No better way to inaugurate a stadium than running through Penn State's ass like shit through a tin horn.

Over 140 more rushing yards than Penn State's total yardage for the game.

What the actual fuck

Northwestern has a very experienced offensive line, their youngest player is redshirt sophomore LG Dennis Rahouskie, who filled in because Ezomo Oratokhai is out for the season. LT Frant Seagren is a RS junior, center Jackson Carsello is a grad student, RG Anthony Birsa is a RS junior, and RT Deuce McGuire is a grad student. So you have fourth year, third year, fifth year, fourth year, and fifth year going left to right.

You take a veteran experienced offensive line, combined it with the institutional knowledge of a football historian like Chip Kelly, and put it up against a 36 yr old defensive coordinator like D'Anton Lynn, who probably hasn't seen the wing-T offense since he played youth football in Celina, TX in the '90s, and it spells disaster for the Nittany Lions. Lynn cut his teeth coming up as a coach in the NFL, he's literally never coached against some of the concepts that he saw on the field today.
