Sunday Recap: Koby Howard's Breakout, a Stingy Defense & What's Next
Penn State opened the Matt Campbell era with a clean, dominant 45-0 win over Marshall, and we're breaking down what stood out.
Koby Howard had a breakout performance — 161 yards and five explosive plays — and we discuss his growth in consistency and ball security. We also dig into the run game's room for improvement with Carson Hansen and James Peoples, and a front seven that flashed real promise led by Max Granville and Caleb Bacon, even without piling up sacks. Finally, we discuss why building depth and confidence now matters as Penn State heads to Temple in week two.
