| Penn State wins Fiesta Bowl 31-14 over Boise State to advance to College Football Playoff Semifinals | 01 janv. 2025 | 00:22:46 | |
Audrey & Jon share their thoughts on Penn State’s win against Boise State in the 2024 Fiesta Bowl by the score of 31-14. The Nittany Lions jumped out with the early lead on stellar play from the offense led by Drew Allar, Tyler Warren and Omari Evans touchdowns. The defense stifled Ashton Jeanty and Amin Vanover, Dvon J-Thomas, Zakee Wheatley and Dani Dennis-Sutton all stepped up in the absence of Abdul Carter who was out due to injury. Late it was Kaytron Allen and Nick Singleton who took over behind a stout offensive line. The victory James Franklin is his second straight over a top 10 opponent as the Nittany Lions get their 13th win of the season.
