Because its MVP, not Player of the Year
-
Locals here are pissed with Gene Smith (OSU AD). This season is a wash, so most fans wanted Smith to self-impose a bowl ban for this season (hoping it might lessen the NCAA punishment). But Smith is being stubborn and saying they'll accept any bowl bid they get, which means that if there IS a ban from the NCAA, it's going to a) not punish the idiot players who caused the problem to begin with and b) hurt the team next year when they're guaranteed to have a better season. So stupid

Didn't he hit like .330 for the Pirates? -
This rumor seems to be contained to message board speculation, but I can't say I'd be against it
-
local radio is pushing hard for the Indians to sign Pena

166 vs. 171 in OPS+ Yes, Kemp was a better defender. I'm not saying Braun was the obvious winner, but let's not pretend that he didn't deserve consideration
-
He wasn't and he didn't. .324/.399/.586/.986 .332/.397/.597/.994 Are we really splitting hairs over a couple of points of OBP or OPS? They were both great this year

CBJ wins back to back games for first time since 02/22/11
-
2 voters for each team, rotates every year. So only NL team reps can vote on NL awards? Are these players or front office types?
-
Who are the 32 people who get to vote on these awards?
-
Yet you took my hyperbolic statement as fact

Hard to believe any coach would take that job prior to the NCAA ruling anything. There can't be any way in hell Meyer takes that job. Just cannot be. Why not? It's still a major program with relatively easy recruiting. You don't think Braxton Miller would blossom in a Meyer offense? If the NCAA sanctions aren't bad, it's a pretty good fit for Urban

Apparently he knew about Sandusky's wrong doings years ago. Why EhDubya didn't go to the police we'll never know. The FBI will probably be knocking on his door any day now

But still not excited, because Wisky will win by 70, right? PSU's defense is top 10 in the nation in most categories, so giving up 70 to Wiscy seems a bit unlikely. I agree! http://northsidebaseball.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=44&t=59999&start=225 Good to see you've finally gotten it. Yes, because back on October 1st, you were positive that a) Wisconsin would come back to earth and b) that Penn State's defense would be this good. Anything else for us, Nostradamus?

I went there and I'm not even a Northwestern fan
-
if you told me back in August that Penn State would be playing for a berth in the B1G title game on the final day of the season, I would've been thrilled.

If the extra one-game wildcard round had been used the past 10 seasons: 2011: TB (91-71) vs. BOS (90-72) STL (90-72) vs. ATL (89-73) 2010: NYY (95-67) vs. BOS (89-73) ATL (91-71) vs. SD (90-72) 2009: BOS (95-67) vs. TEX (87-75) COL (92-70) vs. SF (88-74) 2008: BOS (95-67) vs. NYY (89-73) MIL (90-72) vs. NYM (89-73) 2007: NYY (94-68) vs. DET (88-74) COL (89-73) vs. SD (89-73) 2006: DET (95-67) vs. CHW (90-72) LAD (88-74) vs. PHI (85-77) 2005: BOS (95-67) vs. CLE (93-69) HOU (89-73) vs. PHI (88-74) 2004: BOS (98-64) vs. OAK (91-71) HOU (92-70) vs. SF (90-72) 2003: BOS (95-67) vs. SEA (93-68) FLA (91-71) vs. HOU (87-75) 2002: LAA (99-63) vs. BOS (93-69) SF (95-66) vs. LAD (92-70) The majority of those matchups would be really good (outside of some duds like the 2006 NL)

If there had been a 1 game wildcard round last year, the "worst" team in the field would have had 89 wins. This isn't going to create situations like the other sports where sub .500 teams make the playoffs
-
By the time the bowls come around, they'll be able to spin it as "look at these gutsy kids trying to win in the face of adversity". Attendance won't be an issue
-
PSU has a JV high school team this year
-
First round of the playoffs are in campus stadiums (higher seed gets homefield) TA-DA!
-
just reading the tweets from the local ESPN Radio guys who are vehemently denying this report

McQueary: I totally called the police after seeing the shower rape State College and University Park Police: Yeah, no
