For the second consecutive season, No. 22 Penn State has defeated Auburn as the social media page of the Nittany Lions trolls Auburn after the win. Penn State had a huge second-half performance by defeating Auburn on the road, 41-12.

For those unaware, Auburn fans have a longstanding tradition of TPing trees at a popular Toomer’s Corner location. They will not get to exercise that tradition after Week 3.

Penn State led 14-6 at halftime, but the Nittany Lions outscored Auburn 27-6 in the second half to get its third-ever win over Auburn in program history.

Penn State outgained Auburn in total yards accounting for 477 to 415. Two of the biggest keys of the game from Penn State’s rushing game and their ability to force turnovers from Auburn.

Penn State rushed for 245 yards and 5 five touchdowns on 39 rushing attempts against the defense of Auburn. The defense of Penn State forced Auburn to turn the ball over four times.

Penn State has won its third game this season as Central Michigan will be the next opponent in Week 4.
