This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.
Important notes on articles:
- Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
- Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
- If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

Predictions for Michigan at Penn State this Saturday? by mkovac
I think that Harbaugh will try to go deep early. If he gets picked off, then it will be a long night for the Skunks and Penn State could beat Michigan by at least 21 points.
My prediction is Penn State 35 - Michigan 17.
It's crazy that this is a 7:30 PM kickoff, Eastern Time. No game east of the Mississippi should have a kickoff that late after the first week in October, in my opinion. Those who attend the game will probably not get out onto the main highway until close to Midnight and the only option they have it to head home or to Motel 6.
The weather, (link) shows 47 degrees and partly cloudy in State College at kickoff, with negligible wind. So, weather for the players should be invigorating, but not so cold that the ball will feel like a shotput.
