UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. —

  • I knew Temple was bad, but not that bad. It was a bloodbath out there. I don’t think I have ever seen a football team play so badly. They were unlucky too.
  • What did we learn about Penn State yesterday? Nothing.
  • The downpour started at about 2:15 and did not let up for more than three minutes at a time.
  • I wonder what Tony Hunt’s ypg would have been if his first three carries weren’t for losses. Once he got going he was unstoppable. It just wasn’t fair.
  • Anthony Morelli settled down as the game wore on, but he still suffers from too many tipped passes.
  • It was very weird not having Joe Paterno around.
  • I never realized how much radio personalities Guy Junker and Pat Boland sound the same.
  • Bob Flounders accurately predicted the final score (47-0) in the Patriot-News.
  • When was the last time it rained this much during a Penn State season?
  • To earlier winners this season, I picked up your stickies yesterday.
  • It was great seeing some many of the reserves get on the field. One of the reasons that Penn State has not been reloading like they used to is they have stopped blowing out teams like they used to and thus getting the younger players in more frequently. That and the crummy offensive lines.
  • I think Paterno was going to be released from the hospital yesterday no matter what; it wouldn’t be fair to the patients and staff to have him there during a game.
  • In his Penn State Sports Network interview Paterno seemed tired, but enthusiastic. He appears to be taking being off the sideline better than I would have expected. Of course, it could all be a front.
  • Penn State’s record with my folks around is now 5-2, I think.
  • I miss kicking field goals.
