My guess is that the stadium will be rocking louder than ever.  It'll be a return to normalcy for the fans; a chance to move on.  And as somebody else mentioned, the players will look at the season as if they have 12 bowl games on the schedule.

Agree, and It will be packed. OHIO will be up against a talented team and will need to play their A game if they want to have a shot at winning.

Certainly if you've played - and probably if you've watched - an appreciable number of games, you might agree that it is just plain impossible to predict with any consistency how pumped or flat a team will be for any game. 

I put the Ohio-Penn State game in that impossible-to-predict category.  Sure, the Lions could start out roaring.  Or they could have to force themselves to snarl now and then.  Or, thanks to a rush of adrenalin, they could start out roaring and then fade by the second quarter.  Even in the locker room or during pre-game warmups, players might not know how they will perform after the opening kickoff.
