next game at Indiana
was the imperfect
one. Mention Indi-
ana to the fans who
lived through the
1994 season and they'll tell you it was the
day the Nittany Lions lost the national
championship. That is a myth. Almost
from the start of the season, the pollsters
had favored Nebraska over Penn State.
And one of the reasons was to help Ne-
braska coach Tom Osborne try to win his
:rst national title a>
SOMETHING IN
RESERVE
Richardson
played sparingly in
1994, but the lessons
he learned as Collins'
backup helped him
when he took over the
offense in '95 and '96.
