Getting your Trinity Audio player ready...
Coach: Joe Paterno.
Record at school: 257-69-3 (.785), 6-2 (.750) Big 10, 28 years.
1993 record: 10-2 (.833), 6-2 (.750) Big 10, third place.
Returning starters: 10: offense 7, defense 3.
Players to watch: WR Bobby Engram, TE Kyle Brady, LB Brian Gelgheiser, TB Ki-Jana Carter, QB Kerry Collins.
Top newcomers: OL Aaron Collins.
Outlook: Paterno is fretting about having to replace eight defensive starters, but can anyone recall Penn State being bad on defense? Offensively, the Nittany Lions are being compared to the teams of 1978 and ’82. Each finished 11-1 and ranked No. 4 and No. 1, respectively. Balance is there: Collins’ passing, Engram’s catching, Carter’s running. Put Paterno’s bunch in the title hunt.
