Fridays are high school football. Saturdays are College football. Sundays (and sometimes Mondays and Thursdays) are NFL professional football. I prefer College football and my team/alumni is only found on ESPN 3 or up, if found televised on cable at all. Eat ‘em up Kats. ❤❤❤
@@F28aj I live in Texas. That stadium might as well be a high school football game on a Friday night. Not special. The norm around here. And just look it up before you start calling people liars.
@RaymondTusk74 Yeah I think that game moment actually inspired the rule change where the DJ can’t play songs if the opposing team is on the field. They can only do it in between plays now. I saw an official threaten to give Colorado a unsportsmanlike penalty if the DJ didn’t stop the music last year.
Just say Penn State. This game is a special game every year at night called "The White Out" It's a night game, nationally televised and against a high ranked team usually in conference. A big game for them and one of the many traditions in college football... This is also a regular game on the schedule, not a championship or anything. THIS is how high level college football is EVERY weekend. Unlike any pro sport ANYWHERE around the world.
@@CptGreenJeans at some point they have to win correct? They never will, because of what that school and the NCAA did to Paterno. PSU’s white out was cool when they actually mattered… it doesn’t and they don’t…GO BLUE
All because of the scarcity of football. Only 12 regular season games per year. Half of which (6 or 7) are usually home. When you put that into perspective it's so special because you only get a few of these games per year to cherish these moments.
It's called a WHITEOUT. Local television, radio, sports stations, and the school will all be advertising this game is a whiteout. Sometimes they will give you props such as towels or pom poms at the gate when you enter.
For context, this is the only time I’ve EVER seen a team need to call one of their 3 timeouts on the FIRST PLAY OF THE GAME. Timeouts are normally used to regroup, stop the clock, or change something in your team. They can be very precious toward the end of the half or the end of the game to manage time so they’re usually saved for later. Michigan were completely lost here and couldn’t hear a thought in their own head
Uga vs Arkansas in 2021, they didn’t use a timeout, but probably should’ve because they had like 2 or 3 false starts back to back on their first possession of the game because the crowd was so loud, and it was a day game.
State College, where the Penn State Main Campus is located, becomes the 3rd largest city in Pennsylvania when they play a home game at Beaver Stadium. It's really hard to put into words how big College Football is and the traditions that are behind it all.
Record attendance for a college football game is 150,990, Tennessee vs Virginia Tech played 2016. It was regular season game. It was played at the Bristol Motor Speedway close to the city of Bristol which straddles the Virginia / Tenn state line.
The US is so large there are many states without an NFL Team. In general, the further away from a large city College ( Average age 18-21) & even High School (Average age 16-18) Football is life.
I loved white out games! We usually had a couple a year. Night games. This game against Michigan drew in about 110,000 people. The stadium should only hold 106,000. Lol. I think Michigan still has the largest stadium. I can't remember how many it holds.
People who attend the football games are general fans, students of the college and alumni who have graduated. Penn State football team plays with Blue Jerseys for home games and white for away games. The years that are for undefeated championships they won those years
I've been to these white out games as a penn state fan. The atmosphere is something truly spectacular. It is deafening loud. It's really hard to put into words the experience but it's a memory that I cherish.
1:40 - The 'dates' (years) embossed around the stadium indicate the seasons Penn State went undefeated, won a national championship, or (starting with the 1990 season) won a conference championship. They are currently in the Big 10 (which now has 16 teams).
Penn State doesn’t always do a White out. It’s typically saved for really big rivalry games at night. Also, this stadium is one of the largest in the world (I think the 4th largest) at 106,000.
That's always hilarious, they were fucking with Michigan big time LMAO That was just a normal Penn st/Michigan game, not a playoff game or anything. That's how we roll in the B1G
The crowd gets loud (especially on 3rd downs) because they know they can effect the game. They disrupt the verbal communication between the QB and all 10 other offensive players. The play calls and adjustments get sent in to the QB by the coach on each play . If an offense doesn't convert on 3rd down they typically punt the ball away to the opponent on 4th down to push the other team far down the field. Instead of giving them a short field.
The years that are on the sides represents their undefeated, conference championship and NATIONAL Championship years. Including 2012, in which was not a championship or a undefeated season but to recognize the team after what happened during the Sandusky Scandal and that the team was not allowed to be in bowl games (Almost the Death Penalty of the NCAA) that year but for the players that stayed at Penn State and did not transfer out of the University and Football team.
