Impact Play: A Straight Line Is The Shortest Distance

Penn State was in a tight game against Iowa, leading 17-12, needing one more first down to win the game. It was 3rd and 3 with 2:18 left on the game clock.

The Lions turned to the hot hand on Saturday, freshman running back Noah Cain. He needed just three yards to ice the game, six to surpass 100 for the second time in his career. He got 8, much of which was after contact. Three plays later Sean Clifford took a knee and Penn State collected the win.

Setting the Stage

Penn State had two wide receivers split to the top of the screen.
