>>(soon to be Joe Paterno Stadium, I reckon).<< Agree. >> As far as the Alamo, maybe Joe felt we couldn't beat anyone in the SE conference - with PSU, Minn., and Purdue all announcing the same day, I'm sure this whole scenario was orchestrated by the Big Ten & the coaches. << Also agree plus since we were at Outback last year and didn't travel well, Alamo was the best we were going to do.

>>"I don't know if [the end of the New Year's Day streak] is a disappointment or not," Paterno said. "Maybe sometimes it is better to do something a little different every so often. The kids may be disappointed at first, but I'm sure once they get down to San Antonio and see what a great city it is and realize how tough our competition is going to be, they'll get themselves ready to play."<< Is this Bill Clinton talking? This is an insult to the fans IMO. It is to me anyway. Can you imagine Lloyd Carr saying this? >>"For one, I didn't have a chance to talk to my players because they are all on [Thanksgiving] break," Paterno said. "And truthfully, before they left I didn't get a sense that any of them didn't want to play in a bowl. This is a great opportunity for them to get to see a part of the country most of them have probably never been to. Plus this is a great group of seniors who deserve a chance to end their career on a high."<< didn't tell em he was lining them up for a loss they weren't interested in? HO HO. Like they had a say in the matter.
