STATE COLLEGE, Pa. -- The white out in the stands became the white out on the field as Penn State fans mobbed their Nittany Lions. Well after the biggest victory of the post-Joe Paterno era was over, the cries of We Are! Penn State! echoed underneath 56-year-old Beaver Stadium and bounced off its big rusty metal beams.It felt like the gd ol days for Penn State ftball and Happy Valley was downright ecstatic Saturday night after the Nittany Lions upset No. 2 Ohio State 24-21.Obviously these types of wins are important, coach James Franklin said. To be honest with you, I dont want to spend a lot of time thinking about the big picture right now, I just want to soak this all in. I just want to enjoy tonight.Grant Haley returned a blocked field goal 60 yards for a touchdown with 4:27 left in the fourth quarter and the Nittany Lions sacked J.T. Barrett twice on Ohio States final possession to seal a milestone victory for Penn State:- First against Ohio State since 2011.- First over a ranked team under Franklin.- First against a top-five team since 1999 against Arizona.- First against a top-two team since 1990 against No. 1 Notre Dame.- First in Beaver Stadium against a team ranked so high since 1982 against No. 2 Nebraska.Penn State (5-2, 3-1 Big Ten) tk its first lead against the Buckeyes when Marcus Allen leaped high to block Tyler Durbins 45-yard field goal attempt and Haley made the scp and sprint to the end zone.Its something you dream about as a kid, Haley said. Just running to the end zone and falling, it was a huge sigh of relief, like, everything, all the hard work this teams put in coming into play against the No. 2 team in the country.The crowd of 107,280 at Beaver Stadium, almost all dressed in white, went nuts after Penn State tk the lead, and then thousands poured out onto the field when the clock hit 0:00.The Buckeyes (6-1, 4-1 Big Ten) had their 20-game road winning streak snapped and the Big Ten East race that lked like an inevitable march toward an Ohio State-Michigan showdown on Nov. 26 in Columbus, Ohio, tk a bit of a detour. Two seasons ago the Buckeyes bounced back from an early loss and won the national championship. Last season one loss turned out to be enough to eliminate Ohio State from the College Ftball Playoff.Feel the same as Michigan State last year, Ohio State defensive end Sam Hubbard said.The Buckeyes are in much better position to recover.Penn State is now in the mix, but the Wolverines and Buckeyes still have the advantage in the division. If they all finish 8-1 in the conference and the Buckeyes beat Michigan, Penn State -- which has already lost to the Wolverines -- would be eliminated from three-way tiebreaker because of a worse overall record.The Nittany Lions will worry about that later.This isnt a fluke win, linebacker Jason Cabinda said. This is who we are. This is who we believe we can be and will continue to be.THE TAKEAWAYOhio State: The Buckeyes became the highest ranked team to lose to an unranked team this season. Problems with the passing game left them unable to put Penn State away. Barrett was 28 for 43 for 245 yards and he was sacked six times as the Buckeyes, especially right tackle Isaiah Prince, struggled to protect their quarterback.I think we put our O-line in bad spots early on in drives, so were in second and long and then we had to pass and that harmed us, Barrett said.Penn State: The Nittany Lions got Cabinda and fellow linebacker Brandon Bell back from injury, and the defense played it best game of the season. Bell (19 tackles) and Cabinda (12 tackles) were all over the field and defensive end Garrett Sickels had 2.5 sacks.POLL IMPLICATIONSOhio State: How far will the Buckeyes fall? At least behind most of the unbeaten teams and maybe behind Louisville. Figure somewhere around No. 7 or 8.Penn State: The Nittany Lions have not been ranked since 2011, but that could change on Sunday.UP NEXTOhio State: The Buckeyes return home after two straight road games to face Northwestern, which is on a three-game winning streak.Penn State: The Nittany Lions visit Purdue. Penn State has won seven straight meetings.---More AP college ftball: tball.ap.org" target="_blank">www.collegeftball.ap.org Cheap Air Jordan 13 Retro Purple .

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. -- Two weeks after breaking a bone in his right ft, Sean Maguire returned to preseason practices for No. 4 Florida State.The senior quarterback did team and individual drills during Fridays session. When Maguire was hurt Aug. 11, coach Jimbo Fisher said he expected Maguire to miss 3-4 weeks.Maguire, who had a screw placed in his ft on Aug. 15, started five games of the final six games last season as he completed 59.3 percent of his passes with 11 touchdowns and six interceptions.Redshirt freshman Deondre Francois is still expected to start the Sept. 5 opener in Orlando against 11th-ranked Mississippi, but if Maguire is available for that game it could ease Fishers mind. Currently backing up Francois are sophomore J.J. Cosentino and freshman walk-on Jake Rizzo. Freshman Malik Henry remains indefinitely suspended for what Fisher called a violation of team rules.Henry, who enrolled early and tk part in spring practices, was seen with the team during Fridays kickoff luncheon but has not practiced since last week.ddddddddddddNFLPA VISIT: DeMaurice Smith, the executive director of the NFL Players Association, met with Florida State players Friday night as part of the unions Pipeline to the Pros program. Smith was at Alabama last week as the NFLPA is trying to visit schls with the highest percentage of future NFL players.Smith said the main purpose of the visits is to let players know about resources and programs available to them once they enter the league.It is important that young men who have aspirations of earning a job in the NFL understand how to best prepare for the business of ftball, Smith said. We tell them that there are plenty of resources available to help with decisions about whether or not to enter the draft, or how they select an agent if they want one and any other business decisions they have to make.
