This is an easy one. In the past decade, the best quarterback in Penn State Nittany Lions history spent three years leading the Nittany Lion offense. Quarterbacking this squad is Trace McSorley.
When McSorley took over for an injured Christian Hackenberg in the Gator Bowl following the 2015 season and nearly rallied Penn State to defeat Georgia, it was clear he had the potential to be special. In his Penn State career, McSorley went 31-9 as a starting quarterback. This included a Big Ten Championship, Fiesta Bowl victory and a Rose Bowl appearance.
