Penn State Nittany Lions Game Notes
Drew Allar (undisclosed) was observed in uniform but was not throwing the ball during practice Tuesday, Audrey Snyder of The Athletic reports.
Coach James Frankin previously set the expectation that Allar will be playing this Saturday against Michigan State but his non-participation draws a question mark on his status. More news will surface regarding his availability as the week progresses.
Michigan State Spartans Game Notes
Katin Houser was 26-for-41 passing for 245 yards, three touchdowns and two interceptions during Saturday’s 24-21 victory against Indiana. He also had seven rushes for 11 yards.
Houser threw for three scores on the day, connecting with tight end Maliq Carr on a 36-yard strike with just over a minute to playto put the Spartans up for good. Despite turning the ball over twice, the redshirt freshman quarterback threw for a career-high 245 yards to go with his first career three-touchdown performance. Houser will look to build on this performance in the Spartans’ season finale against Penn State on Friday.
