Just finished watching the Penn State-Iowa game at the bar tonight and boy am I depressed at our defense. The only reason why we won was because Iowa has a worse defense (which is saying quite a lot) than ours. There weren’t even enough fans in the stands tonight to fill an AA meeting. But a wins a win. More on this to come tomorrow. I’ve been quite preoccupied lately and will get back to normal blogging in the following days.
