First of all, I’m going to say this once and once only. If you are going to be at the game this Saturday, WEAR WHITE!

The students got it down with a simple declaration on the jumbotron. For every vice Penn State alumni consistently finds with current Penn State students (tailgate behavior, use of profanities, not filling up the student section at ungodly noon kickoff times for teams people didn’t even know existed before they played Penn State, you get the drift), there are plenty of gray-hairs that still find it necessary to don their blue. Get with the program, even when there isn’t a declared whiteout, it is obvious that white has become the new rage in Happy Valley. The last 3 home games are evident of that. Look around Beaver Stadium and you’ll see a massive block of white (student section) and a mass of white littered with little dots of blue. It’s time to get with the program people.

And on a side note, boy is Illinois walking into a buzz saw this weekend. They’ve played at Penn State 2 years ago, lost. But this year they are playing a night game in the White House. Boy will they be in for a rude awaking. For all the Illini fans that believe their rightful place is the miracle season of 2007, its time to wake up and maintain their rightful place at the bottom of the Big Ten. This weekend will be proof of that.
