it is a little of both.

“I said after the MI loss that we just got to regroup and rebound because our goals are still in line”, Running back Saquon Barkley said. “Our kids are excited for this week”.

McSorley’s treats: Penn State coach James Franklin revealed this week that quarterback Trace McSorley’s mother, Andrea, provides motivation for the offensive linemen before each game.

For the second time this season, Brendan Mahon was selected for the nation’s top performance at tackle for the week by Pro Football Focus.

Purdue’s best player: When he’s healthy, probably senior DT Jake Replogle.

“As proud as I am of what the football team accomplished, I am embarassed of what happened next”. Will they be able to hold on this week and keep playoff hopes alive?

As Penn State now is a nationally ranked team, more and more eyes are looking on our university. “It’s his first year starting, and he’s going to get better”.

A tight end in high school, Sorrell was originally recruited by Franklin and his staff to Vanderbilt for the 2014 signing class.

Following the win over Ohio State, linebacker Brandon Bell was adamant in Penn State’s locker room that teammates not view it as a “fluke”.

Despite that, Sorrell struck a positive note with his decision.

Penn State: Barkley. Though it seems like an easy choice, the sophomore’s value rises exponentially in this game.

Penn State’s offense may not have been pretty last Saturday night against a stingy Ohio State defense, but this week could prove to be a different story.
