After watching my Nittany Lions go down to the Buckeyes, I needed a distraction. I had to get out of the house and forget about the game. Sure, the Lions are still in contention for the Rose Bowl, but another loss to the perennial powerhouse proved that Penn State hasn’t yet reached the pinnacle of the sport (read CFP). Close.
