Re: Ohio State - Penn State Game Thread

Here's a few tidbits as well:

Penn State had won 18 of their last 19 games at home before last night.

Going into last night, Penn State was 7th in the nation in total defense and 4th in scoring defense.

From Pat Forde:

"Stat of the day: Against a team that had forced 60 punts this year, Ohio State never kicked it away once.

Runner-up stat of the day: A Penn State team that came in leading the nation in sacks at 4.4 per game got one -- and it didn't record that one until the fourth quarter.

Third-place stat of the day: Opposing offenses were converting 32 percent of their third downs against Penn State. Ohio State converted 12 of 16 Saturday night."