I think that stadium holds 101,000 or somewhere in that ballpark. This is Penn state’s white out game. It is a special game for the fan base. And it is definitely a loud environment.
The "White Out" game doesn't require for Penn State fans to wear anything specific other than it has to be white. White t-shirt, white jersey, whatever it is..just make sure you wear white. Opposing team fans, if they have a ticket obviously don't wear white. That college stadium holds over 106,000 people.
What you see here is how the crowd is so loud that the opposing team can't hear the quarterback. I live an hour and a half away from this stadium and going to Penn State games are a ritual for many in my area.
I don’t know if anyone told you but the away team always wears white in college football. Penn States players are wearing blue in this game despite the “White Out.”
The more noise the crowd makes the harder the opposing team can hear the quarterback yell out plays which causes someone on the offense to move to soon and that’s a penalty called a false start. The noise can also cause the quarterback to take too much time trying to get their team to hear and therefore causes the play clock to wind down to zero which is a delay of game penalty.
They’re just called Penn State. This is a “Whiteout” game. It’s once a year, at night versus a normally high ranked opponent. This stadium hold 106,572 people. Welcome to Happy Valley!!!
The University of Michigan does this too. It is called a Maize Out. Everyone in Michigan Stadium wearing Maize. Michigan Stadium is also the biggest stadium in college football. Holding 115,000 people. These are typical games
My kids go to Penn State now. Just as fun as the game is the tailgating before you go into the stadium. Sometimes too much fun where you never make it in.
Penn State also does a Stripe Out where they alternate sections of the stadium uniformly in team colors,blue and white. It's usually during the day though
They entire endzone that Michigan started in was the Student Zone. Tickets exclusively for the students of the university. That's the loudest side. It's like the ultras in soccer. You asked how many people were there. On game day at Penn State, the town becomes the 3rd most populated city in the state.
The stadiums like at Penn State (you are watching), Michigan (the opponents), Ohio State, Tennessee have 110,000 fans at their games. Yes, college football is crazy.
The Penn State game in the beginning is a specific game for them, obviously called the white out game. Its an annual event, and its usually the biggest tailgate event of the year for PSU. So tickets are often sold out far in advance, so there will be little to none opposing fans
That is a rivalry game between Penn state and Michigan, the is one of the "white out" game, to intimate the other team. The stadium is is named Beaver stadium. It holds about 105,000 people.
I have friend who went to Penn state and was at this game and had short term hearing damage afterwards. This is probably the loudest outdoor crowd at a college game ever broadcasted on television
The stadium officially holds 106,500 or so… but I’ve been there when a record crowd of over 110,000 filled every nook and cranny… including standing room on the observation areas!
This is why college football in the states is the premiere sport for a lot of us. It's just a different vibe than any other sport. This is considered a 'White out' which is for big night games at Penn State and as a fan of the Ohio State Buckeyes, who have to go play here, this is always a game we fear in the Big Ten.
This is a once a season ‘white out’ game with different opponents. Penn State team has 2 other Pennsylvania state college teams they occasionally play….Pitt/University of Pittsburgh in the western side and Temple University Philadelphia in the eastern side. Beaver stadium holds 105,000 one of the larger college stadiums in the US.
Penn State Nittany Lions team colors are blue and white. Each team only plays about ½ dozen home games each year. It's not just students, but alumni will also help fill the stands, as well as regular fans. Penn State's Beaver Stadium is the second largest in the US, with over 106,500 seats.
The opening was Gold ! Wow the Pennsylvania state team is pure gold .for college football junkies like me ..never has Penn state been called that ..thank you ..I'm using it now
I grew up in State College a little over 2 miles away from the stadium....and if you step outside and listen you can hear the crowd yelling during big moments
In the beginning when you said a thousand, you were a little bit off. At beaver stadium, home of the penn state nittany lions, has a capacity of over 106,000 porple
I live less then 4 miles from Beaver Stadium and if the winds are right i can sit outside and hear the roar of the crowd on night games like this, and listen to the distant rumble of the fireworks every time Penn State scores.
FYI , Michigan's stadium is the 3rd largest in the world. Has seating for 107,000 but standing capacity can bring it up to 117,000. Think Penn and Tennessee are almost as big.
You guys don't understand "school spirit". I graduated high school in 1966 and I still support my school's team. The stands include students alumni and fans.
Just a regular season game against a big rival. I think there were 107,000+ there for this one and so loud that Michigan could not hear their quarterback call out signals to start the play--so they had to call a timeout (to avoid a "delay of game" penalty) before any plays were called--unheard of.
