BOWL RECAPS1923 ROSE: January 1, 1923Penn State fought a gallant fight, but Southern

California was just too strong in a 14-3 victory in the 1923Rose Bowl, the Nittany Lions’ first post-season game. TheTrojans bounced back from an early 3-0 Penn State leadto post the win.

The 29-member Penn State travel party departedState College by train on December 19 and, after stops inChicago and the Grand Canyon, arrived in Pasadena onChristmas Eve. The morning of the game, the team tookin the Tournament of Roses Parade, then returned to theirhotel. The Lions left in several taxi cabs at 11 a.m. for thedrive to the Rose Bowl, but as the 2:15 p.m. kickoffapproached, the team was mired in post-parade traffic.Only after the cabbies drove over the lawns of local resi-dents did the Penn State contingent finally reach the RoseBowl.

When the team arrived, they found kickoff hadalready been delayed by 10 minutes. Penn State coachHugo Bezdek and USC coach “Gloomy Gus” Hendersonalmost came to blows as the Lions’ skipper successfullylobbied game officials for additional warmup time. Thegame finally started an hour late and ended in moonlight,with sportswriters lighting matches in order to finish theirstories. Even with the 60-minute delay, many of the 43,000spectators did not reach their seats until the second quar-ter.

Penn State took an early 3-0 lead on Mike Palm’s 20-yard drop-kick field goal, but Roy “Bullet” Baker rushed for123 yards and one touchdown for the Trojans and theLions were held to five first downs and 104 yards. PennState’s share of the proceeds — $21,349.64 — wasdirected toward the $2 million Emergency Building Fundand in particular the construction of Varsity Hall (now IrvinHall).

1948 COTTON: January 1, 1948Penn State climaxed a 25-year climb back to national

prominence with a 13-13 tie against Southern Methodist inthe Cotton Bowl. Unheralded quarterback Elwood Petchelmatched SMU All-American Doak Walker yard-for-yard asthe Lions rallied from 13-0 back and had several chancesto win the game.

Petchel threw for scores in the second and third quar-ters and nearly had a third at the end of the game, whena defender tipped away the ball at the last second. In thethird quarter the Lions tied the game at 13 and EdCzekaj’s PAT kick appeared to be good, but was ruled nogood by a hesitating referee. The Lions outgained SMU258 to 206, but two lost fumbles hurt their chances.Petchel completed seven of 15 passes for 165 yards andtwo touchdowns. Fran Rogel gained 95 yards on 25 car-ries, easily out-rushing Walker.

Because two Lions, Wally Triplett and DennieHoggard, were African-American, none of the Dallashotels would allow the team to stay in their facilities, forc-ing the squad to stay at a Naval Air Station 14 miles fromDallas.

Coach Bob Higgins’ squad finished 9-0-1, won its firstLambert Trophy and was No. 4 in the Associated Presspoll.

1959 LIBERTY: December 19, 1959Coach Rip Engle took the advice of veteran bowl par-

ticipant Bobby Dodd of Georgia Tech and installed somenew plays to keep his Penn State team busy for the 1959Liberty Bowl. That advice paid off as Penn State scoredon a fake field goal play to upend Alabama, 7-0, in theinaugural Liberty Bowl in Philadelphia. The play came inthe final seconds of the first half with Galen Hall passing18 yards to Roger Kochman for the score. Game condi-tions at Municipal Stadium (later renamed JFK Stadium)were less than ideal and Penn State’s defense made thepoints stand up.

Directed by quarterback Richie Lucas, the MaxwellAward winner and Heisman Trophy runnerup, the Lions’offense completely dominated the game, outgaining CoachBear Bryant’s Crimson Tide 319 to 131, including a 278 to104 edge on the ground. The victory was the first bowl winfor the Nittany Lions, improving their post-season mark to1-1-1. Penn State has not been below the .500 mark inbowl games since the historic win.

1960 LIBERTY: December 17, 1960Penn State’s second team — the “Reddie” unit —

proved the value of depth as the Nittany Lions rolled overOregon, 41-12, for their second straight Liberty Bowl winin as many years. Twenty-one unanswered points in thesecond quarter gave the Lions a lead they would not relin-quish on a cold, windy day in Philadelphia.

Oregon’s long first-quarter TD drive produced an earlylead, but quarterback Dick Hoak and his second unitmarched for two scores, while quarterback Galen Hall ledanother in the second quarter for a 21-6 halftime bulge.The Ducks scored in the third quarter, but again theReddie unit produced three TDs in the fourth quarter.Hoak enjoyed an outstanding day on defense as well asrunning and passing on offense. He ran for 61 yards andtwo scores on nine carries; and completed three of fivepasses for 67 yards and a TD strike.

It was the running game that was the difference as theLions outgained Oregon 301 to 187 and 420 to 360 over-all. The 420 yards of total offense was a school bowlrecord until 1975. The Lions also forced four turnovers.

1961 GATOR: December 30, 1961Penn State justified its selection as the Lambert

Trophy winner with a decisive 30-15 victory over GeorgiaTech, notching its third straight bowl victory in as manyyears in its first post-season game in the South. Despitethree early-season losses, the Lions downed the YellowJackets, who had allowed only 4.4 points a game, register-ing four shutouts.

Galen Hall threw three touchdown passes as PennState rallied from a 9-0 deficit. The Nittany Lion defenderscaused five turnovers and took advantage of a misfiredfake punt and an interception to put the game away with10 fourth-quarter points. All-America end Dave Robinsonmade a stunning play midway through the third quarterand with the Lions leading 14-9, leaping over two blockersand forcing quarterback Stan Gann to fumble, whichRobinson recovered at the Jackets’ 35-yard line. Hallstruck quickly, tossing a 35-yard scoring strike to JuniorPowell.

The Jackets carried the day statistically (outgainingPenn State 412 to 313), but special teams play for PennState was critical as Yellow Jacket errors and a superbLion punting game (eight punts for a 41.0 yard average)helped offset Georgia Tech’s rushing game. Hall wassuperb, hitting 12 of 22 passes for 175 yards and threetouchdowns to earn game MVP honors.

1962 GATOR: December 29, 1962Penn State posted a 9-1 regular-season in 1962, los-

ing by three points at Army, and was ranked No. 9 in thefinal Associated Press poll, earning its second straightLambert Trophy. But, the Lions were snubbed from a NewYear’s Day bowl and accepted an invitation to play in theGator Bowl for the second consecutive year, facingunranked, 6-4 Florida.

The Lions managed only eight first downs and 147yards and lost to the Gators, 17-7. Except for a 76-yardtouchdown march culminated by Pete Liske’s one-yard TDrun in the second period, Rip Engle’s squad didn’t slightlyresemble the offensive terror that had swept its last sixgames, scoring 164 points in the process.

Florida quarterback Tommy Shannon completedseven of nine passes for 79 yards and two scores andmixed his plays to befuddle the big Penn State defense.The Gators added the longest field goal in Gator Bowl his-tory and forced five turnovers to snap the Lions’ two-gamebowl winning streak.

The best experience of this post-season may havebeen the squad’s trip to the White House where they gavePresident John F. Kennedy a Nittany Lion statue. TheLions practiced for more than a week at the U.S. NavalAcademy before encountering difficult travel fromHarrisburg to Jacksonville, having to bus to Pittsburgh andland in Orlando due to poor weather conditions inPennsylvania and Florida.

1967 GATOR: December 30, 1967Penn State led for 59 minutes and 45 seconds, but

Florida State rallied from a 17-0 deficit and kicked a fieldgoal with 15 seconds remaining to earn a 17-17 tie in theGator Bowl.

