A Penn State football offense that had averaged 55.5 points per game during its 4-0 start to the season, fell off to average of just 21.5 points per game in each of its last two contests. Both of which resulted in losses. The fast-scoring, momentum-shifting drives seemed to evaporate when the Nittany Lions needed it most.
There’s plenty of hope still. This offense has so many weapons and it can bounce back but the time is now. The next four opponents (Indiana, Iowa, Michigan and Wisconsin) have a combined record of 19-7. Penn State will need its high-octane attack if it even hopes for more than an even split.
