Kirk Herbstreit loves going to Happy Valley. Every year, the college football analyst has nothing but high praise for the environment and atmosphere on Penn State’s campus.

Herbstreit praised the Nittany Lions student section again this week, calling it “the best student section” in all of college football. That’s a pretty high compliment, especially from an Ohio State alum.

But Herbstreit didn’t have only praise for the Penn State fans and students this week, he also sent a message. He wants everyone to create an electric atmosphere from the start of College GameDay (9 a.m. ET) until the final gun sounds.

The College GameDay crew will be on campus Saturday, previewing Saturday’s top 10 clash between No. 4 Ohio State and No. 9 Penn State. Herbstreit will also be on the prime time call with play-by-play broadcaster Chris Fowler.

Here was Herbstreit’s message to Penn State fans and students. I’m guessing he won’t be let down.