The Nittany Lions did all their scoring in the first half,thanks largely to quarterback Tom Sherman. He kicked a27-yard field goal in the first period and then threw touch-down passes to Jack Curry and Ted Kwalick for a 17-0bulge at halftime.

Early in the second half, the Lions stopped theSeminoles on downs at the Penn State five-yard line.Three rushes by Charlie Pittman appeared to give PennState a first down, but the measurement came up six inch-es short. In his first bowl game as head coach, JoePaterno decided to go for it, but Sherman’s fourth-downsneak was short. Florida State quarterback KimHammond tossed a 20-yard scoring pass to Ron Sellerssoon after to swing the momentum. Hammond was 37-of-53 passing for 362 yards, with four interceptions, whileSellers had 14 receptions for 145 yards.

After the game, Paterno told the Philadelphia Inquirer,“I may be rationalizing, but in the long run that fourth-downcall may be the best thing I ever did for Penn State foot-ball.”

1969 ORANGE: January 1, 1969“There was no way Penn State could win...The last twominutes were pure unadulterated insanity.”— PittsburghPress

The Nittany Lions posted perhaps the school’s mostdramatic victory with an unbelievable 15-14 win over sixth-ranked Kansas in the 1969 Orange Bowl. In the final 1:16seconds of the game, Penn State turned what appearedto be a Jayhawk victory into an incredible cap to an 11-0season and the No. 2 national ranking.

With Kansas leading, 14-7, with 10 minutes to play,Jayhawk coach Pepper Rodgers passed on a field goalfrom the Penn State five-yard line and running back JohnRiggins was stopped on fourth-and-one by Paul and PeteJohnson, keeping the Lions within a touchdown.

The game took on legendary status in the last twominutes after Penn State was forced to punt. The Lionshad all three timeouts left and used them well. After tack-le Mike Reid dropped quarterback Bobby Douglass for 13yards in losses on consecutive plays of Kansas’ finaloffensive series, Penn State helped its cause when NealSmith partially blocked the punt, providing one last oppor-tunity from the 50 yard-line with 1:16 left. QuarterbackChuck Burkhart connected with Bob Campbell on a 47-yard pass to the Kansas three, just as Kansas runningback Donnie Shanklin was being announced as the gameMVP. After fullback Tom Cherry tried the middle twice,Burkhart faked a handoff to Charlie Pittman and carriedaround the left end for the touchdown with just eight sec-onds remaining.

Never one fond of ties, Joe Paterno elected to go forthe win, but Burkhart’s two-point pass to Campbell wasknocked away and the Kansas players began to celebratewith fans who were coming onto the field. But, a penaltyhad been called on the Jayhawks for 12 men on the fieldand, as game films would later reveal, Kansas had 12 menon the field for four plays, including Burkhart’s touchdown.Presented with a second opportunity, this time from theone-and-a-half-yard line, Campbell swept around the leftside and into the end zone for the scintillating 15-14 victo-ry as Penn State became the first Eastern school to winthe Orange Bowl since 1937.

1970 ORANGE: January 1, 1970If ever a defense won a bowl game, it happened in the

1970 Orange Bowl as Penn State repeatedly slammed thedoor on Missouri’s highly-touted offense for a 10-3 victory.It was a superlative performance by the Lion defenders asthey led Penn State to its second straight Orange Bowl vic-tory, its 22nd straight win and its 30th consecutive gamewithout defeat.

But, a second straight 11-0 campaign again earnedthe Lions the No. 2 national ranking, not their first NationalChampionship. Having already voted to play in the OrangeBowl, the fifth-ranked Lions saw No. 1 Ohio State lose toMichigan, leaving the winner between unbeatens Texasand Arkansas as the likely new No. 1. President RichardNixon was in attendance in Austin and after theLonghorns’ 15-14 win, declared Texas national champi-ons, much to the chagrin and outrage of Joe Paterno, hissquad and Nittany Lion fans.

With the controversy about Number One still beingdebated, the Nittany Lion defense was outstanding instopping the Big Eight champions. Nineteen times thepowerful Missouri offense got possession of the ball andnine times the Lion defenders forced a turnover, intercept-ing seven passes and recovering two fumbles. The seveninterceptions remain an Orange Bowl record, bettering thesix turned in by Georgia against TCU in the 1942 contest,as well as being tied for the second-highest ever for anybowl game.

All of Penn State’s scoring came within a 21-secondspan late in the first quarter, with Mike Reitz kicking a 29-yard field goal with 3:44 remaining and Chuck Burkhartpassing moments later to Lydell Mitchell for a 28-yardtouchdown. The second score was set up after All-American Mike Reid jarred the ball loose from Missouri’sJoe Moore on the kickoff and Mike Smith recovered thefumble. Burkhart completed 11 of 26 passes for 187 yardsto earn Most Valuable Back honors, while Reid was cho-sen Most Valuable Lineman.

Missouri connected on a 33-yard field goal late in thefirst half and reached the Penn State 14-yard line with1:42 to play. But, George Landis grabbed his second inter-ception of the game at the two and the Lions remainedunbeaten in their 30th straight game, tying the schoolmark set from 1920-22.

1972 COTTON: January 1, 1972Stung by a season-ending loss at Tennessee, Penn

State looked at the 1972 Cotton Bowl as an opportunityto redeem itself and make a statement to the collegefootball nation. With the No. 1 snub of 1969 not farremoved, the game with Texas would provide a greatopportunity for the Nittany Lions to earn some nationalrespect. In what some considered a “must” win for therising national powerhouse, Penn State blitzed highly-touted Texas, 30-6, for its third straight major bowl victo-ry.

Neither team was able to do much in a sluggish firsthalf that wound up with Texas holding a 6-3 edge. TheLonghorns had moved the ball from their famedWishbone offense early in the contest, but the PennState defense began to take control as the game woreon. The second half was all Penn State. The Lions tookthe lead for the first time early in the third quarter afterCharlie Zapiec recovered a fumble at the Texas 41-yardline. A 19-yard run by Lydell Mitchell and a 19-yard passfrom John Hufnagel to tight end Bob Parsons helped theLions reach the Texas one. Mitchell followed a block byAll-American Dave Joyner for the game’s first touch-down.

The game-breaker came the next time the Lions gotthe ball. On second down from their 35-yard line,Hufnagel faked to Mitchell and lofted a pass to split endScott Skarzynski dashing alone down the right sidelinefor a 17-6 lead. Alberto Vitiello added two more fieldgoals and Hufnagel scored on a four-yard run, as theLions controlled the ball for 13 minutes in the fourthquarter.

Defensive end Bruce Bannon was voted theOutstanding Defensive Player-of-the-Game, although itwas a team effort that held the Longhorns to 242 yards

and without a touchdown for the first time in 80 games.Mitchell was an overwhelming choice as the game’sOutstanding Offensive Player, as the All-Americancapped his brilliant career with 146 yards in 27 carriesand one score.

“It is one of the greatest victories in Penn State his-tory,” stated a joyous Joe Paterno. “I don’t think we’veever had a game that we had to win more than this one.”

1972 SUGAR: December 31, 1972Penn State was matched against one of the nation’s

top teams in the 1972 Sugar Bowl on New Year’s Eve, andwhile battling No. 2 Oklahoma throughout the game, fell 14-0, snapping a three-game bowl win streak.

The game did not get off to a good start when the Lionslearned just hours before kickoff that leading rusher JohnCappelletti had a virus and a 102-degree temperature andwould be unable to play. Without Cappelletti’s ball-controlrunning, the defense spent a great deal of time on the field.As it turned out, the Lion defenders did a spectacular jobagainst one of the nation’s most explosive offenses, holdingthe Sooners’ Wishbone attack to just 14 points. Oklahomaout-gained Penn State 453 to 196, including 278 to 49 onthe ground, but the stingy Lion defense forced eight Soonerfumbles, five of which Penn State recovered.

