Penn State suffers first loss of the season

The Penn State Nittany Lions suffered their first defeat to the Ohio State Buckeyes Saturday.

Heisman candidate, Marvin Harrison Jr. Led the Buckeyes to a 20-12 victory.

Harrison Jr. Recorded 11 catches for 162 yards and a touchdown.

Penn State’s Curtis Jacobs nearly scored a defensive touchdown in the first half, but a defensive holding penalty on Kalen King negated the score.

Ohio State (7-0) would score that same drive, going into the second half with a 10-3 lead.

The offensive woes continued for the Nittany Lions in the second half.

Alex Felkins converted his second field goal for the only score that half.

Penn State (6-1) quarterback Drew Allar struggled to connect with his receivers throwing 18 for 43 for 191 yards. Allar threw a late-game touchdown pass to Kaden Saunders.

Saunders touchdown came with less than a minute left in the game and was followed by an unsuccessful onside kick from the Nittany Lions.

Penn State has now lost seven straight games against Ohio State, their longest active losing streak to an FBS team.

The Nittany Lions look to rebound as they host Indiana (2-5) next Saturday.
