- Thread starter vanbasten
- Start date
wanted to follow up with this game. i am at work, so i don't have all my info, but basically it breaks down like this...
was at the minny game last week. with mills at qb, psu had no confidence, just going through the motions. mills couldn't throw, didn't even look like he wanted to be in there. the rest of the offense followed suit. when robinson came in, they already spotted minny 14 points, but he completely changed the game. you could see it in his teammates as well. i thought they just benched mills because it was that bad, but then i saw him on crutches at halftime (knee). regardless, everyone started playing harder, receivers ran better routes, oline worked harder. just new life all around. i expext a week of practice with robinson at qb will have them even sharper.
psu's homecoming is tomorrow as well, and after this game, they only have 2 more games in happy valley. just feel it's a key game for them to get a big ten win, if there's one out there. wins at home so far are against temple and kent state.
penn state is also 8-3 ats after a conference loss. this is the second of back to back road games for wisky, and as horns said above, they have a look ahead to ohio state next week.
wisky does have revenge on their side with a 34-31 loss at home to state last year, but just when you count joepa out and can't see them winning he surprises you. defense will see alot of the same as last week, run, run, run, which they had some trouble with, but i think with the offensive time of possesion being better, they will be more rested and able to handle it better than earlier in the year, it already showed last week as well.
consensus also 2-1 on wisky -
will add more if i find time.

Vanbasten,
I agree with everything you said but I think the real play here is the OVER!! Wisky will pass on this defense, there were a few chances last week for MN but they couldn't cash in and they also never opened the play book b/c they were afraid their QB would loose the game for them and I think Penn St. off. is a lot better without Mills. We all know how chitty the badgers def. is!!
GL!!!
Over 45.5 *3

This is funny...both PSU and over are two of my big leans. Stillneed to do some work though. Not to go all Limbaugh on you guys, but college teams often play much better when the black QB gets in as the starter. Its a fact. GL fellas.

Tough one for a Badger fan as I am. It all sets up for Pn St. The over maybe the big play. Wisky is good for 30 and there D is good for about 24. It will depend if AD is ready. If so they may try to run alittle more. But I dont know why. In all of the Bagers games if the QB can find them. The Badgers receivers just seem to be running around open all over the field. They have 4 good ones. There in lies the problem. Badgers secondary seems to let the other guys do same thing. Right now Badgers do to injuries are getting weaker back there then better.
djv, thanks for the info. the 45-46 looks like a good number for the over.
here's more info to support psu...
psu is 4-0 ats off a conference loss of 10 or more points.

I highly doubt that Coach A will be looking ahead, but his team is so suspect, that I can't tell you to back them. I would tend to agree that PSU is the play.
Well I'll be the Homer Here
To many weapons for a Pst D that will be Overwhelmed. AGAIN it is up to Sorgi, if he has a solid game it is a Win , he must hit the open receivers that will be available due to Pst having to key on running game, I see Evans and Williams having a Big Day.
The Wis D , well that is always a CRAPshoot, but I do not see Psts w/o as being in the class that can take full advantage of the secondary.
