The Nittany Lions have become everybody's favorite underdog. Although they have no chance at a bowl because of their postseason ban, they seem to find a way to win week after week with a depleted roster. In the offseason, when many players transferred to other schools following the controversy, including star running back Silas Redd, no one believed this team would win even a third of their games. Lo and behold, here we are in week 11 and the Nittany Lions, behind the strong play of Matt McGloin, find themselves at 6-3 and have a good shot at winning two, if not three, of their final games. Apparently they are, indeed, Penn State.
