A year after Northwestern took the Big Ten conference by storm and put a dent into the Lions 1995 season, Penn State was out to prove itself in a huge way in this late season match-up. The Lions started fast, but we pick up in the video just after a bomb from Richardson to Jurevicius to get the offense moving. Turnovers and pressure on the quarterback was the story of the game for the defense, while steady running and explosive passing plays were the theme for the offense. Keep an eye on Jim Nelson #44 for Penn State throughout the game, it truly is a treat to watch him play as physical as he did, literally wearing out the NU offense.
Penn State Top Performers:
Joe Jurevicius: 3 catches, 131 yards, 1 TD
Kim Herring: 2 interceptions
Brandon Noble: 3 quarterback sacks
This victory was Penn State's eighth win of the season while holding two losses. Northwestern fell to 7-2 with the loss at Beaver Stadium, and would finish the 1995 season with a 9-3 record, a loss to Tennessee in the Citrus Bowl, and a number 15 ranking in the AP Poll.
