In 1982, “E.T.: The Extra-Terrestrial” was the No. 1 movie in America, Time Magazine’s Person of the Year was the computer, James Franklin was 10 years old, and Penn State finished out a historic stretch. One that these 2018 Nittany Lions have a chance to match.
If Penn State defeats Kentucky in the Citrus Bowl on Jan. 1, Franklin’s squad will get to 10 wins for the third straight season.
