In a rather unique development. The Nation's #17 tight end prospect, Willie Lundy, a junior college sophomore out of Xenia, Ohio, is going to visit three different schools next Saturday as Notre Dame, Penn State, and Alabama are all going to be hosting the highly sought after recruit. How exactly he intends to attend all three games is still a mystery.

haha that's hilarious.

I'll be luck if I come out of that stretch .500

That is one intense schedule to end the season. If you win out, there's no doubt in my mind you deserve to be crowned the champion, especially when three of those four games are on the road.

That is intense. Especially your only home game. Go Tide!

I didn't see that w/ him specifically, but I have seen it happened w/ a few other guys. I also haven't seen 3 schools, but I did see it w/ 2. Definitely a glitch.

I saw that earlier as well. Should be fun, but maybe intense is a better word.

I beat the #13 team handily on the road this past week and fell from #5 to #8, but then I saw they were all undefeated teams, including ND, that jumped me so it seemed fair.

Then I saw your schedule and figured that hell, either he's not going to get out of that stretch alive and I'll jump him if I keep winning or he's deserves to be #1 w/ those wins under his belt.

Penn State takes down Illinois on the road 44-17

Penn State racked up over 600 yards in offense as Silas Redd came to play again producing his best game of an ever improving season. Piled up 264 yards rushing and 2 TDs...almost surpassing 200 yards in the first half.

Paul Jones threw for over 250 yards in an efficient effort. He could've thrown for more, but there was no reason to w/ Silas having the day he was. With it becoming very likely that a 5* freshman is about to sign w/ Penn State, a RB controversy might be brewing as it will be tough to take Redd out of the starting lineup if he continues to improve.

In an unlucky break, All-Everything WR Ken Smith was injured and will be out 4 weeks, which should dash any hopes of a Heisman trophy. Fellow badass Adam Utley should pad his stats in the mean time as he once again had a good day going over 130 yards.

The Penn State defense pressured the Illini QB all day, pressuring him more than 10 times and getting 5 sacks...including 3 from high touted redshirt freshman DT Heath Hill.

I think it'd be cool if when we do the Heisman and Defense awards if the coach of the player(s) nominated could write a little paragraph or something about why his player should win. You wouldn't have to do it obviously if you didn't want too, but it's kinda like in real life when coaches advertise their players for awards all the time.

We advanced yesterday, lol.

We did? I must be going crazy. I think I'm confusing a thing or two. That isn't all that surprising I guess.

I hope so. He's from just outside my hometown, which isn't all that big, so its pretty much my hometown. Too bad he didn't end up playing for the good guys, but I'm still a fan. I know his baby's mama from back in the day too.

Hey fellas. I'm goin out of town for the weekend and will be back on Sunday. I hope everybody enjoys the shit out of their Saturdays murdering communizers and watching real college football. Should be back early afternoon Sunday and I will handle my game then.

Damn guys, we advanced last night and we watched the football game til midnight. He had to be at work at 7 a.m, and was leaving for the lake after. The game will be played Sunday. Let's not get all flustered. There's 7 more months until NCAA 12 comes out.
