STATE COLLEGE –  Penn State’s 46-10-win Saturday vs Ohio was an example of how to draw up a game vs a Mid-American Conference opponent.  Penn State dominated from start to finish.  The Nittany Lions’ rushing game came to life. PSU’s defense played tough and put forth a solid effort. Players began to emerge as leaders on the team this season.

Coach James Franklin commented post-game on one of his points of emphasis this season. That emphasis is to get experience to as many players as possible. “We got a ton of experience for a bunch of guys,” said Franklin. “Young players need to make a big play.” Young players did make plays in this one.  The young player that really stood out was Freshman Nick Singleton.  Nick carried the ball ten times for 179 yards and two TD’s. Nick had TD runs of 44 and 70 yards.

Quarterback Sean Clifford did a great job spreading the ball around to his receivers today. Sean was 19-27 for 213 yards and no picks Drew Allar in a reserve role tossed two scores as well.

Penn State outgained Ohio 572-264 on total yards with 27 first downs.  Now can the Nittany Lions expect this level of production when they travel to Auburn next week.
