Dennis-Sutton teamed up with Abdul Carter to form 1 of the best pass rushing duos in all of college football. Carter led the team with 12, with Dennis-Sutton 2nd with 8.5 sacks.
He had arguably the best performance of his career in the game against Notre Dame. He finished with 6 tackles, 2 sacks, 1 FF and 1 interception. At 6-foot-5, 272 pounds, Dennis-Sutton is a rare combination of size and athletic ability.
Despite losing in the CFP semifinals, the Nittany Lions figure to be 1 of the best teams in all of college football once again. Quarterback Drew Allar will also be back, and he figures to be 1 of the top Heisman Trophy candidates in all of college football in 2025.
Dennis-Sutton could be playing for a new defensive coordinator in 2025, as Penn State DC Tom Allen is being looked at as potentially the new defensive coordinator at Clemson.
