2007 SEASON IN REVIEW: For the second year in a row, the Penn State Nittany
Lions finished with a 9-4 record. They got off to a quick 3-0 start in 2007
against a trio of overmatched squads, including the Notre Dame Fighting Irish,
whom Penn State disposed of by a 31-10 margin in Week 2. However, the good
times didn't last long, as But Penn State closed out September with back-to-
back narrow road losses to Michigan (14-9) and Illinois (27-20). The Nittany
Lions weren't about to go in the tank though, reeling off another three wins,
including a 38-7 trouncing of then 19th-ranked Wisconsin in the second week of
October. After falling victim to top-ranked Ohio State (37-17) in the final
week of October, Penn State rebounded with wins over Purdue (26-19) and Temple
(31-0) before losing a heartbreaker at Michigan State (35-31). Joe Paterno's
team did end the season on a high note, knocking off Texas A&M (24-17) in the
Alamo Bowl.
