IU @ Penn State







Penn State forced eight punts, two turnovers and blocked a field goal to lift the Nittany Lions to a 24-0 victory over Indiana.

Sean Clifford threw for 178 yards and three touchdowns, Jahan Dotson caught a pair of touchdown passes, Brenton Strange added one and Jordan Stout added a 50-yard field goal in the fourth quarter in the Nittany Lions' ninth straight victory. It was the first time the Hoosiers failed to put points on the board dating back to the 2000 season when the Hoosiers fell to #18 Michigan 58-0.

The Hoosiers played well enough on defense and held Penn State’s big-play offense to just 14 first-half points. Offensively, however, Indiana had very little going on. Penix completed just eight of his first 19 throws for 109 yards and one interception before he went down in the third quarter separating his shoulder. No matter who Indiana’s QB is moving forward, they’ll need more help from everyone around them if this team wants to make any progress.
