Via @JayPaterno on twitter, we find that the kickoff for the first 3 games (Akron, Syracuse, and Temple) will be at 12:00 Noon. Get ready to fire up those grills and coolers early! The article on Go PSU Sports also mentioned that all 3 will be televised on the Big Ten Network. Here’s the full article.

Football Tickets

10:58 am · June 24th, 2009 · Written by Trav · No Comments

With Wednesday upon us, sophomores once again have their chance to snatch up their set of eight tickets for the coming year. Though many will miss hanging the stubs up on their dorm room cork board, perhaps this electronic system will help to cut down on scalping and benefit us as a student body in the long run.

With Monday however came the seniors chance to get tickets. Ben, myself and many of our friends were all online eagerly at 6:55 am waiting for the system to let us in. We all got our tickets shelling out the nearly quarter of a k, relatively painlessly. It turns out (via The Collegian) that senior tickets did not sell out. Perhaps, as i have heard, people just forgot to pre-register. Or they forgot when the sale was altogether. I’m sure that some people will no doubt get screwed by the system but we can only hope it’s significantly less than in years gone by.

Did you get Student Football Tickets for 2009?

Oops! The Spill Canvas is actually headlining!

2:28 pm · March 22nd, 2009 · Written by Ben · No Comments

So it turns out that The Spill Canvas is actually the headliner for Movin’ On this year. They will be supported by Innerpartysystem, Person L, Laura Reed and the Deep Pockets and Socratic.

Originally we had posted saying The White Tie Affair is headlining, as seen on Pollstar.com. However, The Spill Canvas has been confirmed to be the headliner and it doesn’t appear that The White Tie Affair will be playing. But this doesn’t entirely make sense because the festival is listed as a tour date for them on both their website and on Pollstar. Something isn’t right, and and I’ll try to figure it out.

Florida State Appealing NCAA Ruling

11:54 am · March 17th, 2009 · Written by Trav · 1 Comment

Today on ESPN.com, the Florida State cheating scandal was brought up with respect to a recent appeal the school has filed. FSU is looking at, among other things, being stripped of wins in 10 different sports (most notably the Seminole’s football program). Bobby Bowden personally would be looking at losing 14 checks in the win column. [Read more →]

Penn State snubbed from NCAA, lands #2 seed in NIT

8:34 pm · March 15th, 2009 · Written by Ben · No Comments

After an unexpected 22 win season from the Nittany Lions, hopes were high for the team’s first trip to the big dance since 2001. But a low RPI, a poor out of conference schedule, and late season losses against Iowa and Purdue proved to be just enough to keep us from being this year’s Cinderella. While I believe we weren’t that deserving of an invitation to the dance, it is a little frustrating that seven other Big Ten teams were selected. Penn State finished sixth in the regular season standings this year.

If there’s any good news about this whole situation, it’s the fact that the BJC will host at least one more basketball game this season. The Men’s Team has received the consolation prize of a #2 seed in the NIT and will face George Mason at 8pm on Tuesday in the Beej. The team and staff have worked hard this year, It would be great to see strong crowd support for the game on Tuesday, even if our bubble has burst.
