ALTOONA, Pa. -- For years and years, one goal for Penn State basketball has always been to just still be in the mix come late February.
Usually by this time of year, the Nittany Lions don't have much hope of reaching even that goal, let alone reaching the NCAA Tournament.
But here we are this season, with three games left to play, and ... gulp ... Penn State controls its own destiny.
As of Saturday, Joe Lunardi had the Lions as the first team out -- No.
