OBurg, you know your stuff about as well as anybody on this board, but I have to disagree with you on this one. That game happened later in the season, and the team had all the signs of being stellar. We were ranked 13th going into that game. PSU was number 10. That Penn State was a helluva a lot better than the Florida State we beat today, and the '87 SU team was much better than the '18 Orange.  I remember being disappointed that  Coach Mac let up and allowed PSU to score two late touchdowns. Paterno said as much in the post game press conference.

The defining win of our turn around has yet to happen.

In a related note, Auburn lost today, making this Saturday all the more enjoyable.  My tech support guy is an Auburn grad. When we first met, I told him, "At Syracuse, we call your coach Pat Tie." He shook his head and said, "So do we. Why would anyone play for a tie in the Sugar Bowl?"

What does feel similar is feeling really, really good after a win over a perennial power. That team may not be all that good, but beating the uniform feels great.