Several weeks after the game, Oklahoma was discov-ered to have used two ineligible freshmen players and theNCAA forced the Sooners to forfeit the games the playershad participated in. Joe Paterno and school athletic officialsrefused to accept the win.

Prior to that revelation, Paterno accepted an offer tobecome the Boston Patriots’ head coach and general man-ager four days after the Sugar Bowl, but changed his mindthe following night.

1974 ORANGE: January 1, 1974For the third time in six seasons, Penn State found

itself in the Orange Bowl attempting to complete a perfectseason. And, as they did in the 1969 and 1970 OrangeBowls, the Nittany Lions rose to the occasion. LouisianaState provided stiff competition, but a hard-fought 16-9win over the Tigers put the finishing touches on PennState’s first 12-0 campaign.

The Tigers took the opening kickoff and quicklyscored on a three-yard run by Steve Rogers. The Liondefense made a few adjustments and LSU’s only otherpoints came on a safety when Penn State punter BrianMasella downed a bad snap in his own end zone in thethird quarter.

Chris Bahr got Penn State on the scoreboard with a44-yard field goal in the first quarter. The Nittany Lionsgrabbed control in the second period, sparked by ChuckHerd, who made a brilliant one-hand catch of a TomShuman pass on the LSU 20-yard line and ran it in to com-plete a memorable 72-yard score. The Lions continuedtheir surge moments later when Gary Hayman, thenation’s leading punt returner in 1973, returned a punt 36yards to the LSU 25-yard line. Heisman Trophy winnerJohn Cappelletti vaulted over from one yard out for a 16-7halftime edge.

Despite being one of only three unbeaten, untiedteams entering the bowls, Penn State was ranked No. 5 inthe Associated Press poll and the Sugar Bowl match-upbetween unbeatens Alabama and Notre Dame was beingtouted as the game for the national title.

1975 COTTON: January 1, 1975Penn State completed a 10-2 season with a record-

setting 41-20 victory over Southwest Conference champi-on Baylor in the Cotton Bowl. Joe Paterno’s Nittany Lionscame from behind for the fifth time in its 10 wins, erasinga 7-3 halftime deficit with a 38-point second-half explosionfor a Cotton Bowl record 41 points.

Quarterback Tom Shuman and fullback TomDonchez, the mainstays of the offense all season, led therecord-breaking efforts. Shuman completed 10 of 20passes for 226 yards and a touchdown and added 14yards and another score on the ground. Donchez carried25 times for 116 yards and a touchdown and caught fourpasses for 50 yards. Freshman Jimmy Cefalo also con-tributed greatly to the victory, rushing for 55 yards, catch-ing three passes for 102 yards and scoring two touch-downs.

It was a close game as the third quarter ended, withPenn State holding a 17-14 edge. Three straight scores—a three-yard run by Cefalo, a 33-yard field goal by ChrisBahr and a two-yard run by Shuman — gave the Lions aninsurmountable 34-14 lead. Shuman earned his second-straight post-season award, grabbing the OutstandingOffensive Player award as he led Penn State to what stillis a school bowl record 491 yards of total offense.

1975 SUGAR: December 31, 1975Penn State and Alabama made history in the first

Sugar Bowl played in the newly-constructed LouisianaSuperdome, with a capacity crowd of 75,212 on hand.The contest also was the first of four meetings betweenJoe Paterno and Paul “Bear” Bryant, two of only fiveDivision I-A coaches with at least 300 career wins.

The game was typical of the Nittany Lions’ 9-3 sea-son, featuring outstanding defense and kicking. Alabamamanaged the only touchdown of the game, a 14-yard runby Mike Stock in the third quarter, which was enough toallow the Tide to pull out a 13-6 victory.

Chris Bahr, the Lions’ record-setting placekicker,accounted for all of Penn State’s scoring with a 42-yardfield goal in the third period and a 37-yarder early in thefinal quarter. Alabama specialist Danny Ridgeway coun-tered Bahr’s boots with field goals of 25 and 28 yards.

Bahr’s first field goal with 4:33 left in the third quar-ter tied the game at 3-3, but Alabama came right backwith an 80-yard drive for what proved to be the winningtouchdown. The game wasn’t decided until Alabamastopped the Lions on a fourth-and-one try from the PennState 39-yard line with 1:19 to play.

1976 GATOR: December 27, 1976Meeting Notre Dame for the first time since 1928, a 3-

0 turnover deficit proved to be Penn State’s undoing as theIrish posted a 20-9 victory.

It was apparent in the early going that the teams wereevenly matched and breaks would be the determining fac-tor. After Penn State took an early 3-0 lead that NotreDame erased with a first-quarter touchdown, the Irishused a turnover and solid offense to outscore the Lions,13-0, in the second period, cruise to a 20-3 halftime leadand never relinquish their hold.

Penn State out-gained the Irish, 274-273, led by therushing tandem of Bob Torrey and Matt Suhey.Quarterback Chuck Fusina hit 14 of 33 passes for 118yards, including Penn State’s only touchdown, an eight-yard strike to Suhey in the fourth quarter. Jimmy Cefalomade five catches for 60 yards and had three carries for18 yards to earn Penn State Outstanding Player-of-the-Game honors.

exciting shootout between two of the nation’s finest teams,with Penn State winning the showdown against hometownArizona State, 42-30, to cap an 11-1 season.

The Lions won their first of six Fiesta Bowls (withouta loss), with an opportunistic kicking game, a grinding sec-ond-half running game, an alert defense and some bigplays by Jimmy Cefalo.

Penn State led, 17-14, at halftime despite being heldto 45 yards rushing. Joe Lally returned a blocked punt 21yards for the first Lion touchdown, the fifth score by thepunt return team in 1977. A 67-yard punt return by Cefalothen set up a 23-yard field goal by Matt Bahr. Penn Statescored the third quarter’s only touchdown and out-sluggedthe Devils, 18-16, in a furious fourth quarter, with MattSuhey’s two-yard TD run with three minutes left providingsome breathing room.

Steve Geise led all rushers with 111 yards, while BobTorrey added 107 on only nine carries, marking the onlytime Penn State has had two runners crack the centurymark in a bowl.

1979 SUGAR: January 1, 1979A goal-line stand by Alabama in the fourth quarter

was the key in depriving Penn State of its first nationalchampionship. The Lions, 11-0 during the regular-seasonand ranked first in the polls entering the Sugar Bowl in theLouisiana Superdome, twice came up short from insidethe one-yard line as No. 2 Alabama hung on for a 14-7 winand the national title.

In one of the greatest defensive games ever playedfor the national title, the hitting was ferocious on bothsides. Alabama posted the first half’s only score with eightseconds left, on a 30-yard pass from Jeff Rutledge toBruce Bolton, who made what appeared to be a diving,spectacular catch in the end zone for a 7-0 halftime lead.Photographs and video would later reveal the ball hadbounced on the turf before Bolton caught it.

The Lions capitalized midway through the third quarter.Pete Harris intercepted a Rutledge pass on the Alabama 48-yard line andChuck Fusina passed 17 yards to Scott Fitzkeeto tie the score. But, ‘Bama’s Lou Inker returned a punt 62yards to the Penn State 11 andMajor Ogilvie’s eight-yard TDrun gave the Tide a 14-7 lead later in the stanza.

With about seven minutes to play, Matt Millen forced afumble which Joe Lally recovered at the Alabama 19. Onsecond-and-goal at the six, Fusina hit Fitzkee near theflag, but as he turned to cross the goal line, Don McNealknocked him out two feet from the stripe. Matt Suhey’sdive on third down was six inches short and on fourthdown, Mike Guman was stopped short by Barry Kraussand the Tide defense in one of the memorable defensivestands in college football history. On Penn State’s finalpossession, the Nittany Lions drove to the Alabama 41-yard line, but the Tide defense held again to seal the win.

