A lot of empty seats at Beaver Stadium...

"Early" being the key word. They just committed a big mistake on that mishandle of the punt. Ohio State will wear them out.
Lotsa red too....although I think some of what the OP was referring too has filled in. Almost like it was general admin where the corner was the last to fill
Weather might keep this tight. Plus I think mcsorley and barkley are good players with heart. Can see them keeping this within 2 scores

Please. that's the least of the tone deaf things they have done
I actually don't disagree. everything about that cesspool disgusts me. remember when they all wore 42 on their helmet for that one player?
blatant pass interference. I know the CFL allows replay challenges regarding pass interference, wonder if American football will adopt this. Between this play and the Atlanta-Seattle game last week something needs to be done, that is two games blatantly decided by missed pass interference calls
This makes me puke. These a**hole fans will use this as vindication.
And eff you Franklin. This town has been through a lot? This starts the healing process.

The butt hurt here is too funny. Some of you need to get a life. The cult is alive and well, lol. And Franklin has a huge signature win, not that it ever mattered. You should focus on Miami, not Penn State.
Miami definitely....we already beat penn state...rear view baby!!!
Supposedly ingress into the stadium was a total disaster this evening.
Growing trend, unfortunately, at sporting events with growing security these days.
I was at 2015's PSU @ Temple game that sold out the Linc: that didn't completely fill up until the end of the 1st Quarter --- same issue.

Nope, that happen to PSU Fans earlier this year at PITT!

This is nothing to be proud of in winning or losing, like the announcer said the Scandal & Sanctions shamed Penn State name, even well congratulation the Win.

Yep, and Narduzzi beat Franklin Heads Up and that matter to you and PSU Fans!
You should focus on Miami, not Penn State.
Pitt did not play this week, and the next game is VT that is Ranked Team, and Pitt is doing that as Penn State should have focused on Pitt in September?

I am glad they did, it is near the Election, Sporting Events are Prime Targets, and ISIS wants to hurt America. I welcome it but I am more worried about High School Games. Few know it, but the San Bernardino Husband & Wife Terrorists was heading to a Grade School Armed to the Teeth to kill small children, First Respondents Intercepted and killed them before they got there.
I was at 2015's PSU @ Temple game that sold out the Linc: that didn't completely fill up until the end of the 1st Quarter --- same issue.
I'll take that kind of Fan Base any day at Pitt minus the 24,000 that had to wait. Congratulations, and the Fans enjoyed a Great Win over OSU since 2011!

What was the last US sporting event targeted by terrorists? The Boston Marathon? And before that?
95% of what they do in the name of security at sporting events is "security theater" rather than something that would actually stop a terrorist attack.
Fun fact, at every Pitt game this year I have set off the metal detector at the gate. Twice they didn't even bother to wand me after the alarm went off. The other two times they did what they always do, both at Heinz and at the Petersen Center. They ran the wand right over my hand that was holding my cell phone and keys. The wand never went off. If a cell phone and a set of keys don't set off the detector on the wand, and they literally never have, then what else could someone be theoretically carrying into the game that would never get detected?
All this increased security is all about one thing. If or when something does happen the people running the venue want to be able to say "well we did everything we could". It's about lawsuit avoidance, not actual security.
I actually agree. I have a metal belt that always sets off the detector . they ask if I have anything in my pockets. I say no and they let me through

I don't disagree, but I was once privileged to be given a Private Tour of Fort Pitt Tunnels and Heinz Stadium. Each time the Tour Guides one from PENNDOT and the other from Steeler Security told us it is all about Security for them. When any top Dignitary like Prince Charles, Prince Andrew and Presidents or Candidates, the tunnel is full of Security. There are Video Tapes Recognition Abilities as well, and if any car or truck run out of Gas or breaks down within mile of the Tunnel, Security will be there in minute give you gas to make you go on your way. It is a 144,000 cars a day that go thru it and must be secure.
At Heinz they have certain levels during games one cannot pass without certain passes. The same at any Stadium and it is the #1 Priority before a game. They are vigilant and there are aspects few know and why NFL often hires Ex-Secret Service as Executives of NFL Security.
I was just at Cowboy's Stadium for BAMA-USC game and they had the same back up lines but have it much better organized since it was Pre-Terrroism Days. No water or other beverages were even allowed and if one had a Truck could probably collect a Truck Load thrown away or left near the trash not even open.
Penn State is renovating its Stadium and it is one of the largest in the world, and security will make it better. they do a first rate job at Penn State in many things and don't let Football pride or Emotions get in the way of that is my advice. I look at the best of anything and welcome competition, and see no reason to admire what they do right, Penn State has much to be proud of and even more after the Scandal.

WOW, is all I have to say. I know Traffic all week was been delayed in and around Pittsburgh due to Trump & Hillary visits. When you see State Police or Other Police Cars off of every exit someone big is in town.

Right, it is all about Insurance Reduction Risk too, but few know what goes on and into security and it is and will be a constant target today and the future. I was told on both Tours quietly to quit asking questions on security? I took it as a compliment but I like to learn.
Part of the reason why the Clery Act was passed was due to inform Parents & Students about on, off, and near campus crime, and if you recall PSU Posters used to put up False Crime Stats on Pitt Players and Campus, until responded how it was far worst at Penn State and the Sandusky Scandal exposed it even more than ever known and intentionally ignored?
This is something that Cultists can't understand even today and they now attack Penn State that fixed it? They are both benefit and burden just over Football and belief one man comes ahead of the University?

If a terrorist wanted to set off a bomb at a sporting event and do maximum human damage a great place to do it would be in the crowd of hundreds (and really, probably thousands at it's peak) of people all jammed together into a very small space waiting to go through the security line. Doing something that forces large quantities of people into small spaces where quite literally anyone can walk into at any time with anything at all on them is a recipe for disaster.
By the way, when the terrorist tried to set off bombs at the soccer game in France notice that it wasn't metal detectors that kept them from getting into the stadium. It was trained, vigilant security personnel who didn't need a metal detector to see that someone was up to no good.

My son used my PSU tickets Sat night and he said it was absolutely a mess at kickoff at the entrances.Main reason stupid fans who waited at their tailgates untill 25 minutes before kickoff.It wasn't security's fault,fans fault.He said people were still coming in at the end if the first quarter.Lucky he's smart like his mother(Slippery Rock grad) and went in early.
Umm....might that have included the tactic of.....OH THE HORRORS....."Profiling"?
