It seemed as though Penn State had used up its good fortune in early 2010 when the Nittany Lions pulled out a late win over LSU in the Capital One Bowl. After gaining some national respect with a victory on the field, the Lions couldn’t manage a win on the recruiting trail in the past month.
At the time, Joe Paterno still wanted to enjoy his team’s bowl win. In his season wrap-up press conference the day after Penn State edged LSU 19-17 in the Capital One Bowl, questions naturally began to turn to the 2010 season.
It's now official: Penn State will play the defending national champions in 246 days.
Former Indiana basketball coach Bob Knight will return to the state this spring to be the commencement speaker at Trine University.
