We should roll ISU pretty hard in this game. We're coming off of one of our worst defensive games, but we had the bye week to try to get healthly and work on some things. I really don't see us giving up 5.8 per rush like we did against ISU, and ISU's passing game isn't exactly lighting it up this year. I think the defense will rebound and hold ISU to under 24 points.
On offense, this could get ugly for ISU. The offensive line is starting to click on their blocking schemes and that compiled with the mixture of shotgun and under center run/pass play calling has nullified the ability to cause problems with the PSU offense with the blitz. We're seeing better routes and White and the receivers are generally more in tune with each other. Add to this the fact that we're playing in a dome that doesn't get very loud and we're on very fast turf, and you have a long day for the ISU defense.
Blowout win by PSU this week.
