Despite my username, I went to Penn State and am a Penn State fan. Just graduated actually.

Excited to follow - sad this won't include my boy McG!

Your TE's are going to dominate.

Haha, yeah I had a few teams narrowed down but went with my heart and Penn State. I'm hoping, love the youth they have, along with the older classmen to start, so hopefully some early success with them to build for the next few years.

Awesome man, and thanks for the follow. Yeah McG was always fun to watch, and I do love my TE's and like using them quite a bit so could be an impact position for this team.

Playing at MetLife Staidum in East Rutherford, NJ is a B1G vs. ACC showdown. The Penn State Nittany Lions will be battling one of the new ACC teams in the Syracus Orange. Coming into the season, Penn State is very young with true freshman Christian Hackenberg making his first career start. After a successful first season under Bill O'Brien, Penn State is looking to have a huge statement win in week one of the 2013-2014 campaign. With the NCAA lifting the bowl/conference championship ban on Penn State, the players have something to play towards, and hope to make huge strides against the Orange. Herbstreit's Selection: Penn State Nittany Lions

Alright, I'm done posting for the night haha. Looking at hopefully playing game one (maybe game two as well) tomorrow at some point so look for more updates soon.

PENN STATE NITTANY LIONS (0-0, 0-0 BIG) vs. SYRACUSE ORANGE (0-0, 0-0 ACC)
MetLife Stadium, East Rutherford, NJ -- August 31st, 2013 -- 12:00 PM EST!
SLOPPY GAME FOR BOTH, PENN STATE ESCAPES WITH NARROW VICTORY!
Most say that it doesn't matter how you win as long as you win, and after this opening week. Bill O'Brien now knows how true that is. Both teams were clicking on all cylinders when the game started, both scoring on their opening drive of the game. However, Syracuse lost their starting QB, Drew Allen on their second offensive play of the game. Terrel Hunt came in and started on fire, leading the Orange down the field and tying the game at 7 once coming in. However both teams had turnover struggles this entire contest with 7 turnovers between the two teams.

It started in the 2nd quarter when Syracuse RB Jerome Smith fumbled the football. However the call was reversed and Syracuse drove down the field, only to throw a INT in the endzone. On the very next play, Freshman QB Christian Hackenberg threw his first of three INT's to give the Orange the ball right back which lead to the Orange taking the lead. All day, Terrel Hunt find open man after open man, having a great game by throwing for 400 yards, however 4 costly INT's, and struggling on 3rd down, could have been some of the reasons the Orange couldn't walk away MetLife Stadium with a victory.

In his very first start, Christian Hackenberg had a lot of good moments, and bad moments. From the 3 INT's to throwing an 82 yard strike to a wide-open Allen Robinson to equal the score at 14 in the 2nd quarter after throwing an INT (his first) on the pass before that. Also leading the Lions down the field down 24-21 in the 4th quarter with help of a strong final frame by RB Zach Zwinak (who finished with 101 yards on 24 carries). Hackenberg ended the day throwing for 293 yards, 3 TD's and 3 INT's.

On the defensive side for the Penn State Nittany Lions, the team gave up a lot of yards, but had 4 huge turnovers and also got a huge day from Glenn Carson (11 tackles), Trevor Williams (10 tackles), Stephen ObengAgyapong (10 tackles), and C.J Olaniyan (8 tackles with 3 being sacks).

Both sides of the ball are hoping to improve next week against the Eastern Michigan Eagles at home in front of a sold-out Beaver Stadium where they look to cut down on the turnovers and work on getting off the field a bit better as Syracuse racked up 30 first downs against the Penn State defense.
