hole inside inside the 30. coming back from an injury in this game a year ago once again this time to give inside to the fullback a little guard trap you're going to see right here right in your face number 50 harding's pulling out influencing so that whitman has an opportunity to run it right up the middle is what penn state wants to do today 19-94 mike archie in back to pass collins has a receiver and touchdown nittany lions they put archie in in the backfield what he does runs a simple out and up he turns it up and makes a great diving catch in the corner of the end zone whenever you see mike archie in that slide it means they're going to try and get a mismatch but one of the things we want to have happen as we see archie once again from a different angle lays out makes the catch we've got a 7-000 that's pavian banks the redshirt freshman he's a speedster but he has very long call in the backfield they will give the ball to cedric shaw and he has met behind the line of strike take a look at the penn state defense chris mozick out of columbia south carolina a six-year senior we'll explain that to you later on a very inspirational story and here's the butkus candidate all-american brian geltheiser out of pittsburgh at inside linebacker and of course tony pittman the name may sound familiar he's the son of former nittany lion all-american running back charlie pittman second and ten no gate on the first down give to cedric shaw inside draw play this time significantly here in state college whitman and carter the ibax back to pass collins has a receiver in the flat that is kajana carter and he will be up over the 40-yard line second and seventh give again the carter off the right side has an opening and he slips down just over the 45 260 pound fullback

they will give inside to archie has an opening 2015 10 5 and touchdown nittany lions 35-yard scamper and mike archie is making this habit-forming here for the beaver stadium sprint draw series and the nice thing about that is the cut back ability and there's the cut i talked about on robinson robinson has no idea what happened and once mike archie gets in the open field with his 4-4 speed it's a touchdown brett conway allen had the point after and it's not pretty brad conway has a ball in the air and tim dwight is smothered their defense off the field first and ten years go back to pass has a receiver bristol second and ten briscoe will pitch the ball this time to shaw finally from the outside he leaped one defender but cannot get by plant holes has a receiver doesn't seem that he will try to throw the ball a very dangerous pass and he has it small though he had it picked off but they say he's out of 5 000 strong watching the nittany lions in the hawkeyes bobby ingram is defended kick his block rolling down to the eight yard line and it will be recovered in the end zone touchdown mickey lyons oh my what else can go wrong for the hawkeyes of iowa phil yabor cody recovers the block

they faked the terry back to pass has a receiver downfield and won't come up in the country but believes in that and i'll tell you why in a minute back to pass again bristol has a receiver and he fumbles the football that was demo and penn state has recovered and who else phil yabo cody collins back to pass has to johnny carter in the flat 40 30 25 20 and carter will score on the first

carter redshirt junior tailback there's the throw out in the flat there's two people out there leading you've got 53 conlon leading a block and once you get a back with the talent of kajana carter in the open field just like a mike archie it's all over especially teams thank you john isn't pumped 28 zip nittany lions high backs ryan terry will check off again slot into the sideline they will give

