Let me be the first to admit that I thought Penn State was going to blast Central Michigan all the way back to their home state after the way the first quarter played out, but I was singing a much different tune in the second quarter. Still, despite Central Michigan coming back to tie things up at 14-14, it never felt to me as though Penn State was in any real serious danger of coughing up a loss against the Chippewas on Saturday afternoon in Beaver Stadium.
Here are my five takeaways from Penn State’s 33-14 victory over Central Michigan to improve to 4-0 this season.
