Penn State Football went from having one of the nation’s deepest backfields to losing Journey Brown and Noah Cain less than a week apart from each other

Penn State Football now faces a serious dilemma with Noah Cain out for the season.

The Nittany Lions were already down a running back with Journey Brown likely out for the season. Cain was being counted on to replace Brown, but he was injured just minutes into Saturday’s 36-35 loss to Indiana.

Without their top two backs, and facing an 0-2 start with Ohio State coming to town this Saturday, what does the team do now?