1979 LIBERTY: December 22, 1979Herb Menhardt’s 20-yard field goal with 18 seconds

remaining lifted Penn State to a 9-6 win over Tulane in the21st Annual Liberty Bowl in Memphis. The win was thefirst in a string of five consecutive bowl victories for theNittany Lions.

After a scoreless first quarter, the Penn State offensegot untracked early in the second period. QuarterbackFrank Rocco directed the Lions on a 13-play, 68-yard drivethat culminated with a 33-yard Menhardt field goal for a 3-0 lead. Rocco was starting for the first time in 1979, replac-ing 11-game starter Dayle Tate, who suffered a shoulderinjury in the Pittsburgh game earlier in the month. A 63-yard drive culminated in a 27-yard Menhardt trey later inthe period for a 6-0 halftime lead.

Tulane tied the game with a pair of fourth-quarter fieldgoals, the latter coming with less than three minutes to play.With just under 50 seconds left and the Lions at the 50, assis-tant coach Bob Phillips suggested a halfback option, whichworked to near perfection. Rocco pitched out to Joel Coles,who pulled up on a sweep around the left side and threw a39-yard pass to a wide open Tom Donovan, to set upMenhardt’s game-winner.

Penn State out-gained Tulane 337 to 202 and limitedthe Green Wave to minus-eight yards rushing. Matt Suheyposted a 19-carry, 112-yard day for the Lions.

1980 FIESTA: December 26, 1980Buoyed by a field goal in the final 10 seconds of the

first half, Penn State played a superb second half in a sat-isfying 31-19 victory over Ohio State in Fiesta Bowl X infront of a record crowd of 66,738. The contest remains theLions’ only bowl game against a Big Ten opponent.

After Curt Warner’s 64-yard touchdown run on thefirst play of the game, Ohio State used Art Schlichter’ssuper passing to grab a 19-7 lead before Herb Menhardt’s38-yard field goal with eight seconds left in the half madeit 19-10. Schlichter was 15-of-22 for 244 yards and threetouchdowns in the first half.

Like many Joe Paterno teams in bowl games, theLions made adjustments at the break and dominated thesecond half. On their first possession of the third quarter,Todd Blackledge directed a 75-yard drive, scoring fromthree yards to cut the lead to 19-17.

1982 FIESTA: January 1, 1982Penn State rode its rugged defense to a dominating

26-10 victory over Southern California in the first FiestaBowl game played on New Year’s Day. Making its sec-ond consecutive appearance in Tempe, Penn State heldthe Trojans to 60 yards rushing and only three offensivepoints in the win.

1983 SUGAR: January 1, 1983A mid-year loss to Alabama could have proven devas-

tating, but instead, Penn State rallied to win its last sixgames, rising to No. 2 in the polls, and garnering a nationaltitle matchup with unbeaten and No. 1 Georgia in the 1983Sugar Bowl. The Sugar Bowl had not been kind to PennState with the Lions going 0-3 in New Orleans, but on thisday those prior games were forgotten, as Penn Statedefeated the Bulldogs, 27-23, to post an 11-1 record andearn its first National Championship after several near-miss-es under Joe Paterno.

Penn State jumped to a 7-0 lead, scoring in the firstthree minutes of the game. On consecutive plays, ToddBlackledge drilled a 33-yard pass to Mike McCloskey andfound Gregg Garrity for 27 yards to the Georgia nine-yardline. Curt Warner’s two-yard run around left end gave theLions a lead they would not relinquish. Following a Georgiafield goal, treys of 38 and 45 yards by Nick Gancitano sand-wiched a nine-yard Warner TD run for a 20-3 lead with lessthan a minute left in the half.

The Bulldogs responded with just five seconds remain-ing in the half on a 10-yard TD pass to Herman Archie.Georgia then took the second-half kickoff and drove 69yards to score on HerschelWalker’s one-yard run, to cut themargin to 20-17.

With Warner bothered by leg cramps, the offensestruggled in the third period, but early in the fourth quarterBlackledge faked to Warner and threw a perfect 47-yardstrike to Garrity, who made a sensational diving catch in theend zone. The play, featured on the cover of SportsIllustrated, will forever be remembered as one of the glori-ous moments in Penn State history. A fumbled punt set upa Georgia touchdown with 4:54 to play, but the Lion defensestuffedWalker on the two-point try to make the score 27-23.With two minutes left, Blackledge found Garrity for a firstdown on third down and the Lions ran out the clock, hoist-ing Paterno on their shoulders with his right index fingerraised in another of the significant moments in Lion history.

“Penn State No. 1!” shouted long-time Nittany Lionradio announcer Fran Fisher to his audience, trying to beheard above the din of the delirious blue andwhite clad fanswho were finally able to celebrate a National Championship.

For the second consecutive bowl, Warner out-gainedthe Heisman Trophy winner, rushing for 117 yards on 18attempts and two scores, gaining 63 gutsy yards in the sec-ond half despite the leg cramps, while Walker tallied 103yards on 28 carries. Blackledge was 13-of-23 for 228 yardsto earn MVP honors.

1983 ALOHA: December 26, 1983Penn State tied an NCAA record with its fifth con-

secutive bowl victory, edging Washington, 13-10, in the1983 Aloha Bowl, thanks to excellent punting, outstand-ing defense and a clutch fourth-quarter scoring drive.

The defense held potent Washington without a touch-down, but Danny Greene’s 57-yard punt return for a score mid-way through the second quarter loomed as the key play of thegame, with the Huskies holding a 10-3 lead at the start of thefinal quarter. Lion punter George Reynolds, whose 47.7-yardpunting average on seven kicks earned him Defensive Player-of-the-Game honors, booted a 50-yard punt to the Washington16 late in the third quarter. The defense held and the offenseanswered with Nick Gancitano’s 49-yard field goal to trail, 10-6, early in the final stanza.

Reynolds’ next punt went to the Washington six, thedefense held again, and after the ensuing punt to the PennState 38, Kevin Baugh handed off to Kenny Jackson on areverse for one first down. Doug Strang then hit Baugh for16 yards to the Huskie four and tailback D.J. Dozier took thepitch over the right side for a two-yard touchdown with threeminutes to play for a 13-10 victory.

The Lions gained just 213 yards, but the defenseheld the Huskies to 279 and Reynolds’ punting proved tobe a key in keeping Penn State in the game.

1986 ORANGE: January 1, 1986Oklahoma’s defense turned in an outstanding effort

and the Sooners made two big offensive plays for a 25-10victory over Penn State in the 1985 Orange Bowl’s nationaltitle battle.

The Nittany Lions, 11-0 and No. 1, also played welldefensively against Oklahoma’s wishbone, allowing just 12first downs. The No. 2 Sooners relied on the big play — a71-yard TD pass from Jamelle Holieway to tight end KeithJackson on third-and-24 and a game-clinching 61-yardtouchdown run by Lydell Carr — plus four Tim Lashar fieldgoals to win. The loss was Penn State’s first in the OrangeBowl after three victories.

Penn State took a 7-0 lead on its first possession. JohnShaffer drove the Lions 62 yards, capped by a Tim Manoaone-yard touchdown run. But, the Sooners would score 16unanswered points. Despite four turnovers, the Lions trailedjust 19-10 as Massimo Manca attempted a 26-yard fieldwith 2:46 to play. Manca’s kick was no good and a minutelater Carr’s long TD run sealed the crown for the Sooners.

