Midweek Musings - Fourth Quarter

We are at the three-quarter mark of the 2024 season. Penn State has played nine games, with three to go. Maff.

The Lions have been tested, though the goalposts have been moved periodically throughout the season.

First, a road test at West Virginia was going to test the Lions - they ran away with it, 34-12.

Then, a home get well game against Bowling Green turned into an unexpected shootout.

A couple weeks later, Illinois was going to spoil things, only to be shut down 21-7.

USC was reeling and was going to be a fairly easy road game, then the Trojans raced out to a 20-6 lead before the Lions came back to win it 33-30 in overtime.

Wisconsin, then, would be the big hurdle, on the road, at night.…
