Player to Watch from both sides
Ohio State
TreVeyon Henderson, Running Back – In order for Ohio State to win this game, it’ll need to get things going on the ground. The most explosive playmaker in the backfield has been out the last couple of weeks, but the expectation is he’ll be ready for this one — hopefully. Henderson will need to tote the mail, but do it in chunks against a very good Penn State defense to open things up for Kyle McCord and the receivers through the air. If he can’t go and is held out again, OSU will need to find a way to steal yards on the ground by committee.
2023 stats
44 carries for 295 yards (6.7 avg.), 5 TDs
3 receptions for 45 yards
Penn State
Drew Allar, Quarterback – The Nittany Lions have a great one-two punch in the backfield with Kaytron Allen and Nicholas Singleton, but the game might be won on the arm of new signal-caller and Ohio native, Drew Allar. He’s been very good so far in 2023 but has yet to show big play ability down the field. He may need to find something more through the air in this one to lead his team to a victory in hostile territory.
2023 stats
118-for-181 (65.2%) for 1,254 yards, 12 TDs, 0 INTs
