After a difficult start to the season, Penn football coach Al Bagnoli stressed the need for his team to get back to the fundamentals.

Confidence is a crazy thing, and Penn football just may have it now.

More impressive than the points that the Quakers put up or the yards Torgersen amassed on Saturday was the sophomore quarterbacks strong decision making.

Undoubtedly, Penn's running game has failed to impress this season. Until Saturday that is.

After a slow start, the Quakers dominated visiting Columbia 31-7 with their most complete offensive effort of the season.

Penn fell behind early, but improved defensive play and a stout running game helped the Quakers seize the lead
