    How is Drexel's football team doing this year? Are they in the top 25?

    It's a shame that a small group of drunk students can give the other 35K students a bad name. If you've ever been to PSU, you know that the majority of the students are just passionate fans. I've read several articles and it's been reported that it was not a riot, most of the students were simpling cheering in the streets. A small group did damage. DrexelDragonFan - get a life. PSU doesn't care about Drexel.

    I am a HUGE PSU fan, but that is totally uncalled for. First of all, people acting like wild animals is disgusting. No doubt, it was a huge win, but throw in the fact that they only beat the number 9 team in the nation and this is pathetic!

    Nothing beats college football. Glad to see a team in the region has national championship hopes. We need more PSU football coverage in this town. Imagine the phillies and JoePa champions in the same season!

    Wow. Reminds me of College Park after Maryland plays Duke. They riot whether they win or lose that game. And they rioted when they won the 2002 National Championship. I used to live down that way. It was ridiculous.

    WE ARE...IT BURNS! No, but for real - congratulations to Joe Pa and Penn State for beating those ham-hands, extra chromosome toting cousins known as the Ohio State Buckeyes.

    Wow - people are acting like it was very student there - it was a small group and most were celebrating, not destroying! I was there during the arts fest riot( which was mostly out of towners)
