I also think a sizable chunk of the fan base just assumes a loss is happening and may stay home to avoid being stuck in traffic angry. Again.
Damn shame because I don't see a universe in which State doesn't drag SMU into deep water and drown them. SMU has a couple good receivers, but they don't have a Tez Johnson or Kenyon Sadiq and if the last month has been any indication of how things are going to go, you're going to need to score at least 40 to get past Penn State.
Even though Kotelnicki said he's staying next year, a few big games in the playoffs (Boise State's defense is low level awful) and he may get an offer he can't say no to. This may be the only chance you can guarantee to see a home playoff game. Locals need to step up and take the seats that are available.
