From our staff, some quick facts and figures from Penn State's victory over Youngstown State on Saturday:
Home cooking: The Lions have won 10 straight games in Beaver Stadium.
Ground attack: Penn State’s 389 rushing yards were the most since they gained 390 against Michigan State in 2002 (279 of those were by Larry Johnson).
Were we that good? The Lions’ 568 yards of total offense vs. the Penguins were the most since the 661 they put on Rutgers in 1995.
His best game: Junior backup tailback Rodney Kinlaw had a career-high 86 rushing yards on six carries (14.3 average). His previous best day was 50 yards against Akron in 2004.
Getting his kicks: Kevin Kelly’s six field-goal attempts vs. Youngstown were the most by a Penn State kicker since Travis Forney attempted six in 1999 against Michigan State. Forney also attempted six field goals that year at Minnesota.
