bretticus733 6 Penn State didn’t look as polished on offense against an Illinois defense that had been struggling. Still, it was a classic PSU win with a suffocating defense. Their game against Iowa could be a very low scoring affair.

Due_Connection179 8 Last Week #10 at Illinois : Won 30 - 13. Penn State didn't dominate this week, but they didn't look in danger during this game either. A little concerning that they had two FGs under 30 yards, but they got the job done.

Next Week vs #25 Iowa : Prediction Win by 10
GatorBolt 8 They took care of business against Illinois, even if it wasn't pretty. I think they're capable of sneaking up on Michigan and Ohio State.

throwaway_6786 7 Allar made a couple mistakes, but still played solid overall in his first road game and PSU was very much up to the challenge on defense, shutting down the Illini for most of the day and collecting 4 interceptions. Biggest concern for the Lions is the O-line, which was thought to be a strength coming into this season. A Whiteout showdown with Iowa awaits.

cfbpeoplespoll 9 Defense is absolutely legit, but the offense is a potential problem area. QB play is questionable and red zone offense needs to be a lot better. I expect PSU to be better as the season goes on.
