I started to re-read this yesterday, but had to take a break after it got too dusty in here.

Going to a game; need advice

Over the past few years my sons, now five and six years old, have become big Penn State football fans. So, as neither of them nor my wife have ever been to a football game, I've been thinking of taking them to one. Living here near the other PSU (Portland State), I'd supposed we'd go to some local high school game or other.
But, then I thought: Why not go 500 times further to see a real game with 500 times the attendance?
OK, that's not exactly the thought process, but anyway... we've booked flights back to State College and we're going to the Akron game.
Now, I haven't been to Penn State for a game for more than ten years, and I'd have to go back another ten to count a second game at Beaver stadium. (And I barely know what all this tweedle-dee tweedle-doo stuff is.)
JoePa in 2009?
From the ESPN Big Ten Blog:
"Also, Paterno will have his injured hip examined by doctors this week, most likely Wednesday. He hopes to receive any necessary treatment, including surgery, immediately after the season so he can 'get on the road and go out and recruit.'
In other words, Paterno has no plans to step down after the season."
Things I'd like to see

I've been looking forwards to this week's game ever since the final whistle of the destruction of Wisconsin.
I admit it; I was the one looking past UM; sorry about that.
Anyway, without further ado, a list of ten things I'd like to see:

In the top five?
"The quick conclusions are that Ohio State is not nearly as good as we thought, USC is a little shaky and Penn State should be in the top five."
