Stats and Storylines: 10 Sacks, 10 Gifs

Penn State handled the Boilermaker offense for most of Saturday, giving up just one touchdown in the second quarter. After scoring on the first four possessions, Sean Clifford threw a rare interception and Purdue took the ball the length of the field for its only points of the day.

The Lions’ offense went six consecutive possessions without a point following the interception. Noah Cain led a dominating drive that ended with a touchdown for the freshman running back in the fourth quarter. It was a scoreless stretch lasting a couple of quarters of game time, but for some anxious fans, it seemed like years.
