They'll have their shot against the No. 3 Buckeyes on Saturday in the Horseshoe, a place where Penn State hasn't won since 2011.There weren't many of those in the first half of the season, when the Nittany Lions found different ways to blow out every opponent they faced.helped the offense run over Illinois, Iowa and Northwestern. Special teams lifted the Nittany Lions to their latest win with a pair of punt return touchdowns in the rain that jump-started them against UMass.
Except for its 17-14 victory over then-No. 9 Notre Dame, Ohio State has had an equally easy time with its schedule."I feel really good about the team," Allar said."I think we've done a great job of improving our process each week and just focusing on ourselves and correcting the mistakes we've made so far. We've just got to keep building on that."
"We always talk about enjoying the moment, enjoying the win, then taking some time to flip the switch," tight endsaid."We had a lot of focus and attention this week coming into this game, and we're definitely going to have to make sure we have all of our ducks in a row for this next week."While Penn State hasn't won in the series since 2016, each of the last six games has been decided by an average of eight points.
