Which Big 10 Game Will Penn State Most LIkely Lose This Football Season?
Much of the actual 2010 college football season for Penn State is focused on the huge out of conference match-up with Alabama. Penn State versus Alabama tickets will be among the hardest to get in college football. However if it is the Big 10 title, BCS Game, and Rose Bowl you are searching for as a Penn State enthusiast, your consideration should be placed more on the actual Big 10 part of the schedule.
As usual, the actual Penn State football schedule for 2010 has been dissected in every way possible by college football analysts and media members, and you will find plenty of views on how the actual Nittany Lions will do this season. In general, Joe Paterno has a lot of key players to replace and positions to fill, however he will need to have a solid squad again in 2010. Next to the monumental game with Alabama on September 11, the actual out of conference schedule is a breeze with home games against Youngstown State, Kent State, and Temple (though Temple was a bowl team this past year and could give the Lions a game).
Of more interest and debate is actually how this particular edition of the Penn State team is going to do in the Big 10. Most have Ohio State as the favorite in the conference, however this is absolutely no runaway competition because Penn State, Michigan State, and Wisconsin all have great clubs in 2010. Teams like Iowa and Michigan will also likely have something to say about the actual race too. And all of those clubs (save Wisconsin, that are not on the schedule), will be tough match-ups for Penn State.
But which game is the most dangerous on the docket for the Nittany Lions? There’s no wrong or right response to this particular questions, and you can make a disagreement for several games. Certainly, going back to Iowa on October 2 for a night game will not be easy. Remember, this is where PSU’s undefeated season had been de-railed 24 months ago in a similar night time environment. The actual Hawkeyes play Penn State tough and this will be the first Big Ten game for a youthful Penn State team. Penn State vs Iowa tickets will be the first tough set of Penn State football tickets in the Big 10 in 2010.
Certainly, the season finally against Michigan State, even though it is a home game, is not an easy game. Michigan State is a nightmare for Penn State for several years, and is a team that just seems to have Jo Pa’s number. When the Lions head into this particular final game with a lot on the line, it will likely be good to be playing at home, however Lions fans I’m sure might gladly end up being playing any other Big Ten foe.
Penn State could very easily lose several of their own other Big 10 games, including games with Illinois, from Minnesota, at Michigan, or at home against Northwestern. Presently there really are not any ‘gimmes’ on the schedule, though I would put the game against Indiana at FedEx field outside Washington DC almost in that class. Indiana will be the Big 10 basement dweller and that will be a virtual home game for Penn State.
In my opinion the actual toughest game for Penn State in 2010 may certainly be the one from the favorites, Ohio State on November 13 in Columbus. This will probably be the actual premier game of the Big 10 season and Penn State vs Ohio State tickets will be extremely sought. Penn State generally plays OSU well, however this will be the greatest team they play, and actively playing them on the road will not be easy.
Irrespective, football season is getting close and 2010 should be an excellent year in the Big 10 for Penn State.
