Quarterbacks

Trace McSorley is a winner and he played the game of his life Saturday against one of the best defenses in the nation.

Despite getting pressured and battered a ton by Wisconsin in the first half, McSorley played magnificently and was named the game’s MVP. He set Big Ten title game records for yards with 384 and touchdown passes with four.

This kid is a gamer, a fighter and a winner. I don’t know what more to say about his performance except that it was a magical performance and one of the best evenings in Penn State football history.

Perhaps we should just leave it with the nickname bestowed on him by play-by-play announcer Gus Johnson during the game. The Wizard of Camelot.

Grade: A+
