Once again we have standing before us an opportunity to get noticed as a major player in the college football world. Respect is definitely something that is earned and although I believe we have earned a very modest amount of respect in the last few years, I still believe that we have a long distance to travel. Beating a traditional football power from one of the "power" conferences on their home turf is one of the jobs that must be accomplished.
Enough with the preaching, let's look at the game.
Not unlike us, Penn State did not seem to be tested in their first couple of games of the season. They probably played down to the competition a little bit as well kind of like what we experienced early on in the game against FIU. After reading more than a few short reviews of our previous contest, I am not alone in thinking that the line play on both sides of the ball has to keep improving for us to have a chance to leave Happy Valley with a win in our back pocket. This will be our first true test as a football team this young season and honestly it could not come at a better time with South Carolina coming to our house in two weeks. Not that I am looking past our current opponent its just that playing a couple of teams that are down right now does not get us ready to play one of the better teams in the SEC. Penn State will definitely give us a great game and I know the players are eagerly looking forward to today's game.
Go Knights! Charge On!
