Penn State entered play Friday night with one very interesting distinction, epitomizing Micah Shrewsberry's assertion early this season that three is better than two.
The Nittany Lions led all Power 6 teams in relying on 3-point shots, according to this fascinating graphic that clearly came 21 years too late for former Penn State sharpshooter Joe Crispin's liking!
True to form, eight of Penn State's first nine shots Friday night against Lafayette came from behind the arc. And even though the Lions were doing exactly what they wanted to do, they still trailed 19-12 in the early going.
