Game was really odd statistically
So glad we won ! PSU had 204 yards rushing. Their WR's may have been negative for the day on yardage. The TE got most of the passing yardage and the back got some. ND out passing ALLAR by almost double , 267 to 135. Jeter going 2 for 2 obviously a key stat ! Wild game.

Penn State with two scores aided by refs
One directly with the INT.
Then the missed hold puts them in a very tough down and distance.
Usually the team that runs for more wins, but PSU rushing was mostly in first half. Riley really
showed up despite interception to lineman who dropped into coverage. Our #20 is outstanding. Reminds me of Rocky Bleier.
Only 60 some of the rushing yards were in the 2nd half fortunately.

Yes It was unsustainable to keep going like that. Lots of holding not getting called on PSU though

That drove me crazy.

That was ridiculous. No shortage of PI calls on the Irish though.
