PASADENA, Calif. - Penn State's players, coach James Franklin and even the radio broadcast team of Steve Jones and Jack Ham wore white No. 34 jerseys as they arrived at the stadium Monday. That's the number the late Franco Harris wore at Penn State, although he's probably better known nationally as No. 32, which he wore during a hall of fame career…

Jostling for position at the head of the market are the likes of the Uther Pendragon, whose recent victory in an even weaker handicap on polytrack was his first win since June 2020, while the course and distance win of All About Alice also came in a very weak classified stakes, since when she has been unplaced in three straight 0-55…

A victory on Senior Day. A potential top-10 ranking. The 11th-ranked Nittany Lions have won their last three games and a triumph over the Spartans would give PSU a…

Penn State and Rutgers have significant goals that remain with the regular season winding down. James Franklin's team will finish with a top-10 ranking if it can win its final two contests and defeat a quality opponent in a bowl game.

Those issues may still be in place today when James Franklin's Nittany Lions tangle with Maryland today at Beaver Stadium. But this is one of the deeper teams of the Franklin era and Penn State's running game and defense should present…

It's time to go Dutch in the final race of Glorious Goodwood today. Mark and Charlie Johnston's horses have, predictably, been running well this week, as they often do here. They have three in the Federation Of Bloodstock Agents Handicap and I like in-form DUTCH DECOY (4.30) the most. He has struck up a great partnership with young rider Oliver…
