Random Posting for Penn State 11/22/14

Here are 9 Nittany Nuggets from today's game:

1.)  Hey Illinois ... I used to live in your state!  Hey Penn State ... I used to live in *your* state!  [Note to self ... I should probably check to see if anyone plays college football here in Florida, where I live now.]
2.)  Speaking of states and football, how many times were the announcermen going to knock the lack of fan support there in Champaign?  Although it did make me go look on the interwebs, where I found the image accompanying today's post, which holds true to the observed apathy.
3.)  There sure was a lot of 3-and-outs today ... until when there suddenly wasn't.
4.)  Without getting sued by an Auggie, can I just say that the WIND seemed like the 12th man today.
5.)  Dude ... Dudek.  You were the bane of our existence.  And get a haircut.
6.)  Regardless of the outcome of today's game, there were the cute puppies featuring the Illini service dogs in a spot coming back from one of the breaks to serve as a distraction.
7.)  Trickeration, huh?  We could have used some more of that today.
8.)  Oh announcermen ... why oh why did you have to do your announcer jinx during that play?
9.)  Can't end a Penn State post without an ATTA BOY FICKEN, now can I?  Therefore ... ATTA BOY FICKEN!

In closing, thanks (?) to UnderArmour, for providing the creepy roided up Armour Claus image in that advertisement to scare us off the naughty list.
