Underachievers sign free agent deals

Former Penn State players QB Anthony Morelli and RB Austin Scott have both signed NFL contacts with Arizona and Cleveland, respectively. Said one NFL scout about Morelli:

Blue White Roundtable: Alamo Bowl Eve

This pre-Alamo Bowl edition of Blue White Roundtable features questions from all of us.

Senior linebacker Dan Connor, junior cornerback Justin King, sophomore punter Jeremy Boone, sophomore defensive end Maurice Evans and junior center A.Q. Shipley were named to the first team.

WWN PENN STATE POSTGAME #12

VS.

Penn State Nittany Lions 31 Michigan State 35
This loss is on the defense. Giving up 35 points?! They only times they stopped Michigan State was when they got turnovers which they didn’t even necessarily cause. When was the last time the defense had such a bad half?
It was good to see Sean Lee [...]
