Inside the box score: Key stats from Penn State’s thumping of Michigan State

Penn State had an impressive night in the final box score against Michigan State, and not just the score.

You don’t even have to look at the box score to know just how much Penn State dominated Michigan State in the final game of the regular season. The final score pretty much sums it up quite nicely, because it was every bit as lopsided as the 42-0 score would suggest. And it could have been even worse if the Nittany Lions didn’t leave some points on the field in the first half.

Penn State’s defense continued to do what it does best with pressure on the quarterback and stuffing the run. And the offense put together a big night on the ground from its rushing leaders and got a big night through the air from its starting quarterback.

Here is a look at some fo the key stats from Penn State’s big win over the Spartans.
