OJ Anyone?

I woke up this morning to discover that Penn State had won the slugfest at the Orange Bowl the night before. Or should I say won it earlier this morning? When I went to bed around 12:15 AM the score was tied 16-16 with PSU and Florida State headed into overtime. Boy, was I frustrated! Things just weren't going well throughout the entire game. By the time the last failed score attempt of the 4th quarter had sailed to the left of the uprights, and with OT looming I thought all might be lost. I shuffled off to bed. Gloomy. But eventually it seems the stamina of the boys in blue and white prevailed in a 26-23 victory after 3...count 'em...3 OT periods. Could that old saying about God being a Penn State fan (because he made the sky blue and white) be true? Anyway, the neat thing was my brother, Steve, and my cousin, Jason, got to go down to Miami and be at the game. What an exciting culmination to what has been a fantastic football season.
