With 43 days until Penn State football, what better time to revisit another Saquon Barkley stat?
Saquon’s 43 career rushing touchdowns during his three seasons in Happy Valley comfortably gives him the program record, edging out Lydell Mitchell’s 38. Barkley scored just seven times on the ground during his freshman season before exploding for a conference-high 18 rushing TDs in both 2016 and 2017. Mitchell, however, still holds the single-season record with 26 ground scores in 1971.
Nicholas Singleton has a real shot at breaking this program record in 2025 as he currently sits at 32 with his entire senior season ahead of him.
