Whether the Tigers win or lose this weekend, it probably won’t have anything to do with Penn State’s whiteout crowd. We don’t just know what a hostile crowd environment is like–we’ve been the hostile crowd ourselves. One of the biggest narratives coming from Penn State fans this week has been that Auburn football has no idea what’s coming and will be totally unprepared for the whiteout.
