What turned out to be the second best team in the Pac-10 in 1994 traveled cross-country for a showdown with a dangerous Penn State team in week 2. The Nittany Lions jumped all over USC and had 14 points on the board before the Trojans could even run three offensive plays. The offense was flawless in the first half, and the 35-0 halftime score exemplified it all. If it weren't for a dropped pass, and a long ball that was just a bit overthrown, you would have seen Penn State score 52 points, easy. And that's despite the two interceptions thrown by Collins in the third quarter. All-in-all, USC did not show up for this one and were lucky the score didn't look much worse than it ended up being.
Penn State's Top Performers:
Kerry Collins: 18 of 33, 248 yards, 2 TD passes
Ki-Jana Carter: 17 carries, 119 yards, TD
Freddie Scott: 6 catches, 133 yards, TD
Penn State nabbed it's second win of the season and began to prepare for Iowa in the following week while USC checked in at 1-1 for the year with the loss. The Trojans ended 1994 with an 8-3-1 record, finishing second in the Pac-10 and beating Texas Tech in the Cotton Bowl.

Been looking for this game for yrs. I was 3 rows up right in front of the SC cheerleaders and Lynn Swann did the pre game right next to me in the stands. By halftime the older SC fans were in awe of our offense. Many saying it was the best they ever saw. I long for those great days

I was a Junior at Penn State and was in the student section. This offense was second to none. They didn't need to set up the pass with the run, or set up the run with the pass. They could easily do both. And their defense was good enough to stop an opponent when it counted. They should have won a 3rd outright national title that year. Nebraska won the title that year. Which was a bunch of BS. The people who voted felt bad for Osborne because he never won one. If Penn State played Nebraska that year for the title, Penn State would have won by at least 10 points.

That was the most balanced & most dominant offense in college football history. They had 5 teams down by 30 at the half. Didn't just score 30. They LED BY 30. Two of them top 10 all-time programs in Ohio St. & USC (who both finished ranked in T20) by 35-0. They averaged 250 YPG in both rushing & passing despite not playing the starting ball handlers on O in the 4th qtr. in at least 6 games. The game that cost them the unanimous national title was Colorado's lucky hail mary win over Michigan. If Michigan wins, then the win by Neb. is reversed because PSU beats the un-beaten No. 2 team & not Neb. Also, the Big 10 was very good that year & better than the the Big 12.

I was at this game and had a great view from the north upper deck of Carter's run for the first TD. 2 USC guys had a perfect angle on him and somehow he ran around them. Never seen anything like it before or since in 33 years of having season tickets. He should have been knocked out of bounds at the 20.

People forget how unimpressive Kerry Collins was in 1993. Yeah he looked like he had a terrific arm and size in 1993 but he was very erratic and for every great throw he made make an equally terrible throw or decision. So, with that in mind, we didnt know what to expect from the Penn State offense in 1994, we knew Ki-jana Carter was for real, that was for sure but aside from that we expected a 10-2 or 9-3 season but when I saw this game and how that offense went down the field time and time again at will, holy shit man. They had 353 yards of offense at the half to USC's 70 yards lol, and this was in 1994 when teams still preferred to run it rather than pass it in college. Everyone in this offense was stellar that day, Freddie Scott may have been the best player on the field that day.
