Regardless of what happens this weekend against Ohio State, Penn State will end the regular season with double-digit wins. This will be the third time in four years they’ve done that, and came awfully close last year to making it four straight.
Pending how the playoff rankings shake out at the end of the season, it’s also possible (if not probable) that the Lions will make a New Year’s Six bowl for the third time in four years (again, coming within a win in 2018 of making it four straight).
Yet it seems to me that people are a bit more upset about “only” making a NY6 bowl this year.
