    PSU WINS!<\/h2>\n

    We finally got to see a win<\/b><\/a> (Inqy\/CDT<\/em>) on Saturday! Sure, it was lowly Indiana, but beating them preventing us from hitting rock bottom. The game was slow in the first half, though we did get to see frosh QB Anthony Morelli<\/strong>, who played like a frosh QB. Starting QB Zack Mills<\/strong> played well and the wideouts, led by Michael Robinson<\/strong>, caught the ball for a change<\/b><\/a> (CDT<\/em>). The most praise needs to be showered on Tom Bradley’s<\/strong> defense, which had a goal line stand in the last minute<\/b><\/a> (CDT<\/em>). Coach Bradley, rumored to be the apparent heir-apparent<\/b><\/a> (Patriot-News<\/em>), was so happy he leaped into a player’s arms. Other highlights included chest bumping at the bar and bourbon<\/strong> shots at the end of the game.<\/p>\n
