I think Penn State really needs this win more than Ohio State. JoePa in the BCS championship? That would be epic. I must admit, as a Nittany Lion fan, I am a little worried about this one, but I hardly think last weekend was a decent show of PSU’s strength. Clark kept his cool and threw a good game, and the offense got cheated a few times by the refs.
The problem was the defense; I have no clue what they were doing most of the game (especially that first half) but if they get their act together, they have a good shot of winning the game. And, after all, they’ve got Lydell Sargeant, who made, like, five picks against Wisconsin two weeks ago!
My prediction: PSU 27, OSU 24

Obviously, OSU is good, they showed some things last week I just hadn’t seen…Beanie Wells is a beast., that’s completely clear, now. Laurinitis finds the ball on every play. For me, the biggest question mark was pryor, but with the run threat and Pryor’s capabilities outside the pocket defenses have to play honest which opens up the field….
However, I do think that PSU’s defense has more in the tank than we know….It’s just a question of controlling the line, which will be tough.
The niitany lions will have to make big plays on offense and defense to keep this thing close, because if the bucks are as consistently solid as they appeared last week…tressel win find a way to finish the game.

I would really like to see Penn State win this game, because I think seeing JoePa make a run at a national title would be awesome — and because everyone is sick of Ohio State anyway — but I don’t think the Nittany Lions go into Columbus and win at night. In Happy Valley, absolutely. But Terrelle Pryor and Beanie Wells and Adonis Tressel will be too much for JoePa and the Lions at home.
