This is a terrible time of year to be a Penn State football fan.

UNIVERSITY PARK — A win on Senior Day, for obvious reasons, means a lot to each group of Penn State seniors. It’s the last time they will ride to the stadium in the blue buses, the last time they will run through the tunnel and the last time they will play before 100-some-odd thousand home fans.
