Penn State football's Saturday afternoon was expected with a 46-11 win over Nevada at home. The Nittany Lions (1-0) started off on a great foot, highlighting the difference makers that will define their 2025 season. Dani Dennis-Sutton on defense and the new-and-improved wide receiver unit were the standout components of Penn State's game.

Quarterback Drew Allar wasn't the star, but he put together a solid performance from the pass game to his confidence to making smart, quick decisions to take advantage of the non-conference opponent.

Allar had a 84.6 completion rate and 167.4 quarterbacking rating against the Wolf Pack.