colin's back to pass has archie the man we just spoke about down field for another completion and that will be good once again again to archie he is down into beaver stadium the gift the kijana carter and he will score [Applause] take a look at the offensive line surge here mike i mean they're just blowing iowa off the football well we keep talking about these great skill position players but let's not forget that offensive line it's an experienced group with grilli rivera and harding's at the guards and conlon and andre johnson at the tackle and that's as good a group as you're going to see this year in the big ten 35-zip crystal has a receiver overthrows it the interception and tony pittman will bring it back to the hawkeye 40 yard line back they go play action front side receiver dean makes the cut but the ball is horribly overthrown pittman does a nice job looking like his dad wearing that same number his dad was of course charlie pittman from the 1968-69 bowl disney lions in the first quarter third and 21 collins this time to ingram inside the slip screen he's got some room and he will break it outside 30-25 back inside 20-10 and he is down inside the five-yard line great athletic ability the flip screen which we saw earlier ingram makes a couple of cuts there's another one to get to the outside take advantage of that 4-4 speed of his he's going to cut it back in and only real good hustle by strong safety pat boone makes the tackle on the 5-yard line nice stiff arm watch ingram use his right hand here to stiff arm just a moment he's going to use it just off one of the linebackers and there's right there push that arm for ingram what a talented young man first and goal four-yard line archie around left side and he will dive over by karchief you're going to see him take the ball right here and the tackle comes up from foot hollow inside out that's 100 200 pound guy mike archie blowing right through foohala first intent 22 yard line to give insight on the draw and a flag and shaw has some running room up over the 40-yard line back to pass driscoll once again has a receiver over the middle and he has him that is nemo odom that he is ridden out of bound insane 95 000 folks here hard to hear back to pass driscoll looking up and has a receiver who will make the catch at the score cedric shaw will get the pitch and will turn the corner and will go nowhere he is met by a host of nittany lions the opening game of the year against minnesota had some problems uh gailzeizer keeps it inside and allows his cohort there really full house backfield and to give on the counter play to rodney fire in the trim at the eight-yard line the fake inside the call bristle runs right has a receiver and has the ball batted here away go play action gets on the corner because of the great block on atkins there's no contain there he's got to run it nice play west palm beach florida will attempt a 25-yard field goal and they fake it and brian miller with another big play coming off the corner didn't go for the faith and make the big tackle jefferson bates the senior the penn state one take a look again here at the fake well i applaud the call but i don't think it's going to fool anybody when you're down 42 nothing and running a fake field goal great job there by number 34 brian miller wally richardson the backup quarterback in and he will give the ball off around left side to stevens over 2100 yards for a season out of the one position back to pass he pumps once pulls it down and we'll tuck it in run we're talking about retention second and six for the hawkeyes driscoll's pass second state college ryan driscoll back to pass and the little shuffle pass the call has some running room and he will be in virginia tech's offensive production this year handoff inside bouncing off one tackle his call it takes it to the 20. shaw and give the ball the shawl he cuts back and there is absolutely nothing there he got it cleaned it up ryan gelsizer the big play middle linebacker could come in after mazeek and make the play on the scrimmage the 13-yard line driscoll rolling right has a receiver and lost it toward the end zone triple coverage my goodness back pedaling and throws it over 30 yards kick is down and hits dallas texas we told you the young hawkeye football team richardson back to pass has a receiver this time he hit the receiver up to the 30 over the 30-yard line that is brian what happened to him in high school when he's lucky to even be on his football field he takes the handoff inside up over the 40 to the 45 pounds healthy and playing like gangbuster now the handoff goes to steven pitts so back up richardson back to pass getting a little pressure has pissed in the end zone and he can't quite hang on steven pitts wide open about two yards the holder is phillip collins the senior wide receiver kick is down and up and it is good so penn state adds to their total with give in the backfield the tailback rising this time inside to call and he is down inside the 40s still rambling on crystal this time the inside handoff again the call they're using the fallback and he is point huskers early because i'm not sure anybody's going to get him late he dumps the pass off the call and he is hit behind the line of scrimmage in the first half the fake draw inside by driscoll back to pass rolling right has a man in the end zone and touchdown hawkeye great catch by harold jasper and a flag on the play you got to expect there may be interference back there they get kids that get 100 to 200 snaps a year take a look at the ball in the sea it looks like they're going to do something to try and get some extra points on side kick it has to go 10 yards and it goes about six penn state will take the ball right there once again to give the pitch has an opening 45-40 watch the surge on this offensive line holm 74. good block inside diaco can't get to the play and it's steven pitts in the open field

