Makes me sick the way some of our fans are trying to make this out be any thing more than a football game.

There's some history behind it, yeah. But I tend to agree with you. Those guys want to beat Alabama. That's their primary focus. They're not going to grant us first downs out of kindness or spot us a few points here and there. It's a competition.

Paterno is a great coach. Outside of that, I don't really much care. In the same way, I have a lot of respect for Tim Tebow, but during the SECCG, he was just another opponent.

That doesn't mean that I'd boo Paterno State when they run onto the field, but I'm not gonna hold back celebrating a win out of "kindness" either. If you don't play to win, you're wasting time.
