Ethan Grunkemeyer continued to look much improved from the guy who had to face three of the most fearsome defenses in college football. He hasn't thrown the football much , but when he has, he has looked sharp and smooth. He certainly looks like he could be the guy for the future in State College if he can prove he's ready to take his play up a notch with better playmakers around him.
231 combined rushing yards
It wasn't all about just Kaytron Allen in this win. With 2 touchdowns today, Nicholas Singleton tied the all time record for most touchdowns in Penn State history.
