Penn State made fewer plays than Minnesota for the totality of the game. That said... Penn State also has very legitimate complaints to make about Daniel George's offensive pass interference and the no-call on the interception in the final series.

Penn State hoops just went to Georgetown, played flat-out harder than its hosts, built a big lead, never let it get below 5, hit 13 3-pointers, and won by 15, in a game the Hoyas were favored to win.

I should be less surprised by this, but, nonetheless: Penn State is 28-4 as favorite since 2017. Only played 35 games in that span! Just three dog games @ OSU '17, vs. OSU '18, and @ Michigan '18. Hard to exceed expectations when expectations are to win 92 percent of your games.

Penn State, absent its second-leading scorer, outplayed Purdue in its gym for all but four minutes tonight. Wins its seventh Quad 1 game in 10 tries. Wins its seventh-straight overall. Improves to 19-5 on the year, 9-4 in the Big Ten. Will be even-odds or better in 5 of last 7.

Penn State almost annually knocks someone off. - No. 6 Michigan last year. - No. 4 Iowa in 2017. But those games were in mid-February. This one, beating No. 4 Maryland 76-69 tonight, is in December and makes Penn State 1-1 in conference. Seems a tone-setter more than anything.
