**Penn State vs Indiana Game Predictions (Thread)**

Penn State gets off to a good start with Ford returning the opening kick out to around midfield. Cain punches in a TD from inside the 5 and PSU is out to an early 7-0 lead. The defense bends early, but holds IU to a FG (7-3)...

... PSU sputters a bit on their next few drives, punting once and settling for a FG, while the defense gives up a TD drive to make it 10-10. Clifford leads a long drive before half, capping it off with a TD pass to Ford out of the backfield to make it 17-10 PSU going to half...

... IU gets a FG on the first drive of the 2nd half to make it 17-13. PSU leans on the run game on the subsequent drive and scores a TD to go up by 11, a lead they won’t relinquish. PSU’s depth begins to show through in the late 3Q/early 4Q and IU begins to wear down a bit...

... both teams will tack on 10 more points, with IU’s final TD coming in garbage time for a relatively stress-free 4Q. Nittany Lions get the win and start the season 1-0! ...

.... key players/performances:

- Clifford 250 yards passing, 2 TD
- Strange/Ford TD reception each
- Cain 125 yards rushing, 2 TD
- Toney 2.5 sacks
- Pinegar 2/2 FG, 4/4 XP
