Leaving Wednesday to go to Penn State to watch App St play. Me and 4 friends driving up to State College, renting an RV up there. Going to stop and tour Gettysburg on Thursday and see some sites on the trip back. We will have a good time, regardless of the outcome. LET'S GO MOUNTAINEERS!!!

Go get'em! One of the few BIG venues I haven't been to. They always do those 'whiteouts' when Ohio State plays there and I don't have any interest in sitting through that crap.

Hey Stumpy , tell us of your experience at Happy Valley ( I think the Apps cover the + 23.5 )
Also..Gettysburg. Tell us if your heartbeat increased looking over the fields of Pickett's charge from Cemetery Ridge where 7,500 Virginians went down at the approximate rate of 2.5 per second !
..or from Little Round Top where 300 boys from Maine chased 4-5 thousand Alabamians off the hill with an , out of ammo, bayonet charge that saved the United States Of America.

A very good weekend, but an almost perfect weekend. Gettysburg was very moving and spent the whole day there. Could have spent another. I suggest to everyone, it should be visited. And as for the game, Apps should have won. Had the chances to do it in regulation. A bounce here, a tackle there, and another big upset. But had a good time at the game and the Penn State fans we met were nice and complimentary.

I know there was very little time left but I was screaming to run one more down and try to get a few more yards before attempting that FG at the end of regulation. Maybe a quick 10 yard sideline throw. Eerily similar to the end of the Tennessee game a couple years ago. I didn't like their chances in OT.

Although somewhat of a PSU fan I was really hoping for that one play that would give ASU the win. Dramatic game. I still don't like the Arena League field overtime. Letting ties stand most accurately reflects what happens in 60 minutes of FB , imo....although I guess the Dr. Pepper Invitational semi-finals would need some kind of tiebreaker system.
Agree, Gettysburg requires at least 2-3 days.
