James Franklin hurting from punch to ribs from Penn State QB
All was going well for Penn State at halftime of the PlayStation Fiesta Bowl. The Nittany Lions were up 28-14 on Washington. James Franklin should have been pretty happy. But there was one thing that was bothering him.
After a touchdown pass to put Penn State up 7-0 in the first quarter, quarterback Trace McSorley gave Franklin a nudge to the midsection. Apparently it left a little more than just a mark.

If there’s anything that can make Franklin feel a little better, it’s the sweet taste of victory. That can take the pain away.
