Plow Horses - The Case Against Penn State...And he was right, as Clayborne and Heyward can attest.
-
What to Do With Terrelle the Terrible...CBS front page pointed 10k visitors to TRE to read why TP should be used like Vince Young.
-
Fandom in the Big Ten Conference..."The morning of the Iowa game we rented a generator, and drove through the snowy streets (just a dusting) of Minneapolis, and parked and began drinking bloody-marys immediately."
-
The Rivalry Travels: Tostitos Fiesta Bowl (Phoenix, AZ) - I Don't Know Who Is The Best Team In the Country, But It Ain't Texas...Peter Bean, he of Burnt Orange Nation, makes an appearance in the Comment section to back his Longhorns.
-
Do SEC Fans Love Football More Than Big 10 Fans?...I forget whether it was MGo or 11 Warriors that called the title a "shameless plug for hits"...and then linked to us. So it worked, apparently. Good discussion in the comments though.
-
The Gauntlet Has Been Thrown - and It Smells Delicious...Hilary leaves a picture of a giant rack of ribs on the site for two days...that's good enough for me.
-
Girl You Wanna Come To My Rotel: Analyzing the Big Ten Network's Childish Shows and Promo's...The article that inspired an email from BTN.
-
Beers of the Big 10...I had my first Yuengling at the UM-OSU game this year and it was solid. Kudos to all you PA drinkers/beer makers.
-
A Lament: You'll Be Coming Down...Heartbroken Iowa reaction to the Northwestern loss. Lots of empty feelings, glassy eyed stares, etc.
-
On Wisconsin, Happy Valley, and Beautiful Women..."Now correct me if I'm wrong, but I wasn't aware that PSU was a bastion for hotties. Obviously the Midwest schools most famous for its scorchingly hot co-eds are Miami (OH), Wisconsin, Ohio State, and probably Michigan State. But maybe this list should include Penn State?"
-
You Must Be California Dreamin' If You Think Greg Jones Deserves Preseason Defensive Player of the Year...The eleventh spot is reserved for my own idiocy. Look, my brain was fried from the bar exam and my head was heavy from the damn Los Angeles smog. Let's just pretend this never happened, huh?

Re: 'And he was right'
I’m not sure ‘but, I see the Lions losing at least four of their conference games’ qualifies
"For me the game wasn’t grounded in reality. It was about the uniform you put on that turned you into a warrior. It was about the mythology of the battle, the victory, the defeat, the struggle." - Mike Reid, PSU '69
I addressed that
here. As was the case so often for my high school science projects, I had the right idea, but I over-estimated the net effect.
