Penn State stuffs Northwestern's 2-point conversion attempt, but the Wildcats lead, 22-21, with 4:51 remaining. that was an 11-play, 75-yard drive in 5:54. so what's it gonna be?

Northwestern is driving. after a Preston Stone completion to Griffin Wilde, the Wildcats have first-and-10 at the Penn State 31. there's 7:40 remaining.

Allen was short. two plays later, Drew Allar pushes in on the sneak to put Penn State back in front. the Nittany Lions lead Northwestern, 21-16, with 10:50 remaining. Devonte Ross & Kaytron Allen have shown up today.

Daniel Gallen @danieljtgallen.bsky.social · 5h

Drew Allar gets the ball to Devonte Ross in space, and he makes something happen. that's a 67-yard catch-and-run down to the Northwestern 19. and Kaytron Allen needs only one carry to take it all the way in for the score. Penn State is back in business.

Tyler Holzworth, touching the football for the first time since Sept. 9, 2023, is indecisive after fielding the ball in the end zone and gets stopped at the 9-yard line. Penn State starts this crucial drive backed up.
