Penn State Uniform Reveal: A Good Matchup?
I was hoping for all yellow. I'm worried our white jerseys will blend in with the crowd and make it hard to find our receivers down field. But, by same token, maybe the db's will have a hard time finding our receivers too!

I love it. A little "Raideresque"like our winning the B1G championship. Plus, it's very threatening, 'the curse of the mummy' and all that. Mummy Duck shoes, wraps, etc. In a 'white out' no less. I think this is brilliant. Everyone wear GREEN. GO Ducks. Kill the Lion!

Penn State Uniform Reveal: A Good Matchup?
Section 4, Article 5, Paragraph 3 of the NCAA Football Rule Book, the NCAA prohibits the home team from wearing "away" whites at home. 2. The visiting team shall wear white jerseys; however, the home team may wear white jerseys if the teams have agreed in writing before the season 3. If the home team wears colored jerseys, the visiting team may also wear colored jerseys, if and only if the following two conditions have been satisfied: The home team has agreed in writing prior to the game; and The conference of the home team certifies that the jersey of the visiting team is of a contrasting color Coach Franklin in 2019: "First of all, part of the White Out is the contrast. It helps us if everybody else is in white, it makes our players stand out on the field for our quarterback and those types of things. That's the first thing," Franklin said.. "The other thing is, we can't wear white at home. There's NCAA rules. We can't show up and wear whatever we want to wear. We would have to get permission from the opposing team to allow us (to) wear white, and I would never do that for anybody else, so we haven't even kind of gone that route." When Penn St hosted SMU in the opening round CFP game, SMU wore all white - jersey, pants, helmet. It was a daylight game. It was PSU's second white-out game of the 2024 season.

Penn State Uniform Reveal: A Good Matchup?
Tried to like these, but man, the uniforms seem like a whiff this time around. What's up with the mummy theme? Are mummies a big thing with young people? Brings back bad memories of the Mandrake fail. Seems like more of a distraction than added value. Disappointing for the biggest football event of the year. Oh well, if we can pull out a W I'm sure I will love them. And maybe they'll feed into DL's theme of "Play the game, not the occasion." Go Ducks!

I was hoping for the all white Stormtrooper look. Like the ones we blew the doors off the Trojans with. A close second would have been the all yellow like we beat Michigan State with. Oh well, a guy can dream! Go Ducks, tame the Lions!

What about all-Yellow? Or… A GREEN dominant uniform to make us stand out, while being true to our colors? (Green Helmet, green pants and shoes, with white jersey and green accents?) It is quite possible…

Oregon v. Penn State: The Wrong Team Favored?
This is not going to be a popular opinion, but Penn State lost that championship game more than Oregon won it. Oregon had no answer for their running attack in that game. They ran for 297 yards and were averaging almost 9 yards per carry. I still have no idea why they decided to throw the ball 40 times. Not only that, a lot of those were low percentage throws on mid to long range shots and they put the ball at risk, which resulted in 2 picks and a 50% completion percentage. If they take some of those high risk throws back and run the ball or turn them into shorter, higher completion percentage throws, I think Penn State wins that game. I hope Oregon has found an answer for that run game. Based on what I have seen so far this year, I am not optimistic. It will be interesting to see if Penn State learns from that last game and just pounds it down Oregon’s throat and throws it more like 15-20 times. If so, Oregon might be in trouble.

They don’t want to go all white. It would blend into the crowd from the field level. Penn State fans did a white-out for the B1G Championship Game. They took up roughly 75% of Lucas Oil Stadium. Black contrasted well during that game.

On another thread this was the combo I predicted. So called it! But also... What times will the lights go out for the glow in the dark go into effect? Isn't that when Penn State scores? That doesn't feel like a smart move.

Isn't this the same as at Wisconsin last year? Won't this kind of blend in with the 'Lions navy blue jersey?

Our Beloved Ducks: Not Quite Ready for 'Natty Time?
That's true however they also had 275 passing yards and 17 first downs. Against us 4 of their 8 first downs were on their one scoring drive. So that leaves 4 first downs the entire rest of the game.

Please do not get my hopes up.

Civil War Agreement?
Has this actually been agreed to starting in 2027? I have found lots of references to continuing with Beavis, but nothing indicating it’s actually been agreed to. Anyone know?

Oregon v. Penn State: The Wrong Team Favored?
I like our DUCKS in this matchup. We can throw and run in a balanced way. Penn State will have a good running game but what about passing? Drew Aller IMHO is prone to making mistakes. He should have gotten down at Autzen and given them a chance for a field goal. Most importantly, he has three new wide receivers and his go to receiver from last year was tight end Tyler Warren who is now gone. DUCKS not only cover but win this game.

Oh now...she explained that she was, "just a housekeeper." "I marry them, divorce them, and keep the house!"
