I know so many people in that picture. Same w/ the SI cover.
The best Penn State internet goodness tends to be random. I highly recommend that Penn Staters in general & football fans in particular follow either (or both!) of the below accounts.

Those were the days, my friend...we thought they'd never end.
I was a sophomore then, and didn't really fully appreciate what had been accomplished. Now, I've lived in Georgia for over 40 years...and I appreciate it!

I was a senior in high school and at that point did not have Penn state on my radar. In fact, was not a huge college football fan other than following ND because off my dad. Didn't apply until February.
Amazing how my passions would change in 7 months after attending first home game (loss to effing Iowa)... and would forever alter my illogical passion in life

I was a freshman. It seems like just yesterday and forever ago at the same time.Those were the days, my friend...we thought they'd never end.

My wife and I were there. Outnumbered by Georgia fans by about 3-1. Heard nothing but how about those dawgs for days before the game. My wife asked me about 1:00 am on New Year’s Day if I was still awake. When I said yes, she said if she heard how about them dawgs much more she was going to throw up. I told her that she would only have to put up with it for a little less than 24 hours because they would be quiet as church mice after they lost. After the game joined a bunch of Penn State fans marching down Bourbon Street chanting what do Lions Eat? Dawg meat. Those were the days indeed.

So much fun in NOLA.
I drove over and apparently parked my car in a questionable area. Surprisingly it was still there, untampered with, on Sunday morning.
To this day I have no idea how I would have returned home had it been stolen or disabled.

Considering that the game against Alabama was a Top 5 match-up which was our only loss that year, we were fortunate to have a chance to play Georgia for the title at the end of the season.
