The Big 10 tries every year to throw Michigan State down PSU’s throats as a rival. I’d love to get back to the old days of Pitt, WVU, Alabama, Notre Dame, etc. on the schedule annually.

If the movie “Twins” starred two Danny DeVitos…

Found it. From Beano.
“Jack Fleming’s house was above the old stadium,” Cook continued. “He told me, when he was a child, Pitt would come out on the field, and he would sit on his mother’s lap. His mother would point down at them. And his mother would say, ‘Son, that’s Pitt. You hate Pitt now. You hate Pitt tomorrow. You hate Pitt until the day you die. After that, you will hate Pitt for eternity.’ “

Really enjoyed Morning Java today! I’m with Josh. I’d be more excited about Pitt and WVU, and I’m a 60 something year old. It’s not just for the youngins!! On another note, I had my sound up all the way, but found it hard to hear you, especially Josh.

I’m 40. Even after all these years, I’m more hyped about the Penn State rivalry restarting than I ever was about the WVU rivalry.

Hugh, you’ll be happy to know we’re covering WVU football, too.

Honestly I am really surprised at both of your lack of insight into what was once one of the BIGGEST rivalries in college football. Every year, before ESPN and the gluttony of NCAA football games televised, ABC would always televise the Pitt/Penn State game on Thanksgiving or the weekend after. It was up there with tOSU/Michigan; UCLA/USC; Alabama/Auburn; Texas/Oklahoma. I think if took a poll throughout Pennsylvania you would find a strong desire to renew it every year. The Pitt/WVU rivalry, while real, actually resulted out of Paterno ending the rivalry.

You two should have a joint bobble head wearing your burgundy getups. Could be a big seller in the merchandise department.

With regards to your PSU rival discussion: It’s pretty funny how Penn St. thinks OSU is their rival. Seemingly every year they have some “Hate Ohio State Week” or something like that before they play each other. OSU really doesn’t care about Penn St., though. Not even close to a rivalry.

Dejan,

Could we please have a free agent frenzy thread ?

Dejan, is there any possibility of covering more penn state football on here? Being a current student it’s frustrating to see the lack of coverage on this side of the state, especially when it is compared to the surplus of coverage for Pitt when it comes to the Trib and Post Gazette. I also completely agree with you that Pitt West Virginia should happen. I grew up a Pitt fan and now go to Penn State but I still have this deep hatred of West Virginia
