What is the story about?
1) Killer turnovers
Penn State held on for dear life for most of the game. In the third quarter, Michigan used three Rocco Becht turnovers —two interceptions and a fumble, to put the game out of reach.
2) A little bit of courage
Michigan was doing nothing on offense with Bryce Underwood at quarterback. In the second half, Kyle Whittingham decided to give Tommy Carr a try. It worked out well for them.
I wonder if there’s a backup Penn State —what am I saying Matt Campbell would rather go 3-9 than bench Becht.
3) Inopportune big plays
The approach of forcing them to drive
down the field was working all first half. The combination of a competent quarterback switch, and the inability to stop the run finally catching up to the team, sealed it late.
