Associated Press
Preparing for his 27th bowl game in 31 seasons at Penn State, Joe Paterno, 70, said he has no immediate plans to retire from coaching.
“If I can go to 75 I’ll be happy,†Paterno said. “Seventy’s not old. If you exercise and eat properly, it’s just a number.â€
Paterno’s No. 7 Nittany Lions (10-2) will face Big 12 champion Texas (8-4) in Wednesday night’s Fiesta Bowl at Tempe, Ariz.
