The Official 'Bama v's PSU Thread

[Red Elephant101]

My Prediction is: Alabama 13-3-7-10 (33) PSU 3-3-7-7 (20).......

I do know that Alabama cannot substitute Olinemen like they did on Saturday and get away with it against a quality Joe Pa coached team, and we must settle on one QB.

I expect a solid hard fought game of inches and for it to live up to all the hype placed upon the match.

RTR!!!

Should be a good game, but Bama holds on for the win.

 

[HighTide]

33-20 I think is too high of a score for this.

33-20 I think is too high of a score for this.

More like 24-21

 

[Red Elephant101]

It's September Gent's not November, that's why I gave it an extra dose of flair and points.

Hot and spicey

More like 24-21

Still to high I think. I'm a PSU fan, but I'm feeling 17-7 Bama. Our QBs did not look much improved yesterday and OLine looks terrible.

will joe pa be seeking out the bear after the game or just nodding off

For those of us who go back a few decades, Penn St/Alabama have provided some classics. We were fortunate enough to see them live and appreciate them even more when we see replays. In my world Joe Paterno is the original 'Big Game' coach, particularly of the active. I learned early not to bet against him.

Wrong as I was, I picked Penn St for an Alabama upset last year. I did it because Paterno puts together championship challenging teams every now and then. He's due.
Saban is a real good coach. 'Legend vs Legend To Be'.

Can't wait for this game.

31-9 Bama.

 

[maddogmark25]

Neither team looked like worldbeaters offensively against cupcakes, and both teams look like they have some QB issues

Im thinking something like 17-13, with the winner being whosever running game gets going more, and if PSU's special teams dont emphasize the word special like they did on saturday, because both teams defenses and running games are their strength

 

[WoodyHayes1951]

Bama wins 27-13

PSU wins 27-24.

No reason, just to go against the flow. Bama's a bit overrated.

I can see where someone might think we are a bit overrated, but I feel like playing all the different people that we let play and having 2 new QB's in their first games, and turing the ball over 4 times like we did, we had a pretty good first game. We got the blowout victory with all of that, which is more than I can say for some teams(auburn). I know it was Kent st., but I think a team like that is nothing more than a good scrimmage before our real test.

 

[BoiseStateFan27]

this game could be an ugly one

Bama's QBs went for 1 TD and 4 picks and that was against Kent State, Penn State's defense is much better

meanwhile Penn State has unsolved issues at QB as well.

Both teams show they are a mess but Bama wins because they have better running backs.

 

[mustangwatkins]

Bama 33-19 Penn

For no reason other than our D will cause lots of turnovers, but our Young QB's still learning when NOT to throw. I expect several turnovers by both teams, but lots of FG's as well in this game. In the end BAMA 33 w/7-3-7-3-3-7-3 and Pen 19 w/3-7-3-3-3

Roll Tide Roll !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[JTEGGER]

I'm thinking BAMA wins 20-10

 

[Red_Alert]

Replay of classic 1985 Alabama @ Penn St game will be on BTN at 3:30pm central.

 

[BamaInHoustonRTR]

Bama 24-10. And everyone that thought Bama looked like a mess will be surprised how much better we look when we start a QB and keep our Olineman all at the same position.
