They start by making a ton of mistakes – mostly on offense – to encourage the home fans and boost the confidence of an underdog opponent. They drop behind in the score to instill doubt in their own fans. But eventually they make a spectacular play to take the lead. Then they hang on at the end to save a game that almost got away. As they approach the midpoint of the season, the Lions return to Beaver Stadium for a two-game home stand against Iowa and Purdue with a 4-1 record, after opening their 19th Big Ten campaign with a 16-10 victory at Indiana Saturday. Joe Paterno, the dean of college coaches, captured his 100th victory all-time against a Big Ten opponent and his 405th overall, as Penn State raised to 10-3 its mark in Big Ten road games since 2007.
