I’ll be honest, Penn State’s 39-38 defeat against Ohio State was the toughest loss to accept in quite a while.
Perhaps I am just naive, but everything seemed to be in place. Of course, the Nittany Lions weren’t without their faults, but this seemed like a complete team. One that was stupidly successful last season, but yet returned so many players with “unfinished” business. Andrew Nelson said prior to the season that there were too many guys in the locker room that said they weren’t leaving Penn State without a National Title, and by God, I believed it.
