My bison sirloin was so tough and flavorless that I couldn't finish it; the fries tasted of old grease. And apart from the two deer heads on the wall, virtually every other decoration at Frontier Fort was supplied by national beer companies; the clockface read "Miller Lite, A True Pilsner Beer."

Playing in heavy rain for the entire game, the teams combined for 11 fumbles, six by Bucknell. McDermott hit tight end Chris Mizell with a 15-yard touchdown pass 5:21 into...
Penn’s rushing defense, ranked third in the nation, will shut down the Bison ground game, and the backup Bucknell punter Ryan Korn—who assumed the role after the starter Phil Azarik came down with mononucleosis—will probably pull a hamstring cleaning up after the three-and-outs. If the Quakers so desired, they could win by 50. Restraint and sportsmanship could cut that number almost in half, but Penn will easily cover the points...
