Alabama Survives While Penn State Falls To Iowa



Penn State and Joe Paterno got their hearts broken again as The Iowa Hawkeyes beat the Nittany Lions in Iowa City by a score of 24-23. Daniel Murray kicked the game-winning field with one second remaining. Murray was just 1 for 3 on his field-goals attempts this season prior to the kick and hadn't made one since the season opener. In fact, over the past five games, Murray had more tackles (one) than field goals made (none). The Nittany Lions now do not have to worry about the BCS.

Meanwhile Nick Saban went back to LSU and came away with a overtime victory over the Tigers when John Parker Wilson scored on a 1 yard sneak as Alabama won in overtime by a score of 27-21 to keep their National Championship hopes still alive. Nick Saban was under heavy guard just in case something happen, but his team took care of business and Saban left smiling.
