Penn State is having a great bounce-back season, literally flipping the script on last year’s 0-4 start to start 4-0 this season. The Nittany Lions have shot up the AP Top 25 and checked in at No. 4 in this week’s rankings.
Clifford is a big reason why, with his 289.5 passing yards per game and 19.8 rush yards per game.
The Nittany Lions currently lead Indiana 7-0 at Beaver Stadium on ABC.
