Paterno Faces Injury Woes as Penn State Opens Against USC
Penn State coach Joe Paterno contends with injuries to four starters including Iorio Caruso and Williams as the 22nd ranked Nittany Lions prepare for a Kickoff Classic clash with No. 15 Southern California.

He also seeks seven wins to surpass Bear Bryant’s 323 career wins but brushes past the record talk, focusing on USC.
