Penn State Manhandles Maryland 30-0: Game Recap

On a rainy Saturday in mid-November, Penn State notched its eighth win of the season, beating Maryland 30-0.

The Terps got the ball first at their 11 after an ill-advised decision to return the kick from the end zone, and promptly went three-and-out, thanks to a Zane Durant sack on third and eight.

Penn State started their first offensive drive in Maryland territory, and marched 47 yards in nine plays, keyed by hard-nosed running by Nicholas Singleton and a third-down conversion on a pass to the flat from Sean Clifford to Brenton Strange that the tight end took down the right sideline to give Clifford the most passing yards in Penn State history.
