Penn State regains lead late
KJ Hamler got the Nittany Lions' drive going with a toe-tapping first-down catch. Three plays later, Trace McSorley let it loose, tossing it to the end zone, but overthrowing his receiver. Not long after, McSorley converted on third down with a 21-yard pass. The Spartans held strong on a first-and-goal scenario, making Penn State fight for yards and the Nittany Lions settled for a field goal.
