Penn State quarterback Drew Allar looked every bit of the highly-touted talent he's been heralded as, carving up a beleaguered Maryland defense for four touchdowns, including three in the first-half, as the No. 9 Nittany Lions jumped on Maryland early in a 51-15 rout Saturday.
Penn State tight end Theo Johnson celebrates after his touchdown with offensive lineman Olumuyiwa Fashanu and others during the first half of an NCAA college football game against Maryland, Saturday, Nov. 4, 2023, in College Park, Md. losing streak has reached four games, the longest since a seven-game skid to end coach Mike Locksley’s first season in 2019. The Terrapins haven’t won since beating Indiana Sept. 30.
Maryland would drive their next possession into Penn State territory, but their momentum was snuffed out after receiver Tai Felton had the ball stripped by Adisa Issac at the 37. Allar’s second touchdown pass — a shovel pass from the 2 to Theo Johnson after Allar took a reverse pitch from reserve QB Beau Pribula — was unconventional but produced the same result and a two-score lead after one quarter.
Five plays later from the Penn State 7, Tagovailoa, flushed left, hit a wide-open Hemby on the sideline for a walk-in touchdown. It would prove to one of few bright spots for Maryland in front of the first sold-out crowd at SECU Stadium — helped by a strong showing from visiting fans — since playing these same Nittany Lions in 2019.
