Coaching the Nittany Lions
Joe Paterno’s a college sports icon.
With his 400th win,
Paterno’s name’s in
a class that all can rely on.

Northwestern took the most recent of losses,
victim of Matt McGloin’s TD tosses.
They sealed Blue and White’s
triumph Saturday night,
a veneration for one of football’s field bosses.

His record’s one no one approaches,
as no college football coaches
can match the successes
of the man with the glasses,
a man drawing few reproaches.
