Sean Clifford makes Penn State Football history in win over Villanova

Sean Clifford was 19/26 for 401 yards and four touchdowns in Penn State Football’s win over Villanova on Saturday.

Penn State Football quarterback Sean Clifford is now only the second quarterback in program history to throw for 400 yards in a single game … and he is the first to do so on United States soil.

Christian Hackenberg is the only other quarterback in school history to throw for 400 yards in a single game. He threw for 454 yards in a win over UCF in Dublin, Ireland in week one of the 2014 season, the first game of the James Franklin era.
