“Preseason JP Poll top 10 Penn State” is how I would prefer them to be introduced
— Josh Pate (@LateKickJosh) September 17, 2022The Preseason JP Poll Top 10 Penn State Nittany Lions (a bit of a mouthful, ain’t) went down to an SEC stadium, one never visited by another Big Ten team, and took the home team to the woodshed in one of the more convincing wins in the James Franklin era. In fact, it may be one of the more convincing road wins, period, in a very long time. A sampling of such victories, brought to you by the Black Shoe Diaries Slack Channel:
1) 2012 at Iowa
2) 2008 at Wisconsin
3) 2009 at Michigan
4) 2005 at Illinois
5b) 2018 at Pitt
6) 2019 at Maryland
There are plenty of others, but you can easily see how this win stacks up with those.
