Penn State strikes first against Ohio State with Brenton Strange TD
Published:
Penn State is off to a tremendous start against rival Ohio State.
The Nittany Lions got the game’s opening touchdown as quarterback Sean Clifford hit Brenton Strange for the score from 5-yards out.
Clifford ran a play fake and rolled out to his right and found the tight end right outside the end zone before Strange bullied his way in.

Clifford definitely looked as close to 100% as possible on that drive as he was throwing and moving with a purpose. The Nittany Lions are hoping to get back on track after getting upset last Saturday by Illinois. The game went to 9 OTs before the Fighting Illini finally broke through.
Ohio State is looking to continue to control its own destiny as winning out would mean a spot in the B1G Championship Game. The Buckeyes answered with a field goal after that Nittany Lions touchdown.
The game is currently being televised by ABC.
