Penn State Outlasts Illinois 30-13 in Big Ten Opener: Post-Game Link Dump

Let’s start with the fun stuff. Trey Potts’ touchdown pass? That was awesome.

Drew Allar didn’t have a perfect day in his first road start. The sophomore hit on 16 of his 33 pass attempts (including a couple of drops by wideouts). Check out his approach here.

Much of Penn State’s scoring came off of big plays from the defense, which finished with a jaw-dropping five forced turnovers on the day.

Despite some of the blemishes on either side of the ball, a win is still a win, and there were several positives to highlight ($) as the Nittany Lions now dive headfirst into conference play.
