EAST LANSING – Understated by nature, Jim Bollman had a lot to say about the next great defensive front the Spartans will face, a front he said is "in that discussion" as the best they've seen this season.
Penn State's defensive line is anchored by senior defensive tackle Anthony Zettel (West Branch), junior defensive tackle Austin Johnson and senior defensive end Carl Nassib – who leads the nation in sacks with 15½ but who played limited snaps in last week's loss to Michigan because of an undisclosed injury.
That front is the top asset for the Nittany Lions (7-4, 4-3 Big Ten) as they try to upset No.
