Gameday Grades: Penn State

FINAL: Penn State 45 App State 38

Grades:

Quarterback: A-

Across the board, redshirt sophomore quarterback Zac Thomas had a great night. He put up 270 yards and two touchdowns on a 65 percent completion rate. Although he threw an interception, it was on a good pass that the defender made an amazing play on. Thomas also ran for 43 yards and another touchdown. He played well enough to win and was in a great position to, but it just didn’t happen. For Thomas to play so well, especially in such an intense atmosphere and against such an elite defense, was a relief for Mountaineer fans.
