I guess it only took the desire for the prestigious Land Grant Trophy to finally get Penn State into the Big Ten win column.
The Nittany Lions traveled to East Lansing on Saturday in danger of going 0-7 in conference play, which would have surpassed the nadir set by the supremely forgettable 2003 Nittany Lions, who also lost their first six conference games before beating (cough) Indiana in Beaver Stadium. They went to Spartan Stadium the following week and lost 41-7.
This time, Dani Dennis-Sutton and the Penn State defense showed up (after taking their first snap off), the special teams blocked another punt, and the offense did what it has had a surprisingly difficult time of doing this season and gave the damn ball to Fatman.
