- Ending this tumultuous season on a positive note was on the minds of the Nittany Lions as they hosted the Michigan State Spartans in Beaver Stadium on senior day. The back and fourth battle broke in the third quarter when the defense literally smothered the Spartan attack which gave the Lion offense a short field time and again to put up 28 3rd quarter points to run away with this game. They sent out quarterback Zack Mills with a well deserved 3 TD performance for his curtain call. And defensive players like Tamba Hali and Paul Posluszny made huge plays which foreshadowed the superstardom they'd reach in the following season.
The Lions capped 2004 with a very subpar 4-7 record, yet won the final two games for some momentum heading into the offseason. They ended up 9th in the conference standings while Michigan State held a 7th place finish. The Spartans concluded the year with a 5-7 record.
Zach had a tumultuous career, but he won some huge games and played mostly through injury the final 2+ seasons. This was a satisfying end to the darkness.
