College football: Penn State win over Iowa 31-0.

Sport by : (PRESSBEE) -

Penn State White Out showcased the greatest atmosphere in college football with 110,830 in attendance to watch the No.7 Nittany Lions dominate No. 24/22 Iowa, 31-0.  The second-largest crowd in Beaver Stadium history was graced with a unique experience both inside and outside the stadium gates. However, it's the people behind-the-scenes that set the stage for fans to have an incredible time at Beaver Stadium.  Rebecca Plescia is a director of marketing and fan experience and orchestrates a number of different things that the average fan wouldn't notice. Working alongside Dana Crouse, Plescia evaluates how content on the big screen will look and organizes a full run through of everything a day before the game. 

Defensive player of the game: Chop Robinson had two quarterback hurries, a sack and a forced fumble.

Most telling statistic: The Hawkeyes were held to a mere two first downs through three quarters and four total.

Hidden statistic: Penn State’s defense held Iowa to just 33 plays – an unheard of number. (PSU doesn’t keep a record for fewest opposing plays.)

Drew Allar averaged only 4.4 yards in 37 passing attempts.

Quarterback Drew Allar went 25 of 37 for 166 yards and four touchdowns. KeAndre Lambert-Smith finished with eight catches for 66 yards and a touchdown, while tight end Tyler Warren had two touchdown grabs in the win.

Penn State gouged the Iowa defense with a 12-play, 71-yard scoring drive, capped by an Allar dart to Tyler Warren in the back of the end zone to give the Nittany Lions a 24-0 lead with 1:01 left in the third to ice the game.

Adisa Isaac to give Penn State the ball back in the closing seconds of the third quarter.

When Rodney Martin started calling Penn State club hockey games 24 years ago, he never thought he would be the PA announcer for the White Out. Martin got a call from Crouse about the opportunity to become the PA and was "over the moon" about the chance to work alongside his long-time friend Joe Putnam.   Martin's had this day marked down for a long time and regarded the White Out as an "incredible spectacle." Martin has been inspired by his older brother throughout his life and expressed how Saturday's game will be a "surreal" experience.
