Penn State obviously has some work to do on special teams, but they shouldn't have been in a position for them to lose it. #plentyofblame

Penn State could use a 12th man, a student to come out of the stands and kick the winning field goal. Couldn't do worse than their starter.

Penn State defense is playing lights out. Penn State offense is playing nobody's home.

@dylanw it's one thing for an Appalachian State or Youngstown State to play an FCS team. Savannah State is the third worst team in FBS.

@dylanw the reason for the charge isn't exclusion. It's to make a service that's responsive to its users sustainable.
