Emotions May Be Too High for Another Upset

Does Penn State have enough for another

Penn State's last win against ranked Michigan State was great but now the #16 Fighting Illini are coming into town to burst Penn State's bubble.

The past few days the Nittany Lion players have been on such a high that it will be tough for them to come back to reality and be prepared for Illinois. Illinois guards are talented but young, Talor Battle should come out aggressive. Fans should be more worried about the two big seniors in Mike Davis and Mike Tisdale who will both be getting in the way of Brooks and Jones on both offense and defense.

Look for a decent sized crowd looking for another upset but let's just hope for a good showing against a strong team.

If you cannot make it to the game you can listen to Steve Irons and I commentate the whole game on thelion.fm or if you are in the State College area you can listen on the radio on 90.7fm.