lone setback driscoll back to pass has it complete up field we've seen that on the hawkeye offense all afternoon bristol thinks about it and it looks like it's intercepted picked off by marlon forbes pass should never be thrown but marlon forbes has got the guy covered all over he's going to step in front using his body and stays tough with it that's a great play by four fourths of motion freddie scott top of your screen he will give the ball to kijana carter and he will fight his way forward back to pass is collins being hurried and he will be sacked back on about the one-yard line is kim dwight the true freshman out of iowa city rush to punter juror vicious gets it off and dwight will let it hit and roll as it hits inside the 50. good crowd on hand also came from iowa to watch the hawkeyes play driscoll back to pass completes his pass over the middle oh what a lick from clint holes comes right at you here it's the kind of dream a strong kind of hit a strong strong safety dreams about right there is down and two interceptions he gives the ball inside this time to call who spins off a tackle another tackle is being pushed down the football field second and three and at the line of scrimmage call gets nailed almost the 11-yard line hawkeye drive bristol rolling right being pursued by yvo cody throws it toward the end zone has a receiver added to receivers top of your screen trips to the field lone setback they give the ball the shaw and he is nailed he's an academic all-district selection here's to give inside to carter with this kind of coaching they will be well prepared and certainly they were but just couldn't get the break and a misfire from carrie collins up field now one of those names was just set back his call crystal back to pass shuffle pass the call has running room and he is back it's back solid lick back former all big ten quarterback at iowa completion up the field that's for the patty of scott schluster and he will be first down and a little bit of contact they run together in the backfield driscoll they are threatening now to put some points on the board bristol back to pass looking for his tight end and has slutsker to the one-yard line tyler in motion crystal gives the ball to shaw who dives over great call great call bootleg he came off the fake and flutters having a nice day wide open in the corner of the end zone that's a little bit of a gutsy call and chris watch the fake here takes it right in the gut puts it on his hip and the key is that he beat miller to the corner miller had contained did not keep contained in there and mike archie takes it up short kicking on the 15-yard line right through up around the 40. has come out and played with a lot of heart here in the second half third and five for penn state pass he might play some as a wide receiver here indeed he will averaging 41.7 yards on three punts and they can't handle the punt and penn state that was tim dwight the true freshman trying to feel the punt in the pull you should fair catch this ball because he's got somebody in his face ball comes loose mark tate as he has all day right around the football this kid's a hustler on special he says back at quarterback wally richardson and he he stumbles and falls his knee hits and that's where they'll bark the ball for those charlotte nice to come in back to pass richardson looking toward the end zone and just out of the reach of keith olsen on an extremely wet field he takes a step and the kick is up and good 33-yard field goal for brett conway and the score moves up to 48-13 nittany lions over the hawkeyes of iowa and ankle driscoll gives the pitch outside up over the 25 almost a 30 30. this time to give inside heavy lick and almost looked like he was going to fumble the ball he managed to hang 1991 one of the bullets even broke his leg and he has fought back gallantly to play football and the pass intended outside for anthony dean he can't hang on in 1992 against cincinnati in the season opener due to an injury to starter john sacca and he gives the ball to pittman who has an opening 15 10 7 5 3 and written out of bounds at the 3 yard line 52 john hartley toss sweep there's the seal right there hartley doesn't make the play good cut back inside by steven pitts and you can throw all these tailbacks in a hat pick anyone out and he's going to be productive motion this time again the jason slows and he will score a situation he's going to make a block on the backer and allow the full back float in behind him great block by stephen pitts let's see what happens right in behind him for the score this young man saying he has an extremely strong arm rolling and the completion of field of slutsker and flusker will dive ahead first to 10 iowa 41-yard line sherman the inside give this time at shaw and he has running room one man to beat iowa 183 yards rushing back to pass matt sherman has a receiver in the end zone touchdown hawkeye a lot of poise from a young redshirt freshman quarterback matt sherman iowa sets the goal for two the pitch back to shaw around right and he won't go in for the two-point conversion so iowa has got watch for the onside kick here from the hawkeyes once again that's brian hurley and this time he gets the ball in the air and they had a shot at it around the country you had to have some dumbfounded looks from some of the coaches as to my goodness we got to play those guys pitch back running back inside the 40 breaks free down the 30 25 yard line and that is fletcher ambrose the tailback he's the fourth team tailback he's running straight downhill they feel the corner makes a nice cut twirl move hey that's a good looking running back right there and he's barely see he's falling behind first and ten on the screaming the 20-yard line once again the give to fletcher back in beats west virginia last week and here's the young man fletcher down to the 10-yard line third down once again gray has it to the 3-2-1 touchdown nittany lion and that record that we showed you a moment ago goes by the wayside most points scored on the hey give him a chance here it is again 48 gray does a great job he's going to put the head down and like a typical penn state full back bartender on for the point after and make it 62. and the problem handling the snap they'll just throw it toward the end zone and they say no that's kijana carter and he's going to be pretty pleased except for standing in the rain right now and you're up by 40. once again sherman back to pass getting a little bit of pressure gets the ball complete third and long for the hawkeyes less than two minutes to go sherman gets his pass off and it'll be underthrown third and five for the nittany lions they will pitch the ball back once again and what a vicious lick once again the final score here at beaver stadium is penn state 61 iowa 21. stay tuned for lpga magazine coming up next
