Irish Unprepared Is Penn State Too Ready Gator Bowl
Penn State coach Joe Paterno says the Nittany Lions are over prepared for the Gator Bowl while Notre Dame coach Dan Devine says the Irish are under prepared. Paterno notes ample home practice and a plan to ease off before Monday’s game. Devine says they’ve had enough work but will push harder at the bowl site. Notre Dame guard Ted Horansky played with a dislocated left thumb but will start. Both defenses are expected to be strong with a likely low scoring affair.
