00:03 - All right, we're gonna obviously do tons of games
00:06 tomorrow on a pain-free football Friday on C2C.
00:09 Let me at least get some thoughts from you
00:11 on some of these bigger ones.
00:13 Two days out, Penn State and Ohio State is obviously
00:16 the matchup of the weekend
00:18 with the Lions heading into the shoe.
00:21 Still sitting at four and a half here, Scotty,
00:23 with a 45 and a half total.
00:25 I mean, is this finally the year?
00:27 Now, Penn State's covered a lot against them
00:30 the last few years, but they never beat 'em.
00:33 Is this a year where, frankly, can finally get this done?
00:37 - It's hard to win at the shoe.
00:38 All I know is this, that number's too big for me.
00:42 This is just like Notre Dame, Ohio State,
00:45 and they won that game by three.
00:47 A lot of people think they should've never won the game,
00:50 but they did.
00:51 They got it done and stuck it down Notre Dame's throat
00:55 at the end of that game on the last play of the game.
00:57 Notre Dame had that game won and then blew it.
01:00 This is the same kind of game.
01:01 And I gotta tell you, without a doubt, in my opinion,
01:04 Penn State's better than Notre Dame, okay?
01:07 I think they're a better football team.
01:09 They're undefeated.
01:10 Now, you might say they haven't played anybody.
01:12 Well, they'll play somebody on Saturday.
01:14 I don't think you can give that team four and a half points.
01:17 Now, this is the kind of game I'd be inclined
01:19 to stay away from and sit back and get the popcorn going
01:23 and a beverage or two and watch this puppy
01:26 and not sweat out the 70s.
01:28 In other words, I can't take the stress
01:31 of this big, gigantic game.
01:33 I had Ohio State in that game against Notre Dame
01:36 and it pushed.
01:37 I think this is a three-point game.
01:39 I can't believe it's four and a half.
01:40 They're both six and O.
01:42 They both mean business.
01:44 Franklin loves to cover.
01:46 They're gonna show up and give Ohio State problems.
01:49 Now, look, I think McCourt's every bit as good as Allard.
01:52 I'm not sold on this Penn State quarterback
01:56 that everybody brags about how great he is.
02:00 I mean, this guy throws for 150 yards a week.
02:03 That's it.
02:03 So I'm bored with him.
02:05 But their defense means business
02:07 as much as Ohio State's does.
