Franklin on Penn State snap counts: "We've been very, very strategic"
Penn State football is 8-1, coming off a lopsided 35-6 victory against Washington. The game was one of Penn State's most complete performances of the season, especially in the first half, where the Lions raced out to a 28-0 lead. However, a disjointed effort in the third quarter, highlighted by a Tyler Warren fumble two plays into a game-defining drive, halted a complete blowout during the game. The resulting 15 minutes of gameplay allowed Washington to mathematically linger as a viable threat. It continued a season of games where Penn State has put fewer games away early. The only true blowout his season is a 56-0 win over Kent State in the team's second game and a 34-12 victory over West Virginia on the road in a disjointed game featuring a 2.5-hour weather delay. So what's going on?
