1. Competitive portion of game is over. I know, I know. Anything can happen with another half to play. But it's hard to imagine Penn State mustering enough offense and stopping Alabama to rally. All that could be left is wondering whether Alabama pitches a shutout. The last time Joe Paterno was shut out: Oct. 6, 2001, in a 20-0 loss to Michigan at Happy Valley.
2. McElroy looks sharp. Greg McElroy's 1st half stats: 9 of 15, 172 yards, 2 TD, 0 INT. Just another day at the office for a quarterback whose confidence continues to grow.
3. Classy move by Tide fans. After Joe Paterno did an on-field interview following the first half, Alabama fans gave him a long ovation. Paterno raised his fist in the air to acknowledge the crowd. Alabama fans listen well to their championship coach: Nick Saban said no booing Penn State, and the fans have heeded that call.
