For the 1st time in the History of Bragging Rights Sports, we have the same game covered in 2 different series. This game even to this day is still one of the most crazy games in Whiteout History. Anytime you can beat an SEC team on a National Stage is saying something. This week, on Penn State Football Classics, we conclude our Blue and White doubleheader with a game that certainly lived up to the hype. WE ARE!

The 2005 Whiteout to me changed the gameday experience at Beaver Stadium, the PSU faithful went from being declared by national media members as the quietest 100,000 people in the country, to the greatest atmosphere in all of College Football overnight. This week on the 1st of 2 Penn State Football Classic games, we take you back to the raucous scenes from that memorable October night in Week 6 of the 2005 College Football season. WE ARE!

For those that don’t understand the success of the 2016 Penn State Nittany Lions, this game against Minnesota on a wet Saturday in early October set the stage for 2 of the greatest wins in school history. This week on Penn State Football Classics, we relive the game that fueled the run to the 2016 BIG10 Championship. WE ARE!

Every year that Joe Paterno coached at Penn State, the only way it would be a successful season is if they beat Ohio State. This game proves that thinking. In what was supposed to be a highly anticipated shootout, it quickly became a defensive struggle which ended up in a Nittany Lion triumph. This week on Penn State Football Classics, we take you back to basically a 15 Round heavyweight fight between 2 legendary head coaches and their rock solid defenses. WE ARE!

If you compare this Penn State team vs the one from 2021, there was one major difference in their games against Iowa at Kinnick Stadium. Saquan Barkley. He totaled over 300 yards of offense, and set up Trace McSorley’s game winning touchdown pass to Juwan Johnson at the gun. This week on Penn State Football Classics, we take you back to one crazy September night in Iowa City. WE ARE!

This game is probably the most bizarre game in this series. Who would have thought that Penn State following an embarrassing 4th Quarter collapse the game before against Indiana would knock off #18 Michigan. Only the diehards and all the students did. This week on Penn State Football Classics, we take you back to dramatic 2013 Homecoming and Whiteout game to relive the action. WE ARE!

To me this is the game that shifted the balance of power in the state of Pennsylvania in terms of who had the best College Football team in the State. JoePa and his defense beating the tar out of Dan Marino and scoring 48 unanswered points will do that. Here is this week’s Penn State Football Classic which features a memorable frigid day at Pitt Stadium. WE ARE!

Saquan Barkley, and Trace McSorley. When you hear those 2 names on Penn States campus. One game comes to mind. Its this one. In what was supposed to be a heavyweight clash between 2 BIG10 powers turned into a Whiteout Frenzy dominated by the Nittany Lions. The 2 of them combined for 6 touchdowns in a 42-13 shellacking. This week Penn State Football Classics, we present to you, the 2017 Whiteout. WE ARE!

Its Tuesday Night, and you know what that means? WE ARE! PENN STATE!!! Thats right another Whiteout game featured in this series the 2nd of 3 in 4 weeks. In this game, the Nittany Lions who many said hadn’t beat a legit opponent did so by knocking down #22 Illinois. Derrick Williams and Anthony Scirrotto like in 07 against Notre Dame had a huge impact on this game. Here is how everything went down. WE ARE!
