    Does Franklin win this Game?

    Let's not ignore the fact that Clemson played without a number of first line players who decided they were finished with "college" football. I am ecstatic with PSU's victory.

    A 53 year old tradition ends.....

    Fairgambit, as a fellow golden ager on this board, my absolute best to you and Mrs. Gambit this wonderful season. As others have posted previously, life has many ups and downs.
