9. To be fair if there wasn't any sanctions i think they would have gone 10-2 and got a bid

The first 2 games of the season were with lesser football programs with Ohio University and Virginia. Ohio U did have a decent season but PSU was picked to beat them. Virginia had a losing season.

I think there was alot of stress and growing pains in those first 2 games since they were the first after the whole sandusky mess and loss of Paterno. If you look at the rest of the schedule they had a very strong high scoring season with their only losses to nationally ranked teams. And even in those losses they still scored over 20 points.

They wouldn't have been near a national champsionship but they would have gotten a bowl bid and that's where the big money is!
