All week long the talking heads of college football debated that if # 3 Penn St. went to # 9 Ohio St. and came out with a win and Alabama did not look impressive in Knoxville the Nittany Lions could jump Alabama in this week's BCS poll.
Luckily for us, Alabama did look impressive in a 29-9 win at Tennessee and held off Joe Paterno's team in the second BCS poll released earlier tonight. While Penn St. did close the gap behind Alabama this week their remaining strength of schedule will make it tough for Penn St. to catch Alabama unless we lose. The Nittany Lions have three games remaining against Iowa, Indiana, and Michigan St, none of which will be big enough to vault the Nittany Lions over either Alabama or Texas. Also, the Big 10 does not have a conference championship game unlike both the BIG IX and SEC.
