On offense, Kaytron Allen dominated the game for Penn State, who ran through the Indiana defense with ease. Allen forced multiple missed tackles on the way to 85 yards rushing and three touchdowns to go, with two catches for 72 yards. Allen caught a simple check-down from quarterback Sean Clifford and then weaved through the Indiana secondary to set up a go-ahead touchdown moments later. He finished with three touchdowns to power the Nittany Lions to the blowout.
Drew Allar continues to impress
With a blowout win comes the backup quarterback. Penn State fan’s favorite reserve player, Drew Allar, impressed in his 20-plus minutes on the field, throwing two touchdowns, including a strike from the one-yard line to Harrison Wallace. Clifford had an up-and-down day, throwing a bad early interception, but fighting back with several good throws on the run to generate explosive yards to receiver Mitchell Tinsley.
