What a statement of their character to come back from behind and win.  Way to rally Penguins!!!!

What a great win!!! Defense with the shutout in the 2nd half and of all things, a turnover to end the game. GO PENGUINS

As I said, our D made Faulkner look like Peyton Manning in the first half. Our D made him look like Brady Quinn in the second half. Go Penguins... ISU is next.

WOW!!!!  A great finish; but why doesn't the defense play half that well in the first half.  Ugh...they make me wanna pull my hair out.   I'll take it.....that was definitely a TEAM win.  Great job Guins!!!

I will eat my words, but wtf happened?  That was a tale of 2 halves.

We got lucky

Game ball to Nick List and Ali Cheaib. Cheaib did what Childs could not & List kept them buried, so they could not get that three score lead in the first-half and then the entire second half. Again ...Rivers and Williams were studs in the second half.

No disrespect, but luck had nothing to do with this game. O and D both adjusted well at half. Offense showed poise and defense forced the turnover to seal it. Thought the D stepped up the pressure on the qb in the 2nd half. Nice to see my fellow Hound catch the winning td!

They overcame adversity, something that Wolford's teams have not demonstrated in the past. This is the most promising part of the entire game for me.

The Defense did have me sick the first half. And I don't have great confidence that they will stop anyone, but maybe they will continue to grow from this.

I watched it.  I understand that the game is over and a win has been recorded.  But my mind still can not process what my eyes had shown me. :D  After so many years of suffering, can this be the night when the demons have been driven away?  Can what we saw from the defense in the second half be the reappearance of that tradition that we all valued so highly during the glory years?  My heart wants to believe but my mind is a stubborn customer.
