Citrus Bowl Loss Sours McSorley’s Final Game #14 Kentucky Wildcats 27 – #12 Penn State Nittany Lions 24 The final game of Trace McSorley’s career was supposed to end with another 10 win season, the chance to break 10,000 career passing yards and give Penn State its third consecutive 10 win season…a feat that hasn’t happened since the 1980-82 seasons and never since the Nittany Lions joined the Big Ten Conference. Unfortunately,…

Welcome to the fifteenth episode of Shelbee’s Sunday Morning Quarterback! Turning it over now to my husband, the Sunday Morning Quarterback with a recap of yesterday’s games. It’s the Most Wonderful Time of the Year The greatest time of year is upon us. No, I do not mean Christmas. I’m talking about college football bowl season! Although if you really think about it, it is like having a three week Christmas celebration, 40 games in 23 days with the National Championship to close it out. It really is the most wonderful time of the year! Autonation Cure Bowl Tulane Green Wave 41 – Louisiana-Lafayette Rajun Cajuns 24 This game featured…

Shelbee’s Sunday Morning Quarterback #14: America’s Game
Welcome to the fourteenth episode of Shelbee’s Sunday Morning Quarterback! Turning it over now to my husband, the Sunday Morning Quarterback. America’s Game #22 Army Black Knights 17 – Navy Midshipmen 10 Playing for the 119th time since 1890, Army versus Navy has become an iconic symbol of college football. The game in which players will not be heading to the NFL draft to play on Sundays but instead will be donning uniforms to serve their country 365 days a year. The game in which the rivalry, the pure love of the game, and of course, cross service bragging rights are what really matter. The atmosphere at an Army/Navy game…

Shelbee’s Sunday Morning Quarterback #13: Championship Weekend Recap
Welcome to the thirteenth episode of Shelbee’s Sunday Morning Quarterback! Turning it over now to my husband, the Sunday Morning Quarterback. Championship Weekend Recap and Selection Sunday With my Nittany Lions sitting out this Championship Weekend, I’ve decided this edition of the Sunday Morning Quarterback will cover all of the games played yesterday. Today at noon also marks Selection Sunday for the final season rankings and bowl game selections. As much as I’d love to see Penn State head to a New Years Six game, I’m thinking the Citrus Bowl (a.k.a the best of the rest) will be our most likely destination. MAC Championship Game Northern Illinois 30 – Buffalo…

I finally invested in some new fan gear with this cute Penn State fleece that I found in my local Target in Northern New York, which is a really weird place to find Penn State fan gear. But I sure am happy to have it. It is super comfortable and very warm for this snow covered place. Turning it over now to my husband, the Sunday Morning Quarterback. Rivalry week is the final week of the reguar season of college football. This week traditionally pits long time rivals against each…

#14 Penn State Nittany Lions 20 – Rutgers Scarlet Knights 7 Welcome to the eleventh episode of Shelbee’s Sunday Morning Quarterback! Yesterday was the first Saturday this season that I had the opportunity to just lounge around and watch the game with my husband.

#20 Penn State Nittany Lions 22 – Wisconsin Badgers 10 Welcome to the tenth episode of Shelbee’s Sunday Morning Quarterback! Before I turn it over to my husband, the Sunday Morning Quarterback, I want to briefly explain what I am wearing for today’s post. Recently, Dawn Lucy of Fashion Should Be Fun hosted a giveaway for a $250 shopping spree to Foxcroft NYC who specialize in no-iron classic button down shirts and I was the winner! I had to try one of their white button down shirts to see what the rave was all about. Since I was going with white, I also chose a pair of indigo wash denim cropped…

#5 Michigan Wolverines 42 – #14 Penn State Nittany Lions 7 Welcome to the ninth episode of Shelbee’s Sunday Morning Quarterback! Before I turn the keyboard over to my husband, I just want to add a short preface. We are a few hours behind schedule on this one, making it more like the Sunday Afternoon Quarterback…there was a lot of drinking and way too much food consumed yesterday that left us both feeling lethargic this morning. Not to mention, the emotional aspect of yesterday…keep reading for details on that. By the way, I am so proud of my husband for addressing the topics he did in this post today. He…

And here’s my husband, the Sunday Morning Quarterback, with the highlights from yesterday’s Penn State game against Iowa. 4th Quarter Liver Failure Seriously, my liver cannot handle Penn State 4th quarters this season…Four straight games decided by 6 points or less with a fifth one decided by a touchdown, all coming down to the last series of the game and two that didn’t fall in the Nittany Lions’ favor. Folks, I tell you this season is putting a workout on my liver during Saturday afternoons, along with having to…
