Our staff is optimistic about Penn State's chances headed into Saturday's game vs. UMass.

When the Bengals pledged all proceeds from his jersey to the Cincinnati Children's Hospital, Devon Still set a franchise record for jersey sales in a day. A week later, a local retail outlet in State College is chipping in to the cause as well, selling a "S71LL STRONG" that plays off of a similar design created in Cincinnati. McLanahan's agreed to give all proceeds from the shirt to Still, who tweeted that he will donate the money to The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia.

If you've watched any Penn State football in the past three weeks, you're probably familiar with the name DaeSean Hamilton by now. The young wide receiver has played a big part in Penn State's hot start to the season. His 11 catch, 165 yard performance in the Croke Park Classic garnered him national attention, and placed his name amongst the cream of the crop in college football. At this time last year, however, Hamilton was just another face in the crowd.

When UMass comes to Penn State this Saturday it's not just going to be a battle between our football teams, it's going to be a battle between fans. It's time to prove that the Penn State fan base has the swaggiest fans around. But how do you do that when we're all poor college students? The answer, my friends, is DIY. Grab some fabric paint and paintbrushes, and we will show you how it's done.
