The Penn State Nittany Lions found a way to win on the road against the Wisconsin Badgers last weekend, improving to 7-0 on the season and 4-0 in conference play. While it’s always nice to avoid an upset in a tough environment, the Nittany Lions were dealt a major injury scare as their starting quarterback, Drew Allar, missed the entire second half of the game due to injury.
Beau Pribula played exceptionally well in his place, but that was against a Wisconsin team that hasn’t exactly lit the world on fire this season. With a matchup against the No. 4 Ohio State Buckeyes on deck and the College Football Playoff not far behind, having Allar healthy and able to play is crucial for the Nittany Lions.
Fortunately, it sounds as if Allar is set to play in Saturday’s game. According to Pete Nakos of On3Sports, Allar has participated in practice all week and is set to play against the Buckeyes.
