Penn State vs Indiana Game Preview
Why Penn State Will Win
How fast can Penn State refocus?
Yes, it lost to Michigan, and yes, it gave Ohio State a run before succumbing late in the 44-31 loss, but a New Year’s Six bowl game is still on the table by winning out against Maryland, Rutgers, Michigan State, and by starting against the Hoosiers.

Indiana is dead last in the nation in time of possession, and it’ll show.
