and we don't have 10 percent of the rivalry with them than y'all do.

BUT, no one at penn state would ever claim those bullshit co-big ten champion status that ohio state likes to claim after we beat them, because we know you have to beat the big dogs for it to count. i admit that we probably care more about ohio state than vice versa...but the point still stands.

college football is ABOUT the rivalries. if you win the national championship with one loss, but you have to hear about it from your rival for the rest of the year, what have you really won?
