Penn State gets the job done despite sloppy start

The Penn State team played an uncharacteristically sloppy game in the first half against Minnesota. The team had a blocked punt and extra point in the closing minutes of the first half, leading to nine points in the final two minutes. 

The offense struggled to run the ball, gaining just 19 positive yards in the first half on the ground. In turn, quarterback Drew Allar did most of the heavy lifting, passing for 159 yards in the first half and running it in from four yards out of a score that put Penn State within one before reserve defensive tackle Kale Artis allowed the extra point to be blocked and returned for a touchdown. 

The defense put together more of its third-quarter magic. After an opening drive for a field goal, the Lions forced back-to-back three-and-outs, allowing the offense the breathing room for a touchdown drive to go ahead with the lead in the fourth quarter. 

After a close call on the second drive of the fourth quarter, the Penn State defense held at the goal line to force a field goal that cut the lead from four to one. 

Penn State's offense iced the game after that with a scoring drive.
