Only Michael Robinson Until Penn State Football

Michael Robinson may go down as my favorite Penn State quarterback of all time. Coming off the Dark Ages, Robinson took over for the Lions as quarterback in the 2005 season - my sophomore year. What happened next was one of the most memorable seasons in my own personal college football history, as MRob led the team to a 12-1 record, a Big Ten Championship, and an Orange Bowl victory over Florida State.

Robinson compiled 2,350 passing yards, 17 passing TDs, 806 rushing yards, and 11 rushing TDs, becoming the first Penn State quarterback to pass for over 2,000 yards and rush for over 500 yards.
