The 2010 Penn State Football Schedule has been released, meaning Nittany Lion football fans can start the detailed analysis procedure of where wins and losses can come from, plus get started organizing their gameday travels to Happy Valley as well as road trips. This season’s schedule is characterised as having its typical amount of large time Big 10 conference match ups, some lousy out of conference match-ups, and one absolute enormous clash. Penn State plays its common Big 10 opponents. This year there are Big 10 home games in State College versus Illinois, Northwestern, and Michigan State (who continue to be a PSU menace). Illinois will be the homecoming game on October 9th, which ought to be perfect time of yr for being in Happy Valley. Penn State will get away games in conference vs . Iowa, Minnesota, Michigan, and Ohio State. You could possibly argue the tougher games are on the road in the Big 10 this yr. The Lions skip Wisconsin this year which is a break. On big schedule development is the Indiana game, that was to be played on the road, will be played out at FedEx Field in Landover, MD (outside Washington DC). Essentially, Indiana took a huge paycheck to enable 80,000 Penn State fans to watch the game nearer to home in the DC region. Without a doubt, the signature game within the season is against Alabama on September 11th. Penn State vs Alabama ticketswill be one of the toughest college football tickets to get early in the season as these two storied football programs match in Tuscaloosa, AL. The PSU vs Bama game promises to get one of the the best early season matchups in college football. Of course it will probably be a extremely difficult game for Penn State, because Alabama is the returning national champion and guarantees to be very good next year. The remainder of the Penn State 2010 schedule perhaps is really weak. You can find out of conference games versus Youngstown State, Kent State, and Temple, all at home. Granted Temple was a bowl team last yr, but none of these matchups guarantee to be contests. Obviously with all the talk of Big Ten conference expansion going on, the appear of future Penn State football schedules could to begin to appear incredibly, very different. The possibility of teams like Syracuse, Rutgers, UConn, and Penn State's in-state rival from the past Pitt could all of a sudden be back as conference opponents. That would definitely shake things up, and for one create an unbalanced schedule which would mean more rotation of teams on the schedule from year to year. Overall, it’s a excellent schedule for Penn State in 2010. They have the Alabama game to get through, several tough road Big 10 games, and workable games at property in the Big 10. The game at Fed Ex field is interesting and will make for fun for the fan base and will likely be good for recruiting in a location that is very good to them. Looking forward to a fresh Penn State football year!
