1) Penn State's best receiver is a senior
2) Four of five of the starting OL are seniors
3) The starting TE is a senior
4) 3 of 4 of the starting DL are seniors
5) 4 of 4 of the starting secondary are seniors

Penn State will be lucky if they go 8-4 this year before heading to a whatever bowl, where they will lose. Do people realize the hole they are in? That is 13 out of 22 starters that are graduating. If you add Joe Suhey, that is 14 of 22.

How many years in a row have we heard about rebuilding? The offensive line has been "rebuilding" since about 1981. Keep sending in those donations checks.

Thier real problem is the QB this year. They have not gotten top 25 players the last 6 years. Penn State still does ok on thier classes, but not good enought to compete with the big boys. The young kids today want something new, cool, and hip. Penn State does not offer that.

If they just let Bolden and Bolden alone take control of that offense, and use him in run/pass situations like they did Robinson and Clark, they could win 9 regular season games this year and have a shot at #10 in a bowl. But for whatever reason Joe loves McGloin.

Yep such is life as a Penn State fan these days. Each year fans get excited about the future then the future comes and it's the same old stuff. Im sure people have said this will be the year 2 years ago a time or two. It won't happen or come close under the current regime

"Wait until 2-3 years from now when Casey is a Senior That will be Joe's last Championship"
"Wait until 2-3 years from now when Mills is a Senior That will be Joe's last Championship"
"Wait until 3 years from now when Morelli is a Senior. That will be Joe's last Championship"

Because their qb's started throwing the football like a shotput this year without a spiral?

I didnt give up on the season yet. They have a good chance at being 8-1 going into those brutal last 3 games.

Hey. One year PSU got SLAUGHTERED by Alabama half way thru the season, and STILL won the National Championship. Can you imagine that?