Penn State could muster just 14 first downs and 267yards against a defense which had held opponents to lessthan 200 yards during the regular-season.

1987 FIESTA: January 2, 1987Linebacker Pete Giftopoulos thrust his 233-pound

frame between Vinny Testaverde and a possible winningtouchdown in the waning seconds of the 1987 FiestaBowl, intercepting Testaverde’s final pass at the Lions’one-yard line to preserve Penn State’s 14-10 victory overNo. 1 Miami (Fla.) and earn the underdog Nittany Lionstheir second National Championship in four years.

In one of the most memorable National Champion-ship games ever, the No. 2 Nittany Lions interceptedTestaverde, the Heisman Trophy winner, five times to frus-trate the Hurricanes and earn their second 12-0 season,culminating Penn State’s celebration of 100 years of foot-ball.

Unbeaten Miami rolled up 22 first downs and 445yards to eight first downs and 162 yards for the Lions but,the Hurricanes could not convert yards into points againsta staunch Penn State defense that was no stranger toadversity. Miami’s only touchdown came in the secondquarter. Hit as he was passing, John Shaffer fumbled andthe Hurricanes recovered at the Lion 23. Four plays later,Melvin Bratton went over from the one for a 7-0 lead.

Penn State immediately answered with its only sus-tained drive of the game, going 74 yards in 13 plays. Oneof the big plays was a 23-yard pass from Shaffer to EricHamilton on third-and 12. Tim Manoa also had a 19-yardrun and caught a 12-yard pass. Shaffer rolled around theright side four yards into the end zone with 1:14 left in thehalf and Massimo Manca’s PAT made it 7-7 at the break.

Miami regained the lead early in the fourth quarter ona 38-yard field goal by Mark Seelig. All-America linebackerShane Conlan, who was hobbled by knee and ankleinjuries, who had grabbed a third-quarter interception, didit again, intercepting Testaverde’s toss and returning it 39yards to the Hurricanes’ five. After a heart-stopping first-down fumbled snap was recovered by Keith Radecic, D.J.Dozier, who had 99 yards rushing on the night, got themost important six yards of his collegiate career when hedarted through a gaping hole for the go-ahead touchdownwith 8:13 to play. Manca’s conversion pushed the PennState margin to 14-10.

Trey Bauer forced a fumble on the Hurricanes’ nextdrive, but Miami had one threat left. Starting from their own23 with 3:07 remaining, a fourth-down completion fromTestaverde to Bennie Blades gained 31 yards and pro-pelled the Hurricanes across midfield. With 18 secondsremaining, Miami had a fourth-and-goal at the Penn State13-yard line. Testaverde tested the Lions’ secondary onemore time, looking for Brett Perriman in the end zone, buthis pass came to rest in the arms of Giftopoulos, who cra-dled his second theft of the night and a Penn StateNational Championship as he fell on the ball after return-ing it to the 10-yard line with just nine seconds to play inanother of the greatest moments in Lion football history.

More than 70 million people watched the prime-timetelecast on NBC, breaking the previous record for a col-lege football telecast.

1988 CITRUS: January 1, 1988Clemson successfully blended the expected with the

unexpected to post a 35-10 conquest of Penn State in the1988 Florida Citrus Bowl, the first-ever meeting betweenthe two schools. The Tigers rushed for 285 yards andquarterback Danny Williams threw for an uncharacteristic214 yards (15-of-24) in the Nittany Lions’ first appearancein Orlando.

The Lions played without leading rusher and receiverBlair Thomas, who suffered a serious knee injury in anearly December practice which would sideline him for the1988 season. He had rushed for 1,414 yards and 11touchdowns in 1987. Freshmen Leroy Thompson andGary Brown posted 106 yards from the tailback position inThomas’ absence. Thompson, who rushed for 55 yardsand added 146 more on pass receptions (19) and kickoffreturns (127), was voted the Lions’ offensive MVP with201 all-purpose yards.

Penn State’s touchdown came on a perfect 39-yardpass from Matt Knizner to Mike Alexander that tied theissue at 7-7 in the second quarter. The Tigers led 14-7 athalftime but, Penn State cut it to 14-10 on a 27-yard fieldgoal by Eric Etze early in the third stanza. Clemsonresponded with a TD and added two more scores in thefourth period to hand the Lions their worst bowl loss.

Senior linebacker Trey Bauer, who had six stops, threetackles for losses and a quarterback sack, was PennState’s defensive MVP.

1989 HOLIDAY: December 29, 1989In a game which featured explosive offense on both

sides, two freak defensive plays decided the issuebetween Penn State and Brigham Young in the 1989Holiday Bowl, which lived up to its reputation for plenty ofscoring and wild finishes. By the time Penn State’s high-octane 50-39 victory over BYU was finished, 41 post-sea-son records had either been surpassed or equaled by theteams in the four-hour, 17-minute marathon. The Lionsand Cougars put 89 points on the scoreboard, including anNCAA bowl record 64 in the second half; gained 1,115total offensive yards; rolled up 61 first downs; and puntedonly three times.

Andre Collins, the Lions’ All-America linebacker, madethe first of the decisive defensive plays after the Cougarshad closed to within 41-39 with 2:58 remaining. Collinsintercepted Ty Detmer’s two-point conversion passattempt and returned it 100-plus yards to score two for theLions, the first time they had tallied in such a fashion sincethe rule was introduced in 1988.

On the ensuing BYU series, Hero Gary Brown blitzedpast Outland Trophy-winner Mohammed Elewonibi tosteal the ball from Detmer as he prepared to pass andreturned it 53 yards for the touchdown in the final minutethat secured the wild and wacky win.

Among the flood of big plays earlier in the game wasa spectacular, 52-yard TD catch by David Daniels, wholeapt high in the air to grab Tony Sacca’s aerial at the goalline, was hit, juggled and caught the ball as he landed onhis back in the end zone for one of the superlative catch-es in school history.

Penn State tailback Blair Thomas, playing his finalgame, broke the school bowl rushing record with 186yards on 35 carries, one a seven-yard scoring run, andshared Player-of-the-Game honors with Detmer, who was42-of-59 for an NCAA bowl record 576 yards, with twotouchdowns and two interceptions. Thomas also gained46 additional yards on a pair of pass receptions for 232 all-purpose yards.

The 64 second half points (Penn State, 38 and BYU,26) remain tied for the NCAA bowl record, while the com-bined 61 first downs by both squads also are an NCAAbowl mark. The Lions played on the West Coast for thefirst time since a 1973 visit to Stanford.

on New Year’s Day, but was one of the most intriguingpost-season contests, pitting No. 7 Penn State and No. 6Florida State and their legendary coaches, Joe Paternoand Bobby Bowden.

After spotting the Seminoles 10 points in the first eightminutes of the game, Penn State applied pressure the restof the way before finally bowing, 24-17, in a marqueematchup of 9-2 independents at Joe Robbie Stadium.

With Florida State leading, 24-10, senior quarterbackTom Bill came off the bench to ignite a 62-yard scoringdrive in three plays, finding Terry Smith behind the second-ary for a 37-yard touchdown with 6:27 to play. But twoPenn State drives later came up empty, including an inter-ception at the one-yard line with less than three minutes toplay.

Penn State’s other touchdown was scored on a 56-yard pass from Tony Sacca to David Daniels in the firstquarter, but the Lions could not overcome three intercep-tions, a partially blocked punt which led to the Seminoles’first TD and a blocked field goal.

1992 FIESTA: January 1, 1992For two and one-half quarters, Fiesta Bowl XXI had all

the earmarks of a Tennessee Waltz. But, in a furious eight-minute span in the second half, Penn State turned up thebeat and buried the bewildered Volunteers, 42-17, beneathan avalanche of big plays on both sides of the ball in the firstof what stretched to eight consecutive January bowl visits.

