Penn State football defeated Maryland 30-0 in an embarrassing defeat for the Terrapins, who gained 27 total yards in the first half of the game. Meanwhile, Penn State raced out to a 27-0 lead and coasted to a victory in the second half. Today, we'll focus on the offensive side of the ball and what caused Penn State to have so much success running the football.  But as always, it's not a Penn State game without an obsessive fixation on the quarterback position. And as always, Sean Clifford did nothing to alleviate our pains in discerning controversy from fan impatience for the future. So despite more than a four-touchdown win, we'll examine the Penn State passing attack with a critical eye to determine what made the score "closer" than it should have been.
