The Lions' Pride

I love beating Iowa.

Sean, how can you not put Kyle Carter's reception on 4th down as the best catch? It was around the DB's head and then got YAC on top of it.

I feel like you always pick the other team for best catch. Come on, man.

MOST TELLING STATISTIC - 504-191

"Nothing technical about this analysis, Penn State put a pounding on the Hawkeyes on both sides of the football, putting up 504 yards of total offense while only allowing 191. The Hawkeyes were unable to get going on the ground, gaining just 21 yards on 23 carries."

This is amazing. I don't care how many players they were missing on offense this stat is just crazy. Escpecially since it was on the road at a very hostile environment! Just mind blowing.

Because it was down as the play of the game.

What a beating

Btw, an absolutely amazing game. Completely dominated them. Time to shift focus on #OSUHateWeek.. Will be a HUGEE game, especially with the WhiteHouse, and 100's of recruits at the game. Cant waitt..!! WE ARE....!!

Playing Iowa is always a game I look forward to. The team is nearly identical to Penn State in everything these teams do on the field. They play hard, hit hard and play a balanced attack on offense. The coaching is very good on both sides of the ball and for the most part--it is a chess game on the grid iron. Playing in Iowa is always exciting as the fans are educated and passionate ... and winning in Iowa City is VERY difficult for any team--especially the Nittany Lions. I was more concerned about this game going into the season than even playing Ohio State in State College (next week). With that said, last night's win was a huge step for the Nittany Lions in many levels! It was huge for confidence both offensively and defensively--AND for the coaching staff. I'm finally believing in Ted Roof. He's not pushing schemes for "his" defense that aren't overboard when it comes to elaborate and sometimes overboard on aggressiveness! The first two games of the season, Roof had way too much on the board for the defense, many times putting defenders well out of position--allowing the opposing offense to take full advantage for many times--big plays. What else does this mean for the Nittany Lions ... RECRUITING. Yes, the threat of not playing in bowl games for these next four years are a deterrent, but you can't help but think that some of the recruits who have ran for the hills--to other teams, may be thinking twice about their "de-commitment" ....... IF you're a quarterback, you HAVE to be thinking hard about playing for Bill O'Brien at Penn State. He has taken an average quarterback and offense and made him/offense not only better--but VERY GOOD--VERY FORMIDABLE! This team is definitely rising to each challenge and not only accomplishing their goals with simply winning, but they're doing it week by week with more and more confidence--and doing it with swagger and strength. Penn State is 5-2 and have a HUGE game with Ohio State next Saturday. This is a winnable game for the Nittany Lions, but let's not lose focus of the fact that this is Ohio State--forget the previous 7/8 games with both teams--records are meaningless for this game! WHITEOUT for what is expected to be one of the largest crowds to attend a game since the Penn State-Nebraska game of close to 111k back in 2002. Let's just hope that the turnout is the same as it was in 2002--a win--a big win! Here's to a good game and an injury-free game for both sides of the ball! WE ARE!

Not sure what was worse, that holding call or the PI against Morris.

That holding call was a perfect block.

Think about how our friends in Morgantown are wishing they had some of that D!!

I ROFLMAO the first time I read this in the In-game thread (?)

FARMAGEDDON! indeed +1
