This game was something else.
Five turnovers, seven penalties and 17 points later Penn State somehow found a way to win it’s Big Ten home opener. Coach James Franklin is going to have a lot to look at over the next two weeks as the Nittany Lions prepare for Michigan in Ann Arbor.
For now, let’s look at what is arguably the ugliest report card of the season for Penn State.
Quarterback
Grade: D-minus
[autotag]Sean Clifford[/autotag] demonstrated today that as the season progresses the staff may need to install more plays and packages for [autotag]Drew Allar[/autotag]. Clifford’s arm was exposed by the rain and the field conditions, and that can’t happen as this season goes. By playing Ohio State and Maryland late in the season, the Nittany Lions may encounter this kind of weather or worse down the stretch. Best to keep Allar warm in case of emergency.
