Paterno gamble pays off as Penn State defeats Pittsburgh
Penn State coach Joe Paterno rolled the dice at 5:02 of the fourth, leading to a 4 yard Guman TD on fourth down and a 17-10 win. The unbeatens extended the nation's longest major college win streak as Pitt’s defense and turnovers doomed the Panthers. The Lions then held, aided by two interceptions, to preserve the victory and set up possible title implications with Alabama or Georgia looming.
