Most every team that goes to the championship plays a mediocre team that plays them tough. I don't think Penn State is that good.
For one they went 8-4 and lost all 4 games against Top 25 teams. They barely beat an underachieving Michigan State team 17-13. Not to mention their only brightspot might be their defense which is pretty tough and finished 16th in the country in Total Defense. Their offense is 55th in Total Offense, and 58th in Passing offense. So we should be able to shut down Morelli farely well.
The fact of the matter is, this is a revenge game for us. They spanked us last time we played and I know Fulmer remembers it because he was an assistant coach.
Ut wins big....
