My bold prediction: Milton is going to have a huge day, with 2 long TDs on double moves. TTU plays super aggressive pass defense, constantly trying to jump routes. Purdy will have to be careful, but there are going to be a lot of opportunities down field if the OL can stop the rush.

Bruns was saying that before long, the young and exciting wideouts are going to have huge games, because teams are going to be concentrating on stopping the established receivers--and Brock will have to look for new options. I'd assuming that's the firm of Scates, Shaw and Wilson, LLP.

I really feel like our defense compared to Tech's defense will be the difference in this game.... I hope anyway.

ISU's Total Defense ranking- 28th
TT's Total Defense ranking- 98th

ISU's Total Offense ranking- 24th
TT's Total Offense ranking- 15th

So both offenses are somewhat comparable, but ISU's defense is far superior (based on the numbers anyway).

Any news if some of our banged up guys on D are playing today?

Penn State actually got a graduate--Lara from Good Morning America with the sorority Yell like Hell voice-- to do College Game Day. We got a hung over Eric Church with the ingratitude and short-sightedness to get a short-term "win" to pick against us. We are....

ISU's offense may actually be better than TTU's. TTU has only played 3 teams that try to play defense, and they averaged 15 points in 2 of those games. They only had 20 in regulation at Baylor.

My biggest fear for today is the refs giving Tech all the calls to make up for last weekend.

"...after further review....the upper part of the fibula landed in-bounds prior to the rest of the bone, the tibia, and the rest of the players body landing out of bounds. touchdown Texas Tech."
