Penn State hoops finally won a conference game this week! The Nittany Lions went 1-1 during its most recent stretch of games, as they lost in controversial fashion to Michigan State before taking down Rutgers at home. Actually, that's a bit weak. Penn State tied Rutgers to a tree and beat it over and over with a 9 Iron. Yeah, that's better.

On this episode of the BSD Basketbro Show, Bill, Chad and Tim discuss the week in PSU hoops. The guys hit on everything from the games to Brandon Taylor's injury to whether or not Penn State is held to a lower standard by Big Ten refs. You should listen. It's a good time.

SIIIIIIIIIIIIIIGH. Penn State basketball went out and Penn State basketball'd all over the place over the last two weeks. The Nittany Lions fell to Michigan, Indiana and Purdue by a combined 19 points and generally found ways to clench defeat from the jaws of victory. We're gonna try to cheer you up with the latest episode of the BSD Basketbro Show, in which Bill DiFilippo and Chad Markulics are joined by Onward State's Noel Purcell. The guys talk about the losses, preview the next week and try to figure out what the hell is wrong with Pat Chambers' squad. There may be some Flavor Flav talk in there too. Ugh. This is sad.

The good news is that the BSD Basketbro Show is back. The really good news is that we're joined this week by PennLive basketball reporter and all-around fantastic dude Stephen Pianovich, which you should really be following on Twitter immediately. The bad news is that Bill DiFilippo, Chad Markulics and the Piano man have to discuss Penn State basketball's last two games against Wisconsin and Rutgers. They were both losses. The latter was infinitely more painful than the former. At least the team has won 12 games this year!

Sit back, relax as much as you possibly can, and please, enjoy this week's episode of the best damn Penn State shootyhoops podcast on the internet.
