WHAT’S AT STAKE?
Penn State’s margin for error got smaller after its eighth-straight loss in humbling fashion to No. 3 Ohio State last week. The Nittany Lions want to host a home playoff game and must avoid a second loss and potentially falling out of the Top 12 to do so. The Huskies are coming off arguably their best win of the season after holding off a furious Southern Cal charge last week. They’re looking to win back-to-back Big Ten games for the first time under first-year head coach Jedd Fisch.
KEY MATCHUP
Washington’s secondary vs. Penn State’s wide receivers. The Nittany Lions top four wideouts have combined for just 12 catches over the last two games. Meanwhile, the Huskies’ pass defense is the best in the Big Ten and second in the country. They’re allowing just 142 yards per game through the air and have eight interceptions. Three came last week against USC.
PLAYERS TO WATCH
Washington: RB Jonah Coleman ran for 104 yards and two scores last week and appears to be as healthy as he has been all season. Penn State’s defense was outworked by a patchwork Ohio State offensive line last week while Quinshon Judkins and TreVeyon Henderson combined to average 6.2 yards per carry.
Penn State: QB Drew Allar. The junior has had a strong season but ran into trouble last week. Allar was just 12 for 20 for 146 yards against Ohio State and threw an interception in the end zone. He’ll need to be accurate in this one as the Washington secondary excels in tight coverage.
FACTS & FIGURES
