Penn State Gets Trounced by Alabama 24-3

Joe Paterno, in his 45th season as Penn State Head Coach has a true freshman starting at quarterback for the first time in his legendary career. And, freshman quarterback Robert Bolden looked like a deer in the headlights out there last night against 'Bama' defense. The Nittany Lions were no match for the Crimson Tide and lost 24-3.

The Eagles Open Up Season Against Packers

For the first time in 10 years the Eagles will open the season with a new starting QB - Kevin Kolb. They take on the Packers at 4:15 at Lincoln Financial Field today. I've said it time and time again to not worry about the Eagles' offense. They have essentially the same offense as last year with Kolb being the main change. Brian Westbrook was a non-factor last year as was Stacy Andrews, both who are no longer with the team. If there is something to be worried about; it's the D. They have a lot of youth on defense and Stewart Bradley, Brandon Graham, and Nate Allen must make huge impacts. I happen to think they will, but whenever you have to count on rookies expect some growing pains. Philly2Philly.com's Mark Eckel thinks the Eagles will go through their growing pains, but will be a much better team by season's end. I see them winning 10 games.
