It's not just Drew Allar; the top four quarterbacks in the preseason Heisman Trophy odds have all been disappointing to start the 2025 season.
Drew Allar did exactly what most rational Penn State fans probably expected him to do on Saturday night. With the game on the line in 2OT against the Oregon Ducks in a heavyweight matchup between two Big Ten teams ranked inside the top six, he threw yet another game-losing interception.
After a dreadful performance was somewhat masked by a fourth quarter comeback, largely made possible by Allar making plays with his legs rather than his arm, Ducks safety Dillon Thieneman read Allar pretty much all the way on the opening play of Penn State's half of the second overtime period to quiet the crowd of over 111,000 fans at Beaver Stadium.
