Penn State, Notre Dame arrive at Orange Bowl with a bigger game in mind

Associated Press  

DANIA BEACH, Fla. — In an era that is now long gone, a trip to the Orange Bowl meant a break from the rough weather up north and the capper to a successful season that, if things had gone great, ended with a championship trophy in the case. This season, for Penn State and Notre Dame, it’s the latest stop in the “One and Done” tour that college football has become. “You get to this point in the season, and when you’re out, you’re out,” Penn State tight end Khalil Dinkins said of a season that could extend to 17 games for the Nittany Lions. Among the biggest game-plan challenges for Notre Dame defensive coordinator Al Golden — the former Miami coach who has connections everywhere he looks this week — will be coming up with a way of controlling Tyler Warren, Penn State’s 6-foot-6, 260-pound tight end who can catch, but can also throw and run. “I just think that’s common sense.” Leonard’s play came not long after the Notre Dame punt team hustled off the field on fourth-and-short, to be quickly replaced by the offense.