Penn State grabbed an early 7-0 lead, recovering afumble on the opening kickoff and converting three playslater when Sam Gash scored on a 10-yard pass from TonySacca. At halftime, Tennessee had 17 first downs and 324yards, while Penn State had just five first downs and 59yards, but the Vols only led 10-7. Vols’ quarterback AndyKelly, who was 16-of-26 for 204 yards in the opening half, hitCory Fleming on a 44-yard score on the initial possession ofthe third stanza for a 17-7 lead.

A 39-yard punt return by O.J. McDuffie ignited the Lionsand Sacca found Chip LaBarca on a three-yard scoring tossto cut the margin to 17-14 with 2:56 left in the third period.No one among the crowd of 71,133 was prepared for theonslaught which followed.

On Tennessee’s second play after the score, TyokaJackson stripped Kelly of the ball and recovered at the Vol13. On the ensuing play Sacca hit Kyle Brady and sudden-ly the Lions had a 21-17 lead. On the Vols’ second play,Reggie Givens’ interception set up a two-yard run by RichieAnderson early in the fourth quarter. On Tennessee’s nextplay, Derek Bochna hit Kelly and Givens grabbed the balland ran it in from 23 yards. In less than four minutes PennState had scored 28 points to take a 35-17 lead. Tennesseemanaged to run three plays before punting on its next pos-session and the Lions sealed the win with a 37-yard TDstrike from Sacca to McDuffie, giving them five scores inless than eight minutes.

Sacca set a Penn State bowl record with four touch-down passes and McDuffie caught four passes for 78 yardsand a touchdown and had 71 yards on punt returns to earn

122

Most Valuable Offensive Player honors. Linebacker KeithGoganious recorded a game-high 15 tackles, but Givensearned Defensive MVP accolades. Punter Doug Helkowskiset Fiesta Bowl records with his nine punts for a 47.9 yardaverage as State finished 11-2 and No. 3 in the polls.

1993 BLOCKBUSTER: January 1, 1993Stanford proved it was one of the nation’s top teams

as it raced past the Nittany Lions, 24-3, in the 1993Blockbuster Bowl, ending a Penn State string of fourstraight wins over Pac-10 teams in post-season games.

Stanford, the Pac-10 co-champions with Washington,moved 71 yards in eight plays with the opening kickoff toscore all the points the Cardinal would need in Joe RobbieStadium.

A 33-yard V.J. Muscillo field goal made it 7-3 at theend of the first quarter, but Stanford led, 14-3, at halftimeand added 10 points in the third quarter.

Stanford tallied 365 yards to Penn State’s 263. All-American O.J. McDuffie made six catches for 111 yardsand Richie Anderson carried the ball 13 times for 40 yardsas the Lions were held to their second-lowest point total ina bowl game.

1994 CITRUS: January 1, 1994A Citrus Bowl record crowd of 72,456 was treated to

the Nittany Lions’ strongest effort of the season, a 31-13knockout of sixth-ranked Tennessee. The hard-earned andsatisfying victory capped a 10-2 season and vaulted PennState to another top 10 finish.

Trailing, 10-0, Penn State retaliated with tailback Ki-Jana Carter bursting for a three-yard score. The key playwas a 36-yard strike from quarterback Kerry Collins toBobby Engram. The momentum continued to swing in theLions’ favor on Tennessee’s next possession, as TyokaJackson tipped a Heath Shuler pass which Lee Rubinsnared just inches above the turf. Engram then made a 16-yard reception and gained 35 yards on a reverse. CraigFayak’s 19-yard field goal knotted the score at 10-10.

Tennessee tallied its final points of the afternoon with afield goal, but Penn State had its two-minute offense hum-ming late in the first half. Passes to Engram and BrianO’Neal took the ball to the Vol 14-yard line with :10 left. Withthe majority of the packed stadium expecting a pass, offen-sive coordinator Fran Ganter called Carter’s number and heswept left and hurtled behind an Engram block into the endzone with just three ticks left on the clock to stun the crowd.Fayak’s PAT kick put the Lions on top for good, 17-13, cap-ping what may have been the game’s most pivotal play.

A seven-yard pass from Collins to Kyle Brady made it24-13 in the third quarter and Engram made a 15-yard TDcatch to close the scoring. Engrammade seven catches for107 yards and his 184 all-purpose yardsmade him the over-whelming choice as theOffensiveMVP, while Rubin was theDefensive MVP. Collins was 15-of-24 passing for 162 yards

and two scores, out-playing Shuler, the Heisman Trophyrunnerup, who was sacked four times in the second half.

1995 ROSE: January 2, 1995In a landmark season, the Nittany Lions brought prop-

er closure to a magnificent 1994 campaign by beatingOregon, 38-20, in the Rose Bowl, Penn State’s first appear-ance in the “Granddaddy of Them All” since the 1923 con-test. Having won their first Big Ten Championship in theirsecond year of conference play, the Lions became the firstBig Ten squad ever to earn a 12-0 record and the firstConference team to earn an unblemished record sinceOhio State in 1968.

Despite the 12-0 record and having been ranked No. 1in late October, the Lions finished No. 2 to Nebraska in thefinal polls, marking the fourth time a Paterno-led team hadgone unbeaten but not won the national title.

In a microcosm of a brilliant season, Heisman Trophyrunnerup Ki-Jana Carter flashed through the line on PennState’s first play from scrimmage, bounced off a defenderand burst into the lush green carpet for an 83-yard score inthe game’s initial five minutes. The Rose Bowl throng of102,247 rose in unison asCarter raced toward the end zonein front of the frenzied Blue andWhite backers. Just as theyhad done somany times in 1994, the Nittany Lions’ startlingoffensive prowess delivered an early lead and a dagger tothe spirit of the opposition.

123

The Lions, though, were confronted by a relentlessOregon squad, which gained a 14-14 tie in the third quarterbefore PennState pulled away for the 38-20 victory. The sig-nificance of the win in Pasadena stretched in many direc-tions: Penn State earned its fifth unbeaten, untied seasonunder Joe Paterno and its third 12-0 campaign; Paternobecame college football’s all-time winningest bowl coachwith his 16th post-season win and became the first coach incollege football history to win the traditional four majorbowls.

Carter rushed for 156 yards on 21 carries and threetouchdowns, sharing Rose Bowl Co-Most Valuable Playerhonors with Duck quarterback Danny O’Neil, who set sixRose records with his 41-of-61 effort for 456 yards and twoscores. Carter’s 83-yard run was the longest of his career,Penn State’s longest in a bowl game and the third-longestin Rose Bowl history. Lion quarterback Kerry Collins con-cluded his brilliant season with a 19-of-30 display for 200yards, setting a school completion mark for a bowl gameand fullbacks BrianMilne and JonWitman each tallied once.

The offensive fireworks by both squads produced 13Rose Bowl records and tied two others. Penn State alsoeclipsed seven individual and two team school bowlrecords.

1996 OUTBACK: January 1, 1996Facing a new opponent, in a new bowl, the Penn

State Nittany Lions were determined to send a superbclass of 21 seniors out in a familiar fashion. Playing in itsfirst Outback Bowl, a strong finish was the precursor to asolid bowl effort, as the Nittany Lions played arguably theirfinest game of the year in crushing Auburn, 43-14, to fin-ish 9-3.

Penn State seized control of the Outback with a WallyRichardson to Mike Archie touchdown pass with :05 left inthe first half for a 16-7 lead and then deluged the Tigerswith an unanswered 27-point avalanche in the third quar-ter. Outback and school bowl records were being brokenand tied by the Lions as quickly as the rain was turning theTampa Stadium turf into a quagmire.

