Penn State is playing without six of their defensive starters and their defensive coordinator as they take on #21 Arkansas in the Outback Bowl. They started the game with a horrific missed field goal in their first drive.
After driving the ball down the field on a seven-play, 57-yard drive, Arkansas had a chance to take the lead early in the game. Instead, Penn State senior safety Ji’Ayir Brown intercepts Arkansas quarterback KJ Jefferson in the end zone.
Ji’Ayir Brown plays a great brand of defense https://t.co/sKzDXXohzP

This was the fifth interception of the year for Brown, the most on the team. He is a third-team All-B1G selection this season.
Penn State had a chance to capitalize off a rare mistake from Jefferson, but two plays later Penn State quarterback Sean Clifford throws an interception.
