“After the game, Penn State players offered unrequited support for Ficken, who, in truth, was never supposed to be Penn State’s starting kicker. Anthony Fera, an All-Big Ten selection last season, was supposed to handle those duties. However in wake of the NCAA sanctions, Fera transferred to Texas.”