A group of seniors who were the backbone of PennState’s impressive 31-5 record the past three seasonsagain led the way in their final game. Archie ran for 41yards in addition to his big touchdown catch. Stephen Pittsrushed for 118 yards and also made a touchdown recep-tion. Fullback Brian Milne rushed for a career-best 82yards. The senior offensive line quartet of Keith Conlin,Jeff Hartings, Andre Johnson and Marco Rivera dominat-ed the line of scrimmage, helping the Lions rush for 266yards and pass for 221 with no sacks. Terry Killens record-ed a pair of sacks to spark the defense.

And then there was Bobby Engram. The three-timeAll-American concluded his career the Lions’ all-timegreatest receiver with another typically superlative effort,earning game MVP honors for the second time in a bowl.He made four catches, three of which were typically spec-tacular, for 113 yards and two scores. Just as he haddemolished the school’s career receiving records, the1994 Biletnikoff Award winner did so with Penn State’scareer bowl receiving marks. His two TD catches alsobroke the school bowl standard, giving the dynamic player13 records.

1997 Fiesta: January 1, 1997Penn State improved to 6-0 in Tempe with a 38-15 win

over Big 12 champion Texas in the 1997 Fiesta Bowl.Gaining only 95 yards while allowing 242, Penn State

was fortunate to trail the Longhorns only 12-7 at halftime,having quickly scored after a Mark Tate interception on thegame’s second play. The defense had stiffened twiceinside the 15-yard line, holding Texas to a pair of fieldgoals and one touchdown.

As the Lions have done so many times under JoePaterno, they made adjustments at the break and thendominated the last 30 minutes. Freshman Kenny Watsontook the second-half kickoff 81 yards, a school bowlrecord, to inside the Texas 20. A five-yard Aaron Harris TDrun and a two-point pass from Wally Richardson to CurtisEnis provided a 15-12 lead less than three minutes intothe half.

Texas gained a 15-15 tie midway through the stanza,but the momentum clearly was swinging in Penn State’sdirection. On its next drive, Enis scored from two yards.The defense held and on second down, Chafie Fields tooka double reverse 84 yards to the Texas five-yard line, thelongest run in school and Fiesta Bowl history. AnthonyCleary cracked over for a 28-15 margin and the Lionsnever looked back, out-scoring Texas, 31-3, in the secondhalf. The Lions out-gained the Longhorns 330-118 in thesecond half, including a whopping 292 to minus-19 yardedge on the ground.

Richardson completed his tenure with a 21-5 recordas a starter as the 16 seniors closed their careers with a42-7 record and four bowl victories..

1998 FLORIDA CITRUS: January 1, 1998With their schools meeting for the first time since

the 1962 Gator Bowl, Joe Paterno and Steve Spurrier,matched wits for the first time in the 1998 Florida CitrusBowl. The normally pass-happy Gators stuck primarilyto the ground and posted a 21-6 victory.

Playing without starters Curtis Enis and JoeJurevicius, the Lions struggled offensively, but thedefense kept Penn State within striking range after theGators took a quick 14-0 lead. Jim Nelson collected aninterception at the Penn State four-yard line to stop aFlorida drive late in the first stanza. On the Gators’ nextpossession, Shawn Lee returned an interception 33yards to the Florida 31. The Lions moved the ball to theseven, but had to settle for a Travis Forney field goal.

The defense and special teams made two hugeplays to give Penn State first-and-goal chances in thesecond quarter. Brandon Short knocked the ball awayfrom Gator QB Doug Johnson and after a wild scramble,Short recovered at the Gators’ six. But, on fourth-and-inches, Chris Eberly was stopped short of the goal line.The defense held and Kenny Watson delivered a 52-yard punt return to the Florida six with 1:14 left in thehalf. Again, the Lions were faced with fourth-and-one,but Mike McQueary’s pass was picked off in the endzone, denying Penn State its best opportunities fortouchdowns.

A Forney field goal made it 14-6 entering the fourthquarter, but Florida scored on the second play of thestanza to end the scoring. Gator tailback Fred Taylor setCitrus Bowl records with 43 carries for 234 yards, mostever for a Lion foe in a bowl game. The Lions couldmuster only nine first downs and 139 yards in offense,the lowest in Paterno’s tenure. The 16 Lion seniors com-pleted their careers with a superb 41-8 (83.7) record.

1999 OUTBACK: January 1, 1999Facing one of college football’s most talented play-

ers — the eventual No. 1 pick in the 1999 NationalFootball League draft — the Penn State defense wassuperb in limiting the high-flying Kentucky Wildcats toonly two scores in a decisive 26-14 Outback Bowl victo-ry before a soldout crowd of 66,005 in the newRaymond James Stadium.

Joe Paterno led the Lions to their eighth straightJanuary bowl game and improved his NCAA record forbowl victories to 19.

While Heisman Trophy finalist Tim Couch did passfor 336 yards, it took him a whopping 48 attempts to doso. The Lion defense intercepted him twice, sacked himfive times and had numerous near-sacks and hurries.Kentucky broke out to an early 14-3 lead, but in the sec-ond quarter, Penn State made adjustments and scored10 unanswered points to cut the lead to 14-13.

A 56-yard TD pass from QB Kevin Thompson to JoeNastasi preceded three Travis Forney field goals.Forney also had made a trey in the first quarter, break-ing the Outback and school bowl records with four fieldgoals. Despite dominating the second and third quar-ters, the Lions only led 19-14 entering the final period.But, the defense, which had gotten a blocked field goalfrom LaVar Arrington in the third quarter, stuffed theWildcats on fourth-and-one at the Kentucky 34. Severalplays later, Chafie Fields took his second reverse of thegame 19 yards to paydirt for the final 26-14 margin.

As it had done all season, the defense led the way,paced by Anthony King’s 11 tackles, two interceptions

and a fumble recovery. Courtney Brown made the sevenstops, including four for loss, and two sacks on consec-utive plays in the final period to earn game MVP honors.

1999 ALAMO: December 28, 1999Their resolve was firm. A team that was in position to

play for the National Championship in early Novemberwas looking to finish the season on a positive note afterthree straight narrow losses to end the regular-season.

Facing Texas A&M in the Alamo Bowl, 25 seniorswere playing their final game, a victory would give JoePaterno another 10-win season, and defensive coordina-tor Jerry Sandusky was coaching his final game after 32years and 381 games on the staff.

Penn State Pride was overflowing on the Alamodometurf, as the Nittany Lions turned in a marvelous defensiveperformance to record a 24-0 blanking of the Aggies. Thewhitewash was the Lions’ 20th since Sandusky becamedefensive coordinator in 1977.

Finishing 10-3, the Lions won at least 10 games forthe 18th time under Paterno and earned the No. 11 rank-ing in the final Associated Press and USA Today/ESPNCoaches polls.

The game was Paterno’s 30th bowl contest, breakinga tie with “Bear” Bryant for appearances. The all-time bowlwins leader improved his post-season record to 20-9-1.

On A&M’s first scrimmage play, All-American LaVarArrington set the tone, as he chased QB Randy McCownand hit him as he threw, with David Macklin making thefirst of four Lion interceptions at the A&M 40-yard line.

On A&M’s second possession, Derek Fox collected aMcCown pass at the A&M 34, and weaved his way to theend zone for a 7-0 lead midway through the first quarter.

With Kevin Thompson sidelined by a shoulder injury,quarterback Rashard Casey made his first career start.He fired a 45-yard TD strike to Eddie Drummond for a 14-0 lead.

Early in the second half, the Aggies advanced to theLions’ 14. But, on third down, Arrington tipped McCown’spass and Ron Graham grabbed it at the eight to thwartanother drive.

