Penn State Victory Roar!!

I'm so proud of my Penn State Nittany Lions Football Team! They played hard and beat a very good LSU football team today in the Capital One Bowl. I was so glad that Daryll Clark and the other seniors went out in style. I think Daryll has been given way too much of the blame for our lack of success against highly ranked teams. If anyone is to blame it is the Penn State coaching staff for the way they game plan for those tough games. We should be cruising into those games with a swagger in our step and a knockout punch in our pocket. Instead we tip toe in and play "not to lose" and of course that is usually what happens. We save any trickery or gadget plays until we are down by 3 touchdowns in the 4th quarter and the other team knows that we're too desperate to run it up the gut. Don't get me wrong..... I love JoePa and the gang of great coaches we have, but sometimes I think Joe Paterno downplays our talent too much. When the players hear these humble messages all week heading into a big game they start to believe what they hear and they get intimidated rather than the desired humbleness that Joe is looking for.
Now I must wait another 8 months for Penn State to once again return to the field. I am sad that the season is over, but I'm proud that my team fought a good fight and made a good showing for the Big Ten Conference! Let's hear that Penn State Victory Roar!!!
