The trick is catastrophically low expectations.

I feel like I have seen this game before in my 30 plus years of ND fandom.

This is classic Penn State/ND. It’s a grind. Never an easy W, and usually involves a decent amount of alcohol as a fan. Trust me on this.

(Yes, this is painful.)

impressive by Angeli but I'm not sure he can hang on. Need Leonard's athleticism to keep this freaky PSU o-line off balance.

Nothing more demoralizing than something like that Penn State TD drive against your team in a high stakes game. Just pure torture.

Trying living as a Detroit fan, it doesn't matter the sport one team is always out of contention three weeks into the season.

Before about 2017, that was Atlanta. Since then, we’ve had Atlanta United, the Braves, and UGA (twice!) win titles. God, if the Falcons hadn’t blown that SB, the aura of losing would just be gone.

Take heart, they are in decent shape all things considered with that field goal at the end of the half. Hopefully, Leonard can come back.

The Chiefs might be the one exception to this. 6 years of Mahomes has almost broke me in a good way with my teams.

Based on this I can only assume non-fans find most South Carolina games to be fantastic.

reply

joshuafielding9.bsky.social•43 days ago

Oh this entire season I made sure I knew which slate South Carolina played it because I could rely on it probably being a good game

Yeah we really feel for you guys, having to endure all these big games. Prayers up! - Maryland (and like 300 other schools who will never play in them ever) fans.

The 59 minutes before this was sheer torture. This was a month after Alabama whooped our ass in Atlanta.

That’s why every Georgia fan screamed like hell after this. I have video of me yelling like a woman in the background.

Oh but I guess everyone else was calmly entertained.