Arrington flattened McCown to halt A&M’s last driveand Casey quickly had the Lions on the move. A 34-yardcompletion to John Gilmore took the pigskin to the A&M26. A 20-yard completion to Tony Stewart set up Casey’sfour-yard naked bootleg on the first play of the fourth quar-ter for a 21-0 lead.

On the ensuing kickoff, Askari Adams forced a fumblewhich was recovered by Shawn Mayer at the A&M 23. A39-yard Travis Forney field goal made it 24-0.

Penn State converted two third downs on the dramatic 12-play scoring drive. Clark hit Graham Zug for a first down at theLSU 37. On the next play, Zug made a huge 17-yard sidelinereception to the 20. On third-and-four from the Tigers’ 14,Stephfon Green burst through the line for a six-yard gain.Clark carried to the LSU two to set up Wagner’s game-winner.

Since admitting its first students in 1859, Penn State hasawarded some 642,000 degrees whose value is recognizedworldwide. That value reflects an educational experience sec-ond to none in quality and richness. In addition, Penn Statealumni — there are more than 285,000 in Pennsylvania alone— have job- and social-networking opportunities that no othercollege or university in the Commonwealth can surpass.

The University’s beginnings were humble. Chartered as acollege of scientific agriculture, the institution was located inrural Centre County after James Irvin, a partner in the CentreFurnace iron works (remains of which can be seen todayalong East College Avenue), agreed to donate 200 acres offarmland for a campus.

Founding President Evan Pugh wanted Penn State toembody a new approach to higher education that blended tra-ditional studies with subjects that had practical value. Hejoined similar visionaries in other states in convincingCongress to pass the Morrill Land-Grant Act in 1862. The actgave individual states tracts of federal land to sell; the pro-ceeds would support colleges that agreed to include engineer-ing, science, and the liberal arts as well as agriculture in theircourse of studies. In 1863, the Pennsylvania legislature desig-nated Penn State the Commonwealth’s sole land-grant institu-tion, thus bestowing on the privately incorporated college awide range of public functions and obligations that continue tothis day.

Initial efforts to diversify the curriculum met with mixedsuccess, but by the 1890s Penn State was making its mark. Itranked among the nation’s 10 largest undergraduate engineer-

ing schools, a distinction it still holds. President GeorgeAtherton invigorated the liberal arts, and recruited Professor ofEnglish Fred Pattee to teach the nation’s first course inAmerican literature, heretofore considered an unworthystepchild of English literature. Professor of AgricultureWhitman Jordan’s pioneering research on using fertilizers forsoil enrichment had global impact on crop yields. Penn Statein 1871 became one of the first land-grant schools in theNortheast to admit women, graduated its first international stu-dent in 1890, and its first African-American student in 1905.

In the early 1900s, Penn State launched an extensive sys-tem of outreach education, “carrying the college to the peo-ple,” as then-President Edwin Sparks liked to say. It estab-lished the nation’s first collegiate-level correspondence cours-es in agriculture, and in 1912 helped create a statewide sys-tem of county agents in agriculture and home economics.Today’s Penn State World Campus, with its “anywhere, any-time” learning through the Internet, is descended from thatstrong outreach tradition.

But undergraduate education remained foremost. Asenrollment surpassed 5,000 students in 1936, Penn Statebecame Pennsylvania’s largest source of baccalaureatedegrees. Also in the 1930s, a state-wide system of undergrad-uate centers was created for students who, in the depths ofthe Great Depression, could not afford to leave their home-towns to get a college education. The centers offered the firstyear of baccalaureate studies and were the predecessors oftoday’s system of 19 primarily undergraduate campuses locat-ed throughout the Commonwealth.

Following the Second World War, Penn State underwentunprecedented expansion, first to meet the needs of returningmilitary veterans and later to accommodate the Baby Boomgeneration. Total enrollment at all Penn State campusesclimbed to 40,000 by 1970.

The University also emerged on the national scene as aresearch powerhouse. Research — a land-grant obligation —first garnered international attention in fields as diverse asdairy science, acoustics, psychology, and petroleum refining.As world-renowned faculty encouraged greater student partic-ipation in research and creative activities, Penn State was ableto provide an enriched undergraduate experience unavailableat the state-owned universities.

Annual research expenditures now exceed $765 millionand help to make Penn State the largest single non-govern-mental contributor to Pennsylvania’s economy. The Universitygenerates about $8.5 billion in total economic impact eachyear.

Today, as measured by the more than 100,000 applica-tions for admissions it receives annually, Penn State isAmerica’s most popular university. Enrollment is spread acrossthe University Park campus, the research and administrativehub; 19 undergraduate campuses; Penn State Milton S.Hershey Medical Center, including the College of Medicine;the Pennsylvania College of Technology; the Penn StateDickinson School of Law, Carlisle campus; the Penn StateGreat Valley School of Graduate Professional Studies; andthe Penn State World Campus.

� Nittany Lion Legend

Penn State’s athletic symbol, chosen by the studentbody in 1906, is the mountain lion which once roamedcentral Pennsylvania.

H.D. “Joe" Mason, a member of the Class of 1907,conducted a one-man campaign to choose a schoolmascot after seeing the Princeton tiger on a trip with thePenn State baseball team to that New Jersey campus.A student publication sponsored the campaign to selecta mascot and Penn State is believed to be the first col-lege to adopt the lion as a mascot.

Since Penn State is located in the Nittany Valley atthe foot of Mount Nittany, the lion was designated as aNittany Lion. In regional folklore, Nittany (or Nita-Neewas a valorous Indian princess in whose honor theGreat Spirit caused Mount Nittany to be formed. A laternamesake, daughter of chief O-Ko-Cho, who lived nearthe mouth of Penn’s Creek, fell in love with MalachiBoyer, a trader. The tearful maiden and her lost loverbecame legend and her name was given to the statelymountain.

� The “S” Zone

Organized in 1999 by the Penn State LionAmbassadors, the student alumni corps, the “S” Zonerevived one of the oldest traditions — Block S — in thestudent section at Beaver Stadium. Now formed when700 underclassmen don coordinated blue and white t-shirts, the giant block “S” is a striking symbol visiblethroughout the stadium and captured regularly bynational television cameras. The “S” Zone, which hashad several locations over the years, most recentlymoved from the end zone to the 20-yard line. The areais marked on the bleachers on Fridays before homegames by volunteers from the Lion Ambassadors whoalso seek sponsorships to offset the cost of printing thet-shirts and coordinate the delivery and distribution of t-shirts on game days.

� The Nittany Lion Shrine

Penn State’s Nittany Lion shrine was dedicated onOct. 24, 1942, during Homecoming Weekend. Animalsculptor Heinz Warneke and stonecutter Joseph Garattimolded a 13-ton block of Indiana limestone into themost recognizable symbol of Penn State. The shrinewas chosen from six models submitted by Warneke.

The shrine is a gift of the Class of 1940 and rests ina natural setting of trees near Recreation Building. Thesite was chosen because of its accessibility, the sur-rounding trees and the fact that the sculpture would notbe dwarfed by nearby buildings.

� Blue & White

Penn State’s student-athletes are instantly identifiedby their blue and white uniforms — but those weren’t theoriginal school colors.

A three-member committee representing the soph-omore, junior and senior classes was appointed inOctober of 1887 to develop color options from which thestudent body would select the school’s official colors.Dark pink and black was the unanimous choice of thestudent body after considering the color combinationspresented by the committee.

Soon many students and the baseball team weresporting pink and black striped blazers and caps.However, problems arose when the pink faded to whiteafter several weeks of exposure to the sun. The stu-dents then opted for blue, rather than black, and white.The official announcement of the new choice was madeon March 18, 1890.
