Penn State football drops out of top five after loss to Minnesota

You can’t always win em’ all in football. Although championship-caliber teams are expected to, it’s quite difficult to actually go through an entire season without losing a game. Penn State football was well on their way to an undefeated season but fell short this past weekend.

Coming off of a bye week, the Nittany Lions had more than enough rest before heading to Minnesota for their next matchup. Before the season started, nobody expected Penn State or the Golden Gophers to be undefeated through eight games — and that made the Big Ten matchup much more intriguing this past Saturday.
