Welcome to the Audible presented by Trader Joe's. I'm Stuart Mandel.

Join, as always, by Bruce Feldman.

And Bruce, we want to get to some really good emails this week.

I just wanted to bring on people who may have remembered last year.

So John Hayes, our producer, as a Penn State alum.

This is, by the way, it comes to, usually we refer to whoever comes on as a special guest.

Let's call John an unspecial guest.

Ouch.

We proceed to bring him on for the purpose you're proceeding to bring him on.

He's usually listening in anyway.

But so John's Penn State alum, and I remember last year when James Franklin got his big contract

we talked about it on here and John came on and he was not happy about it right not happy about

the direction of the program et cetera et cetera so John was at the Penn State Auburn game he drove there

and we talked about it on Sunday that was an impressive performance by the Nint E Lions.

It's got people talking about whether they might even be a dark horse playoff team.

So, I mean, John, you tell us, like, how are you feeling about things right now?

Well, I'm feeling fantastic considering any time a Big Ten team goes down to an SEC stadium and wins 41 to 12th.

It's a nice banner in the facility for any Big Ten program.

But if you guys want me to eat Crow, it's not going to happen today.

You know, all I'll say this is congratulations, Penn State beat Purdue on the road on the final drive.

Purdue is not the Ohio State Buckeyes, not the Michigan Wolverines, not Michigan State.

That's a game that Penn State should win every season.
