If Saturday’s season opener against Delaware State was only 35 minutes long, the conversation about Penn men’s basketball would probably be different.

It sure would have been nice to send off the program’s winningest coach with another victory in his final game at Franklin Field, but Penn football showed a lot to be proud of in its loss to Harvard.

On a night honoring Penn’s five seniors, the Quakers fell victim once again to a late goal, losing at home to Harvard, 1-0. However, despite the disappointing defeat, the Quakers and their outgoing seniors have plenty of reason to hold their heads high.

Penn men’s basketball couldn’t pull out the win in regulation and in overtime, and Delaware State put together the plays when it needed to as the Hornets won, 77-75.

Has Penn men’s squash turned the corner? Is the women’s squash team finally ready to take down Harvard and Trinity? One is left to ponder the future of both squads after their surprising performances at last weekend’s Ivy Scrimmages.

While Saturday will be all about Al Bagnoli, who will be coaching for the last time at Franklin field, the coach on the opposite sideline deserves his fair share of recognition.

So what are you going to do this Saturday? Homework? No! Watching Netflix? No! How about going to the Palestra to root for your men’s basketball team?

Penn was in the news this week after a controversial video at a University conference re-emerged featuring MIT economics professor Jonathan Gruber, who helped draft the Affordable Care Act, saying the law only passed because of the "stupidity of the American voter."
