WATCH: DE Shareef Miller confidently explains the key to slowing down Dwayne Haskins
It sounds like Penn State’s defense is confident heading into Saturday night’s big-time showdown.
Confidence is one thing. Slowing down Ohio State QB Dwayne Haskins is something else entirely. Through four games, no one has been able to do that. Haskins has completed 75.7% of his passes and has thrown for 16 TDs with just one interception.
Despite the challenge ahead, Nittany Lions DE Shareef Miller believes the defense can take care of business. Miller believes the key to slowing down Haskins is to get in the backfield and hit him throughout the game. He even claimed a couple of teammates who played with Haskins said the Buckeyes’ QB will “fold” when hit a lot of times during the game.

Miller will certainly be a key part of Penn State’s attempts to get to Haskins. He has six TFL and three sacks already this season.
Who do you think comes out on top in Saturday’s big game?
