Ridiculous, even by your standards.
The word of the day is facetious......but believe me, Mich St. does not consider UPS their rivals!!

worry about your own team. I think you know more about and post more about PSU than you do your own favorite school. I think they call it envy or something like that...
A St.fan poked fun @ ND's rival & I Was asking a serious question about UPS' rival; since there is not one, I think Iowa is a good nomination!

Let's not start dogpiling on Ball State. That staff is VERY good, that offense is VERY good, and their defense is VERY good. They slaughtered everybody they played. Are they national title contenders? Obviously not. But they played their worst game of the season when it counted the most and they ran into a team that is extremely well coached and very opportunistic, as they have been all season. I knew Turner Gill was for real last year when Buffalo gave Penn State all they could handle in the first half. It wasnt Penn State playing poorly, it was Buffalo playing like they believed they could win. What Gill has done to the mentality of those kids is surreal. They know they are good enough to win championships, and guess what, they just did, over a 12th ranked undefeated team who has a juggernaut offense. This is the absolute worst program in college football 3 years ago. Turner Gill is an old-school coach who teaches life lessons. That has been a program that won 0, 1, or 2 games a season in their whole football history. Paterno is coming back next year, but after that... they need to take Gill into consideration for that job. He is conservative enough and also innovative enough, a very good balance of both. But Penn State idiots won't want him because he's not Tom Bradley. Just because someone "deserves" something doesn't necessarily mean they should get it.
