Inside the Box Score: Key stats from Penn State’s win over Auburn

Let’s break down the box score from Penn State’s 28-20 victory over Auburn

Auburn Tigers Offense

Bo Nix – 21/37, 185 yards

Bo Nix had a solid game and did what he needed to do to move the offense down field, despite not a ton of passing.

Tank Bigsby – 23 carries for 102 yards and 2 touchdowns

Tank Bigsby had an impressive game. As a sophomore, he is continuing to put himself on the map and show, as an underclassman, why he is one of the best running backs in the country, running with patience and elusiveness while being tough to take down.

Kobe Hudson – 4 receptions for 66 yards

We didn’t see a ton of production in the passing game from Auburn tonight, as they saw more efficiency in the run game. Hudson did have a key drop, but he still ended up being the top receiver for Auburn.

Auburn Tigers Defense

Auburn’s defense got involved early in this game. However, they did give up some big plays that ended up being key turning points in this game. Regardless, it was still a nice showing against a top ten team in the country.
