Some of Penn State’s best all-time wide receivers, not surprisingly, have been responsible for turning in some of the program’s biggest single-game performances. But in the history of the Penn State program, just four games have seen a Penn State wide receiver eclipse the 200-yard mark, and it has happened just once since 1995.
Bobby Engram, the program’s all-time leading wide receiver, owns two of Penn State’s all-time 200-yard receiving performances, with one against Rutgers in 1994 and one more against Purdue the following season. Engram owns three of Penn State’s top-10 single-game receiving games, as he took advantage of a dreadful Rutgers program once more in 1995. Allen Robinson left his mark on the Penn State single-game receiving top 10 as well with three games standing out in the record books.
Penn State’s leading receiver heading into the 2021 season, Jahan Dotson, also makes an appearance on the top 10 list. And given that Dotson wants to leave a legendary mark at Penn State, he might just find a get another top 10 single-game performance in the top 10 before the end of the season.
Here’s a look at Penn State’s top 10 single-game receiving performances prior to the start of the 2021 season.
