Nittany Nation

Nittany Nation is the student cheering section supporting the Penn State Nittany Lions men's basketball team. Founded during the 2003/04 season, the section is present at the Bryce Jordan Center for every home game with its name on the court along the sideline. ESPN and the Big Ten Network have featured the section during live game action.
Until 2007, the organization was known as "Nittwits."
== Organization ==
Nittany Nation stands courtside surrounding three sides of the floor at the Jordan Center where they cheer for the team. All Penn State basketball student season ticket holders are members of the organization and receive a white Nike t-shirt〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Penn State Live: Event promotes sales of basketball student tickets )〕 to wear during games as a part of their efforts to distract the opposing team and provide a home court advantage. Students occasionally wear blue and white scarves to complement their t-shirt.
''Forty Minutes'' is the official gameday publication of Nittany Nation, providing information about the Nittany Lions basketball team and their opponent on any particular night.
The Ohio State editions for both 2005 and 2006 were criticized by Buckeyes fans for being unsportsmanlike due to references regarding allegations that several notable athletes received illegal donations during their college career.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The Columbus Dispatch: Penn State fans’ newsletter pokes fun at OSU athletics )
During the 2007/08 season, participation in the Nation dramatically increased, with over 5700 students attending an ESPN-televised contest against Ohio State.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The Daily Collegian: Proceeds from game will benefit Thon )
Nittany Nation also plans away game bus trips to both conference and non-conference gymnasiums. Past excursions include visits to Seton Hall, Michigan, St. Joseph's, Penn, and Virginia Tech. Over 30 busloads of students were brought to Madison Square Garden to watch the Nittany Lions capture the 2009 National Invitation Tournament championship.
