Penn State finishes its 2022 regular season in style Saturday, defeating Mel Tucker and Michigan State, 35-16. Four-year starting quarterback Sean Clifford played arguably the best game of his career, completing 19 of 24 attempts for more than 200 yards and four touchdowns.

“I thought [Sean Clifford] did what he typically does, he manages the game extremely well and gets us in the right runs, gets us in the right protections and makes the plays when he needs to,” James Franklin said following the game.

Blue White Illustrated photographer Daniel Althouse was at Beaver Stadium Saturday for the season finale. Fans can check out his photo gallery here.
