Has to be Braun. MSU, Wisconsin, and PSU.

Still right. Beat Michigan 89-83, Crisler Arena, Dec. '97.

Uncle Miltie was the coach of that team.

He was, wasn't he...

On second thought I don't think PSU was in the Big 10 when Ben beat them in the tourney.

Penn State joined in 1990, so the 1991 tourney win was indeed a B1G win.

For the fans who were actually there (like me) to witness the EMU basketball glory days, we KNOW that Penn State was in the Atlantic 10, coached by Bruce Parkhill. PSU was in the Atlantic 10 through the 1991 season.

Shut up with the "for fans who were actually there." You are so condescending.....get off your high horse. We are all fans.

Is there any pre-game hype going on? I am pretty excited for a big ten game that is expected to be competitive. AND will be televised.

Win or lose, I'll be happy as long as it is a close game. Conversely, I will be disappointed if Penn St turns this into a blow out gunner game.

We'll see starting in about 10 minutes. GO EMU!!!!

GAME TIME BABY !

Pretty ugly so far. This "Raven Lee off the bench" experiment needs to end.

Just like the Talley off the bench needed to end much sooner last year.

Ugly game so far. Zone forcing bad passes by PSU, but other than that the offense has been run the court and throw up a floater. Tells you a lot about PSU... We definitely have a shot in this one.

Playing some great defense. Forcing penn state into bad shots and poor passes. If only we weren't struggling to finish layups, we'd be winning comfortably right now. I like that we are pushing the ball though.

refs are homering us on the foul valls

Were already in the bonus....

Toney, a normally good free throw shooter, is 1-5 at the line right now. So frustrating. We should be up by a lot more. Penn State looks clueless against the zone.

OK. Give me some Ray Lee, JT4 inside out game. I appreciate Murph being a high class guy when it comes to suspending a player but Ray served his time, put him in he's our best player.

Man you gotta finish that !

Free throws are killing us. Ughhhhh.

Free Raven. Mangum looks terrible offensively.

EMU has 2 bonafide Big 10 starters, JT4 and Ray Lee. Ride em and see what happens. They don't need Mangum shooting wildly.

Penn state now up 10. This is what happens when you don't finish or make free throws against a Big Ten team.

This really is a team EMU can beat.

Thompson is a monster
