In 2023, Penn State welcomed Iowa for the first time since the two teams played at Kinnick in 2021. You know, the one where Penn State’s starting quarterback Sean Clifford got injured, and backup Ta’Quan Roberson struggled to snap the ball, let alone produce any meaningful offense? The one where Iowa fans ridiculed defensive tackle PJ Mustipher after suffering a season-ending injury?
I remember that one, and I can bet you the team remembered it as well, as they unloaded on the Hawkeyes when they came to town 2 years later.
The defense allowed just 76 total yards of offense.
