If Robinson cannot play, Mitchell would step in as understudy, hoping to help the team forget past failures and secure an edge. Robinson, nursing a rib injury, weighs treatment and play, while Mitchell emphasizes the team goal over individual redemption.

Penn State Still Top In Hearts Not In Polls
In a Penn State dominated view the Nittany Lions insist they were the top team of 1969 despite Texas topping the final AP poll. Penn State highlights a 11-0-0 run, 222-9 scoring edge, and stingy defense that intercepted seven Missouri passes. Paterno argues schedule strength and Bowl selections denied them No 1. The piece notes NFL draft attention and strong fan belief in Penn State as No 1 despite national ranking.
