Against Indiana, this Penn State football team showed they have the resilience and mettle that may have been missing the past couple of years.
After heartbreaking defeats against Ohio State in 2017 and 2018, the Nittany Lions followed it up with letdowns the next week. Those letdowns were against inferior but good Michigan State teams, and it killed Penn State’s playoff hopes each time.
After a heartbreaking defeat last week in Minneapolis, many believed the Lions could be heading toward another letdown.
Indiana came into this game 7-2 with their only losses to Ohio State and at Michigan State.
