From greenbayphoenix.com:
"This will be the 36th meeting between the Phoenix and the Penguins, with Green Bay owning a large advantage, 32-3, in the all-time series. Although the advantage heavily favors the Phoenix, recent history has seen more balanced outcomes. Green Bay has won three-consecutive games against YSU, but lost the two prior to that, bringing Green Bay’s record to 3-2 in the last five matchups. Two of Green Bay’s three victories over Youngstown State last season were by more than 20 points."
