FROM THE EXPRESS TIMES
Penn State's tumultuous year ended with a 30-14 loss to Houston in the TicketCity Bowl today, a dispiriting finish to a season in which coach Joe Paterno was fired in the wake of child sex-abuse charges against former defensive coordinator Jerry Sandusky.
The 24th-ranked Nittany Lions were picked apart by Cougars star Case Keenum, who threw for 532 yards and three touchdowns. Penn State was allowing 162 yards passing per game, but Keenum threw for more than double that by halftime.
He burned the Nittany Lions' veteran secondary with touchdown passes of 40 and 75 yards to build a 24-7 lead by halftime.
It was the school's first bowl game without Paterno as head coach since the 1962 Gator Bowl, a 17-7 loss to Florida.
