Coming into this game, it was thought by some fans that last week could’ve been a turning point, and there were reasons for optimism. Those reasons were instead a source of pessimism for much of the first half. Apart from a 14 play, 65 yard drive (in which Jayden Limar was resurgent, rushing for 29 yards) which resulted in a field goal, the Huskies seemed off. Demond Williams wasn’t hitting his receivers, often overthrowing, finishing the first half with a line of 6-14 for 36 yards, including 8 straight incompletions. The defense did Demond no favors themselves, getting gashed in the run game by Carson Hansen, who scored early on a pretty easy touchdown run from 12 yards out. Rocco Becht also looked like an experienced quarterback, connecting with Chase Sowell on a 45 yard touchdown pass, en route to a 240 yard day. With 2:44 left in the first half, Cam Wallace ran right through the hole created for him by the Nittany Lion front and joined the scoring with a 44 yard touchdown. The score at that point was 28-6.
