Buzz
On Broad is proud to bring to you a brand new segment called "Inside
PSU." We are all aware of the recent events surrounding the proud
university involving some deranged higher-ups formerly employed by Penn State.
The 2012 football season at PSU marks the first season under a new regime and
even more monumentally, the start of a brand new chapter in Penn State history.
While
the national media will have their eyes closely affixed to the school from the
outside looking in, you can now rely on Buzz On Broad and our newest
contributor, PSU Insider Dan Smith, to shed light on the morale and attitude
from within the confines of Happy Valley.
Look
for Dan Smith to break down every game this season each week, from a gridiron
perspective to the pulse of the fan base and student body. Enjoy this recap
from Penn State's season finale against Wisconsin.

Can Badgers leave their baggage behind?

Line's resurgence justifies early-season change
MADISON, Wis. Reflections 80 days after Wisconsins worst performance of the football season come with the kind of blunt, honest criticism members of the teams offensive line couldnt diagnose when they were too close to the situation.
Back on Sept. 8, they had no answers. Wisconsin lost a stunning 10-7 decision at Oregon State that day, and the Badgers flaws were obvious. A program...
Gophers' offense left searching for answers

The Gophers held a brief one-point lead in the first half but were outscored 13-3 after halftime as they fell to 6-6 on the season.

2012 Big Ten Championship: Nebraska Cornhuskers at Wisconsin Badgers Preview & Prediction
On Saturday night, the Nebraska Cornhuskers (10-2) and the Wisconsin Badgers (7-5) will face off in the second Big Ten Championship Game.
While the game features last year’s champion, Wisconsin, this season’s championship has a much different feel then the Wisconsin-Michigan State classic from 2011, and the two teams’ paths to this game couldn’t be much different.
Nebraska Cornhuskers...
Sexy Six Week 14: You Hear That? K.M’s Coming (Bryan: 44-33-1, $1,090, K.M: 42-35-1, -$550, HH: 24-14 $620)
Well well well what do you know? I was concerned about K.M Venne. Our chance at going back to back on the three-feature profit was in danger with his Week 12 performance. It looked like a long shot he’d be able to get it back. Nonetheless week 13 rolls around and K.M drops a +480 week to get himself back to a -550 and now week 14 becomes a must have week for our resident Virginia...
