The final offensive play of the game for Penn State, a fourth down attempt that was not converted, has gotten the attention that it deserves following a tough loss to Ohio State. Prior to that play each team had attempted two fourth down conversions and both sides converted once.
We took a look at the two chances that Penn State had on defense to hold against 4th and short and were pleased with the results. Even though the Buckeyes got a first down on its first attempt, by the nose of the football, the play by Brent Pry’s defense was solid.
