Urban Meyer compares Penn State's speed and space to Ohio State's atop B1G
Penn State may not be getting the same national attention as Ohio State. It isn’t as highly-ranked.
The Nittany Lions may not be as experienced in some spots. And, Penn State doesn’t have two Heisman Trophy candidates in the top five in terms of betting odds.
However, life in Happy Valley right now is pretty good. The team is 8-0, just like Ohio State.

On Monday night, during Urban Meyer’s appearance on Big Ten Network, he talked about Penn State’s defense before getting into the offense and comparing the speed to Ohio State’s:
"They're the ultimate, right now, along with Ohio State, as far as speed and space."

Yes, Penn State has a really good defense. However, nobody thought the offense would be this good. The speed and space that is apparent every time the Nittany Lions take the field is second-to-none in the conference.
That includes the Buckeyes.
And as Meyer said, wide receiver K.J. Hamler is as good as there is in the conference as well. Look out Buckeyes, Penn State is coming for you on Nov. 23 in Columbus.
