"The Great Danes of Albany come into State College & beat the Nittany Lions"!!!!!!

 

Where does this rank on the all time win list? Washington Penn St Utah?? What do you think?

Washington was bigger at the time. But, this arguably is close to that because of the entire re-tooling of this team, and the loss of Rowley for a large portion of the 2nd half.

To be clear... Neither one of these regular season games means as much to me as any of the 5 chip games. But as far as regular season, this is the second best win after Washington. That was our first bcs win... It was special.

Will Brown just continues to re-load. I cannot remember an opener where I was trying to figure out who everyone was more than this one. And naturally Coach Brown puts a brand new squad together who goes on the road to Penn St and wins!! The announcers said it best "fearless". They weren't flinching at the free throw line at the end! I had no clue what to expect from this team this year because of all the new faces. This certainly has me excited! Great win!!!

So, lose our senior backcourt and then go out and beat a Big 10 team on the road. Boo-yeah.

 

Will Brown has more Big 10 wins this year than Steve Piekiell

 

Not sure the stats are right but beat them on the boards by 15?

That's with Rowley out for the last what... 10 minutes or something.

[UAalum72]

Wow

 

Cremo 22 and 10 rb, Nichols19, Ennema 20, good balanced scoring

 

 

Out rebounds Penn St. 43-26, offensive RB 12-6

 

Only 15 turnovers vs a gamelong zone press

 

And I guess Will Brown isn't just the Guru of the Grind

[McFan]

Not knocking Rowley but he had 4 boards. Not sure his loss hurt on the boards.

 

What a win though. We can score the ball.

[Clickclack]

Can we just collectively tip our cap to Dallas? What a game from. This baller...

[dmurph43]

Click- NO WAY it compares to any of the championships!! I should have been more clear of what I meant with "all time". I was at the "Hooley Shot" so NO an opener versus Penn St ranks nowhere near any of the post season or tournament games we had success in.

Don't discount the body/size freeing up others for rebounds.

How about the mid range jumpers from everyone. They looked much more poised and polished than your typical decent mid major. Very impressed

[UAalum72]

Where we were supposed to be, Duke beat Marist by about 50

 

Wagner beat UConn

Agreed... I dont know if it will hold but that was as poised a will brown team as I've ever seen. Methodical... Will remain to be seen how good the team is that they just beat but big 10 is big 10...

ESPN stats say UA outrebounded PSU by 17, 43-26. Offensive rebounds 12-6. Very close, DP.

[DanesRGood]

Didn't they change the foul rules before last season that offensive players cannot jump into defenders to draw a foul? That looked exactly like what happened on Ennema's foul. I'm just glad it didn't matter.

 

I watched the game from my android phone on the ESPN3 app, through chromecast on my TV and it looked like an HD regular ESPN broadcast. So awesome.

 

YUUUUUUUUUGE win! Happy for the players and coaches.