Some games will have a theme Black out or White out etc would be pretty common. Where everbody wears a certain color I wouldnt say those are normal stadium sizes. But major schools generally have massive stadiums bigger than some of our Pro teams
Every team has 2 main colors, one for home and one for away. Fans wear either their school clothing or at least color coordinate to match. Lots of fans wear jerseys as well.
Here's some tips. 1. Just call Pennsylvania State "Penn State". 2. The "Whiteout" is a Penn State game that happens every year, and is usually done against a high-ranked team or rival. It's nationally televised, and it's at night. 3. No, this is not a championship game. Simply a regular season game on a random Saturday in the fall.
While I haven’t been to a Primer League game we have Primer League level passion for University Athletics. Beaver Stadium is one of several 100,000 thousand seat venues.
It is called a WHITE OUT and done for Night games against the Ohio State and Michigan. I am OREGON DUCK fan and they will be doing this for us also.This will be Oregon , USC, Washington and U.C.L.A.' first season as New Members in the BIG 10 Conference. The PAC-12 imploded.
This is Beaver stadium in State College Pennsylvania yes that is the name of the town. Capacity is a little over 106,000. This is known as the White Out and it is to sync out the other team. The team is known as Penn State.
It was definitely not a “cup final” but it was a regular season conference game. Penn State’s “white out” games is when all fans wear all white and go belligerent. This was a wild game due to them forcing Ichigan Uni to take a time out due to how loud the crowd was on the first snap. So loud that the entire offense couldn’t hear the QB’s call for the ball to snap.
I’m a Michigan fan and it’s even nerve racking watching it live it’s literally defining on the field. Crowds get so loud to the point where talking is impossible before plays so teams that are struggling with crowd noise will switch to hand signals to hike the ball instead of the qb saying anything. Crowd noise can affect a game in these ways usually: delay of game, false starts and frustrating communication errors, which will frustrate the hell out of the head coaches because those penalties are considered small league undisciplined mistakes but there’s nothing that they can do sometimes when crowd noise prevents any form of communication.
In their national championship years I do not think they did every home game as a white-out. I was a casual observer playing on another team back then so I had only passing knowledge.
the loud crowd forced them to call time outs... to put it into perspective, the (pro Football) NFL Kansas City Chiefs Arrowhead Stadium (now called GEHA Stadium) is the loudest open stadium in the world. They have reached 142 decibels. That is louder than standing next to a jet taking off, and our CDC (Center for Disease Control) says this noise level is "painful and dangerous". You will leave with your ears ringing and you are kinda confused and buzzed the rest of the night. I love it!
Center couldn't hear quarterback to hike ball an time delay five yard loss. This is a regular game Michigan vs Penn st. A rival game. These colleges passed out to students get first bib on tickets. So a college that has sixty thousand students they can sell tickets to these games.
This is the annual White Out game held at Penn State each year. It’s their most famous game. This stadium is the second biggest stadium in North America. What you are watching is a game from the beginning of the season, NOT a finals game. There are currently approximately 47K students that attend classes at this campus alone and Penn State has a total of 22 campuses. The fans you see here are mostly students, alumni and their families. WE ARE!!
Michigan Stadium (The Big House), Ohio Stadium (Ohio State) and Beaver Stadium (Penn State) are the 3 biggest stadiums in the country and the most toughest stadiums in College Football. Including Texas Tech (which is not part of the Big 10 conference)
Every game is this full because there’s only 13 of them so they are all HUGE games and there’s no playoffs so you have to win every game 😂 (until this year)
I was at this game!!! The Penn State White Out game is a big deal, tickets are hard to get/expensive (if you're not a student with a ticket or season ticket holder.) There are thousands more people outside tailgating without tickets (attendance inside is about 110,000.) Some people are there in giant RVs most of the week! Lol! It was a tradition that started when the students all wore white shirts (something they all had) to show support and then it was for the whole stadium. There are lots of similar traditions now in other schools but the Penn State one has some sort of magic in the atmosphere. It is thrilling to be there, you can actually feel the excitement physically. It's something that I wish everyone could experience once in their lifetime! Btw, they are chanting "We Are Penn State." Another tradition that is rumored to have started in 1948 when a school didn't want Penn State to bring black players to the Cotton Bowl. And the team said, "we are Penn State, there will be no negotiation about this."
