Nothing has gone right for Penn State during its homecoming game against Northwestern Saturday afternoon. Things got so bad that on a fourth down play in the fourth quarter (while already trailing 23-6), one of Penn State’s linemen blocked his own man.
Yes, Penn State pulled a Florida!
Take a look at this epic moment of ineptitude as guard Brian Gaia (No. 72) blocks tackle Andrew Nelson (No. 59).
PENN. STATE. FOOTBALL. http://ift.tt/1DJfR9Y
— Brian Prewitt (@brprewitt) September 27, 2014 Despite starting 4-0, the Nittany Lions have struggled to run the football all season behind a line that lacks experience and depth.
Coming into the game, the Nittany Lions were 108th in the country in rushing yards per game. After a day where PSU has averaged just two yards per carry, that number will surely get worse.
