A Nittany Lions football game is going to happen tomorrow, whether we're ready for it or not.

Alabama Waited Until Sunday To Give Students SEC Championship Ticket Info
There's poor timing, then there's sending out a schoolwide email telling Bama students to get on the waiting list the day after their overtime loss to LSU. This isn't as wrong as it seems, though.
