The fact that anybody, myself included, is surprised by what the Penn State wrestling team did this weekend, particularly from Friday on, could be considered by insulting by some. Like being surprised that a fish can swim, or that a bear shits in the woods.

Saturday’s victory, capped by a miraculous moment from the aforementioned Mr. Nickal, was Penn State’s seventh in the last eight seasons and seventh in nine year under Sanderson.
