Penn State falls to Northwestern 34-13: Live postgame reaction

Penn State loses to Northwestern 34-13 and is now 3-2 on the year and 0-2 in Big Ten play. The Nittany Lions are in a free fall heading into the White Out against USC.

040

Jon Sauber @jonsauber.bsky.social · 5h

Another pass tipped at the line, this time it's picked off. I have to wonder if we're going to see Alex Manske at some point soon.

220

Jon Sauber @jonsauber.bsky.social · 6h

That's a big stop for the defense. But it's hard to believe the offense is going to be able to do anything with it.

030

Jon Sauber @jonsauber.bsky.social · 7h

Turns out "taking the points" doesn't guarantee you three. I'd have gone for that.

220

Jon Sauber @jonsauber.bsky.social · 7h

This is an unmitigated disaster for the Penn State defense. No answer for the Wing T. 24-7, Northwestern.

080

Jon Sauber @jonsauber.bsky.social · 7h

Becht missing all sorts of ways right now and it's stalling the offense out on most of its drives.

281

Jon Sauber @jonsauber.bsky.social · 7h

Northwestern punting when they've gotten whatever they want on the ground. Gonna qualify that one as A Decision.

040

Jon Sauber @jonsauber.bsky.social · 7h

Chip Kelly going Wing T because this offense is getting whatever it wants on the ground.

010

Jon Sauber @jonsauber.bsky.social · 7h

That's a bad decision by Becht. Can't throw that far short of the sticks on third down. He's been off again tonight.

370

Jon Sauber @jonsauber.bsky.social · 7h

The middle of Penn State's defense is getting absolutely torched in the run game. As bad as we've seen this group play against the run.

150

Jon Sauber @jonsauber.bsky.social · 7h

That's a really big touchdown for Penn State. Felt like this one could've been slipping away, but some good red zone execution gets them on the board with a Carson Hansen rushing touchdown. 10-7, Northwestern.

070

Jon Sauber @jonsauber.bsky.social · 7h

Think the receiver just fell on that DPI call. But Penn State gets the turnover anyway on the next play. Feels like a ball don't lie situation.

031

Jon Sauber @jonsauber.bsky.social · 8h

Penn State goes into the second quarter down 10-0. Too much passivity again, but this time the defense is getting gashed early.

020

Jon Sauber @jonsauber.bsky.social · 8h

Another fourth-and-short punt. Brutal.

130

Jon Sauber @jonsauber.bsky.social · 8h

Penn State gives up the long run on a fullback dive two plays before Aiden Chiles sneaks it in for a touchdown. This is...not good. Northwestern leads 10-0.

030

Jon Sauber @jonsauber.bsky.social · 8h

James Peoples starts at running back for Penn State.

030

Jon Sauber @jonsauber.bsky.social · 8h

Penn State bends but doesn't break. Looked like Alex McPherson got the pressure before Tony Rojas ultimately got the sack. Northwestern leads 3-0.

020

Jon Sauber @jonsauber.bsky.social · 12h

Views from today’s office. Penn State will take on Northwestern here in the new Ryan Field. Kick is set for 7 p.m. CT.

Penn State's Saturday night loss to Wisconsin felt eerily familiar to the ones it was handed early last season. On the Nittany Lions, what went wrong, and where they go from here: www.centredaily.com/sports/colle...

Déjà vu? What another late loss means for Penn State football moving forward

Is this a case of, “Meet the new boss, same as the old boss”? Or are this staff and these Nittany Lions different?

Jon Sauber @jonsauber.bsky.social · 27/09/2026

Luke Fickell punting here is certainly a choice.

100

Jon Sauber @jonsauber.bsky.social · 27/09/2026

Penn State goes into the fourth quarter with a fourth down and short that I would, unsurprisingly, go for.

230

Jon Sauber @jonsauber.bsky.social · 27/09/2026

And Becht goes right back in.

100

Jon Sauber @jonsauber.bsky.social · 27/09/2026

Alex Manske is in at quarterback for Penn State.

000

Jon Sauber @jonsauber.bsky.social · 27/09/2026

Penn State settles for the field goal after an up-and-down drive from Becht. Some big plays with his legs, mixed in with a couple of bad misses.

030

Jon Sauber @jonsauber.bsky.social · 26/09/2026

Defense does its job, again, and forces Wisconsin to settle for a field goal. 17-10, PSU leads.

021

Jon Sauber @jonsauber.bsky.social · 26/09/2026

Becht's pass gets deflected at the line and Wisconsin picks it off. Big drive for the defense here.

000

Jon Sauber @jonsauber.bsky.social · 26/09/2026

Penn State ends the half with a coward's draw. Bad offensive first half for the Nittany Lion offense. The defense is going to need more help than its gotten to this point.

050

Jon Sauber @jonsauber.bsky.social · 26/09/2026

Wisconsin with a good offensive drive on the ground. First non-garbage time touchdown the Penn State defense has given up this year.

040

Jon Sauber @jonsauber.bsky.social · 26/09/2026

Great design to go 14 personnel, send Peoples in motion and call the draw for Becht. Penn State up 17-0.

040

Jon Sauber @jonsauber.bsky.social · 26/09/2026

In Colton Joseph's defense, Daryus Dixson was wide open.

150

Jon Sauber @jonsauber.bsky.social · 26/09/2026

Penn State's defense was due for a big one. Josiah Zayas gets the pick-6 to make it 10-0. Great job of reading Joseph's eyes and making the play.

061

Jon Sauber @jonsauber.bsky.social · 26/09/2026

Penn State's offense is struggling for the first time since the first half of the Temple game. A few misfires by Becht killed that drive after a promising start.

011

Jon Sauber @jonsauber.bsky.social · 26/09/2026

Penn State's redzone struggles continue. Nittany Lions settle for a field goal attempt. Rocco Becht has already hit a few tight window throws today. Thought that last one had a chance before it was batted down.

010

Jon Sauber @jonsauber.bsky.social · 26/09/2026

Quinton Martin Jr. starts the second Penn State drive at running back.

000

Jon Sauber @jonsauber.bsky.social · 26/09/2026

Penn State's defense picks up where it left off in non-conference play. Got Wisconsin off schedule and forced Colton Joseph to throw the ball, which is going to be a winning formula.

000

Jon Sauber @jonsauber.bsky.social · 26/09/2026

Views from today’s office. Penn State will open Big Ten play with a matchup against the Wisconsin Badgers here in Beaver Stadium. Kickoff is set for 5 p.m.

When QB Rocco Becht was a high school recruit, he chose Iowa State and Matt Campbell over Bowling Green. As a transfer, he picked Campbell and Penn State over several other Power-4 programs. On Becht, his trust in his coach, and his path to Penn State: www.centredaily.com/sports/colle...
