Julian Sayin, Jeremiah Smith and Carnell Tate made the nation's No. 5 passing defense look like a junior varsity squad on Saturday.
Penn State entered with a secondary known as a strength of a talented but downtrodden football team, but Sayin torched the Nittany Lions, throwing more touchdown passes than incompletions. He went 20-of-23 for 316 yards and four touchdowns with no interceptions, an incredible 87% completion rate and 13.7 yards per pass attempt.
Tate and Smith were there to help Sayin along the way with some spectacular catches, as Tate finished with five receptions for 124 yards and a touchdown, and Smith collected five receptions for 123 yards and two touchdowns.