It’s called the white out game everyone wears white weather they bring themselves like that or the stadium will provide white shirts. And it usually exceeds the capacity of the stadium which is usually 107k on the white out week can reach 110k-113k
110,000 fans. The stadium capacity is 107,000, but PSU shoves 110,000+ into Beaver Stadium for the Whiteout. Best college football environment every year. The dates that y’all asked about in the beginning are years that Penn State won a national championship
Oh Michigan (in white) had their backs to the Penn States Student Sections which has been known to be the greatest Student Sections of College Football. The one reason is that THE NOISE THAT THEY Produce. When your an opposing QB trying to callouts, you will barley hear your self or your teammates.
I was at this game. It was my senior year in the student section. This place was so loud I can’t emphasize this enough. Amazing experience and hope one day you two can experience THE PENN STATE WHITE OUT! WE ARE!! 🔵⚪️🔵⚪️ 🦁
To put into perspective 8 if the 10 largest stadiums in the world are college football stadiums. Just a crowd there to see athletes who up until recently, didn't even make any money to play.
Even with our team Fresno State, we'll have whiteout games where everybody wears white or blackout games too where everybody wears black. It just depends on the night whatever they set it for
Brits always ask "Is this a special game?" Nope just ah Saturday in the fall.
Yeah every game for college is like this not to mention its normal to cook out and have company over for each game at your house as well.
Fridays are high school football. Saturdays are College football. Sundays (and sometimes Mondays and Thursdays) are NFL professional football.
I prefer College football and my team/alumni is only found on ESPN 3 or up, if found televised on cable at all.

Well they actually did it to avoid a delay a game penalty because the play clock ran out.

It’s supposed to be a night game against the biggest time, but snake ass Fox always puts the big games on their Big Noon Kickoff.
Was against the best rival (OSU or Michigan) every year until FOX got their grubby little hands on it and fucked it all up.
All because of the scarcity of football. Only 12 regular season games per year. Half of which (6 or 7) are usually home. When you put that into perspective it's so special because you only get a few of these games per year to cherish these moments.

In the first half, time outs aren't nearly as valued. But it is still pretty nuts to see it in the first play. 😆
I was SO pissed man
State College, where the Penn State Main Campus is located, becomes the 3rd largest city in Pennsylvania when they play a home game at Beaver Stadium. It's really hard to put into words how big College Football is and the traditions that are behind it all.
Try living there
This is just your average NCAA football weekend during the season!
We need to fly these people out to the US and have them experience all of this in person, it takes it up an entire new level

It is called a WHITE OUT and done for Night games against the Ohio State and Michigan. I am OREGON DUCK fan and they will be doing this for us also.This will be Oregon , USC, Washington and U.C.L.A.' first season as New Members in the BIG 10 Conference. The PAC-12 imploded.
this is a regular season game. every game in college football is important if you want to make it to the playoffs
This is Beaver stadium in State College Pennsylvania yes that is the name of the town. Capacity is a little over 106,000. This is known as the White Out and it is to sync out the other team. The team is known as Penn State.
The energy/size of the biggest soccer game in Europe - that's the vibe every single fall Saturday all across America
This was just a regular season game not a cup final. If I remember correctly there were over 110,000 people at that game. This is a big rivalry game.
It was definitely not a “cup final” but it was a regular season conference game. Penn State’s “white out” games is when all fans wear all white and go belligerent. This was a wild game due to them forcing Ichigan Uni to take a time out due to how loud the crowd was on the first snap. So loud that the entire offense couldn’t hear the QB’s call for the ball to snap.
Man the energy in that stadium was crazy
Love seeing other countries react to college football. Doesn’t matter what school. Just makes me feel American
The Penn State Stadium holds 108,000 fans, and every game sells out.
This is a normal game, the dates are national championships. You should see the Big House at the U of Michigan, 107,000 + screaming fans.
That’s 110,000 + people in there. The white out is like nothing you will EVER experience in ANY other sport. This is next level. WE ARE!
Not only is the opposing team nervous so are little boys everywhere. 😂
I’m a Michigan fan and it’s even nerve racking watching it live it’s literally defining on the field. Crowds get so loud to the point where talking is impossible before plays so teams that are struggling with crowd noise will switch to hand signals to hike the ball instead of the qb saying anything. Crowd noise can affect a game in these ways usually: delay of game, false starts and frustrating communication errors, which will frustrate the hell out of the head coaches because those penalties are considered small league undisciplined mistakes but there’s nothing that they can do sometimes when crowd noise prevents any form of communication.
