As everybody knows by now, the old rivalry between Penn State and Alabama finally renews Saturday night with the first meeting between the two since 1990. The two programs originally were scheduled for a home-and-home series in 2004-05, but Penn State allowed Alabama athletic director Mal Moore and his program to back out of that agreement due to NCAA violations that the Tide were dealing with at the time. The series was pushed back to 2010-11 — and here we are. Little did anybody know that when the series resumed the Crimson Tide would be coming off a national championship. And little did anybody know that the Nittany Lions would be asking a true freshman to quarterback the squad to victory behind an offensive line that still has a lot to prove. But just as everybody said that a win over Youngstown State shouldn’t be looked at too closely, I have the same opinion of a potential — and somewhat probable — defeat in Tuscaloosa on Saturday.
