Do I really have to preview this game?<\/p>\n

The 125th season of intercollegiate football at the Pennsylvania State University begins in about 22 hours. The Nittany Lions face the Division I-AA (I’m still not onboard with FCS) Indiana State, best known for being the alma mater of Larry Bird. The Sycamores were 6-5 last year and are, as Frank Zappa<\/strong> said, only in it for the money<\/a> (Altoona Mirror<\/em>).<\/p>\n

The things that matter for Penn State fans:<\/p>\n

Rob Bolden<\/strong> is apparently the starting QB – Lions 24\/7<\/em>
\n
\nMatt McGloin<\/strong> will play about as much as Bolden<\/p>\n

The game is on Big Ten Network with Matt Devlin and Glen Mason. You can try to find the BTN channel it is on using GAMEFINDER<\/a>, but the BTN Web site just changed (looks bloggy) and the widget isn’t there right now. Oops.<\/p>\n

I had more to say on this week’s Blue White Roundtable if you are interested<\/a>.<\/p>\n
