One fan received the Christmas surprise of a lifetime after he learned he'd be going to the Rose Bowl.

Junior tight end Mike Gesicki has opted to play another season at Penn State, he said in a statement this evening.

While Joe Moorhead and Brent Pry deservedly get the lion's share of kudos for the team's success this season, Penn State wouldn't be heading to Pasadena without Matt Limegrover and his revamped offensive line.

The rally, sponsored by Penn State's Alumni Association, will be held on Jan. 1 in the L.A. LIVE area of Los Angeles.
