MADISON, WISCONSIN, November 4 — I’m not going to write much about this crappy, vapid game, because it was the same old insipid stuff as we’ve seen the rest of this jejune season. The more significant events were outside the sphere of the exhilarating game itself, including Paul Posluszny setting a Penn State record, Joe Paterno taking a hit on the sideline, sustaining a knee injury, and ESPN (hopefully former) commentator Craig James calling Joe an “old fart.”
