PSU's first 7 years were fine. 6 of the last 7 have not been so great (or 5.5, as 9-4 is sort of on the cusp). They only have 2 league titles which is a bit surprising, but OTOH they've turned in some good seasons. The thing holding them back is falling apart late in 97/98/99, when they had very good teams. Lately they've been very mediocre, however. Going 5-9 against OSU and 3-9 against Michigan isn't helping the overall image.

I'm not talking about just football. There's more to a school athletic program than football you know.

I boycott this poll on the grounds that the OP excluded the MWC from the selection.

No, but that's what Lennon was referencing, so I stuck with that.

Born and raised for 22 years in Gainesville, so I'll root for the Gators forever. I was also a Notre Dame fan when I was a kid although I don't follow them nowadays. I only really root for SEC teams when they're in a bowl games so that the conference looks good. I also root for Auburn and Alabama as my dad is an alum of both.

I didn't know you were allowed to root for both.

I've said it before it happened and my opinion has never changed....joining the big10 was bad for Penn St football.

Isn't this mostly "what conference is your team in?" Most people will just go with that. I'm more interested in who, outside of your conference, you tend to pull for the most, and how many people are generally against most of their conferences' teams.

That's pretty much what it is. As a PSU student, I am required to vote for the Big Ten despite personally hating every Big Ten besides PSU.
