The last time Beaver Stadium held a top-five matchup was on August 28, 1999. On Saturday, No. 3 Penn State hosts No. 4 Ohio State for a noon kickoff in one of the most anticipated matchups of the year.

Everyone will have their eyes on Happy Valley this weekend with the likes of College GameDay and Jason Kelce only adding to the drama. That’s why you’re going to need to get the drinks flowing early if you want to make it through this stress-inducing weekend.

So, get up, throw out anything red in your sight, and get yourself drinking.

• If you’re up early for College GameDay, start the day with a shot or two. Coffee comes second.
• If you’re making a sign for College GameDay, take a big swig of your drink. We love your enthusiasm.
• If you’re going to Big Noon Kickoff, finish your drink, then finish another, then another, because you’re going to need it.
• If you see Kelce, shotgun a beer with him. Then, shotgun another. Then, jump off an RV.
• If you’re skipping College GameDay and Big Noon Kickoff for your tailgate, take a sip and relax, you deserve it for sticking to the traditions.
• If you get picked to take the field goal at College GameDay, drink some water. You’re going to need some hydration and a clear mind for that.
• If a College GameDay sign makes you laugh, take a sip, nothing like a giggle to start your day off.
• If Pat McAfee starts a “We Are” chant, finish your drink. I love this school and so do you — let’s celebrate.
• If you make it to a tailgate and College GameDay, sit down, take a breath, then take a sip. Man, you’ve been productive.
• If you make it to the game before noon, down a Fireball shooter. It’s going to be a stressful four hours.
• For every red shirt you see at the game, take a sip. Who let them in?
• Shotgun if Penn State takes the first lead of the game, let’s go!
• Swing back a Fireball shooter every time Penn State scores a touchdown.
• If Penn State is down at halftime, take a shot or two. Maybe treat yourself to a chicken basket, too. Food and drinking make the pain go away, trust us.
• On the flip side, if Penn State is up, scream your head off and rip off a celebratory shot, or two.
• For every Nittany Lions penalty, take a sip.
• If Tyler Warren throws a pass, take a sip in honor of the most versatile tight end in the country.
• Shotgun if Drew Allar isn’t playing. Not my star boy.
• If Penn State secures another win, celebrate by finishing your drink and keep them going the rest of the day!

Have fun, enjoy the game, and stay safe!
