Penn State tallied its second interception of the day against CMU as Johnny Dixon went up in the air for an acrobatic pick of CMU QB Daniel Richardson.

Richardson was forcing a throw to a completely covered Carlos Carriere when Dixon gets in front of the ball and pulls down the pick. Watch Dixon’s grab:

It’s not the first shining moment for Dixon, who helped the Lions open the season with a pair of sacks against Purdue in Week 1. Continuing his stellar performance in Week 2, Dixon recorded a sack for his second consecutive game.

Last season was Dixon’s debut, and he certjainly made the most of it. Dixon made 10 tackles (8 solo) with two pass breakups and a half tackle for loss during the 2021 season.

With the interception, it appears that Dixon is ready to continue his dominating performance for the Lions this season.
