He's still a year away from answering the big question, but Saquon Barkley already looks like an NFL running back. One in particular comes to mind right away: Le'Veon Bell.
It’s hard enough not to get emotional experiencing your last football season as a senior under normal circumstances, but this season was anything but normal.
A trophy wouldn't have given us anything we didn't have before the Rose Bowl. I hope the tradition we carry into next season is this: It's great to love Penn State, no matter the final score.
But the truth is that I’ll be there in spirit somewhere — standing, fidgeting, nervously swaying, joyously jumping, etc. — from the opening kickoff to the final play of the game. And after it’s over, after the clock hits triple zeroes and the whole wild ride of the 2016 season has concluded and it’s time to exit those gates, I hope that all you Penn Staters fortunate enough to be in that stadium will have the chance to walk outside, across the parking plot plains, look back one last time at that iconic neon-lit sign, and whisper out into the California night — We got back, man. We got back.
Our staff writers try their hand at picking the winner of this afternoon's anticipated Rose Bowl clash between No. 5 Penn State and No. 9 USC in Pasadena.
