Football by the numbers.(The Providence Journal)
Talking about a number of things, and doing it by the numbers:
324
The more you think about the number of games Brown grad Joe Paterno (class of `50) has won, the more amazing, the more incredible, it becomes.
Think of it like this: If a college coach won 10 games a year for the next 32 years, he still would trail Paterno.
What's even more mind-boggling is that Paterno has won all of those games at one school.
Penn State presented him with his record-setting, 324th victory Saturday, coming from behind to beat Ohio State, 29-27, after trailing in the third quarter, 27-9.
Paul "Bear" Bryant, the man Paterno passed to become No. 1 on the all-time list, was a successful coach at Kentucky and Texas A&M before achieving legendary status at Alabama.