In their national championship years I do not think they did every home game as a white-out. I was a casual observer playing on another team back then so I had only passing knowledge.
Michigan is a top team every year, this game is a big rivalry. The fans do this at every game.
the loud crowd forced them to call time outs... to put it into perspective, the (pro Football) NFL Kansas City Chiefs Arrowhead Stadium (now called GEHA Stadium) is the loudest open stadium in the world. They have reached 142 decibels. That is louder than standing next to a jet taking off, and our CDC (Center for Disease Control) says this noise level is "painful and dangerous". You will leave with your ears ringing and you are kinda confused and buzzed the rest of the night. I love it!
Nothing sweeter than going into a wild ruckus environment and shutting everyone up!
Center couldn't hear quarterback to hike ball an time delay five yard loss. This is a regular game Michigan vs Penn st. A rival game. These colleges passed out to students get first bib on tickets. So a college that has sixty thousand students they can sell tickets to these games.
You need to see Nathan’s Stadium at the University Of Tennessee when the stadium is checkerboarded.
This is the annual White Out game held at Penn State each year. It’s their most famous game. This stadium is the second biggest stadium in North America. What you are watching is a game from the beginning of the season, NOT a finals game. There are currently approximately 47K students that attend classes at this campus alone and Penn State has a total of 22 campuses. The fans you see here are mostly students, alumni and their families. WE ARE!!
These are team colors probably. In baseball "White" version of the team uniform is for Home Games "Grey/Dark) is for away games.
It’s around 110k and this isn’t a cup final, just a local derby vs two schools
Actually, it was really normal for a regular game in terms of attendance.
Michigan Stadium (The Big House), Ohio Stadium (Ohio State) and Beaver Stadium (Penn State) are the 3 biggest stadiums in the country and the most toughest stadiums in College Football. Including Texas Tech (which is not part of the Big 10 conference)
Every game is this full because there’s only 13 of them so they are all HUGE games and there’s no playoffs so you have to win every game 😂 (until this year)
I drive to this stadium from New York City to watch the games. No other atmosphere can compare
I was at this game!!! The Penn State White Out game is a big deal, tickets are hard to get/expensive (if you're not a student with a ticket or season ticket holder.)
There are thousands more people outside tailgating without tickets (attendance inside is about 110,000.) Some people are there in giant RVs most of the week! Lol!
It was a tradition that started when the students all wore white shirts (something they all had) to show support and then it was for the whole stadium. There are lots of similar traditions now in other schools but the Penn State one has some sort of magic in the atmosphere. It is thrilling to be there, you can actually feel the excitement physically. It's something that I wish everyone could experience once in their lifetime!
Btw, they are chanting "We Are Penn State." Another tradition that is rumored to have started in 1948 when a school didn't want Penn State to bring black players to the Cotton Bowl. And the team said, "we are Penn State, there will be no negotiation about this."
We love our college football. It's how we spend our Saturdays.
Most ranked college games have a feel close to this but the whiteout does stand a cut above the rest.
It’s called the white out game everyone wears white weather they bring themselves like that or the stadium will provide white shirts. And it usually exceeds the capacity of the stadium which is usually 107k on the white out week can reach 110k-113k
110,000 fans. The stadium capacity is 107,000, but PSU shoves 110,000+ into Beaver Stadium for the Whiteout. Best college football environment every year. The dates that y’all asked about in the beginning are years that Penn State won a national championship
Oh Michigan (in white) had their backs to the Penn States Student Sections which has been known to be the greatest Student Sections of College Football. The one reason is that THE NOISE THAT THEY Produce. When your an opposing QB trying to callouts, you will barley hear your self or your teammates.
I was at this game. It was my senior year in the student section. This place was so loud I can’t emphasize this enough. Amazing experience and hope one day you two can experience THE PENN STATE WHITE OUT! WE ARE!! 🔵⚪️🔵⚪️ 🦁
There is at least 10 stadiums on a Saturday filled too capacity like that stadiums that hold 100000+
To put into perspective 8 if the 10 largest stadiums in the world are college football stadiums. Just a crowd there to see athletes who up until recently, didn't even make any money to play.
The record attendance at Penn State's stadium is 110,889
We have several college stadiums over 100,000. And they sell out every game.
Even with our team Fresno State, we'll have whiteout games where everybody wears white or blackout games too where everybody wears black. It just depends on the night whatever they set it for
