Random Posting for Penn State 11/26/16

Here are 9 Nittany Nuggets from tonight's game:

1.)  Well there you go.  Looks who gets a bowl game AND a bonus game next week.

2.)  So if we're "the Cinderella" story, does that make FRANKLIN our fairy godmother?
3.)  True to form, we are indeed a second half kind of team.
4.)  The most challenging part of the day was at the beginning when I had to figure out which game to watch -- the end of OState or the start of PState!?
5.)  That Mark Dantonio guy's a bit of a grumpy gus, no?
6.)  In his defense, it did seem a little cold there today (not that I remember what that feels like or anything living here in Florida).
7.)  Hey MState player TERRY -- to paraphrase Tom Hanks, "there is no crying in college football"!  (And sorry to hear about your concussion.)
8.)  Although I usually knock some of the creepy things the announcerpeople say, I've got to say that I agree with their declaration that SAQUON can "accelerate and elevate", just before he jumped over the line to score the TD, and just after which they cut away to the gloomy gus MState coach mouthing that it was "bullsh!t".  Now just tell me that ankle of his will heal in time.
9.)  I don't care what anyone else says.  *My* "player" of the week is going to have to be Coach FRANKLIN ... for his helming of a great season (that's not quite over yet)!

In closing, thanks to all the seniors for your service to the team ... and dare I say it ... could it be NINE in a row next week (and if it is, then what does that to the playoff selection committee conversations) ...
