9 totally random thoughts after Rutgers loses to Penn State | Janarion Grant a step slower

UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. -- When your offense is almost entirely run-based -- as is the case for Rutgers -- two things happen.

First, you play short games.

Penn State's 35-6 victory against Rutgers on Saturday took 2 hours, 51 minutes to complete, marking the first time that a Rutgers game has been completed in less than three hours since the 2010 home loss to Tulane.

Second, you make the job easy for a good defense like Penn State's. That much was obvious Saturday at Beaver Stadium.
