53 Days from Kickoff!!

We are 53...53...Randy Gradishar days away from the kickoff of college football season. WOOO HOOO!! Here's a clip (as I'll try to post one or more per day) to get your mind ready for it.

This first clip is of the Bama vs. Penn St. game in Tuscaloosa in 1982. Joe Paterno brought his Nittany Lion squad into Alabama for the first time ever. Both teams were undefeated in 1982 but Bama coach Bear Bryant had Penn State's number. 1982 would see Joe Paterno win his first National Championship by defeating #1 Georgia 27-23 in the Sugar Bowl, but not before taking the worst beating a #1 team has ever taken during a national championship season: 42-21 at the hands of Bear Bryant who went undefeated against Joe Paterno; defeating him in the 1975 Sugar Bowl, the 1978 Sugar Bowl, and the '81 and '82 regular seasons.
