Penn State Football S Jaquan Brisker

Just like Jahan Dotson and Brandon Smith, Brisker is one of Penn State Football’s top players, and he too played great for the Nittany Lions as they got the win over the Auburn Tigers. Brisker had six total tackles (three solo) and also had a tackle for loss.

Auburn had a lot of success running the football most of the night, and Brisker stepped up bigtime in run support from the secondary. The first two levels of the defense struggled at times to bring Tank Bigsby to the ground, but the Penn State secondary, led by Jaquan Brisker, was always there to clean it up.

Brisker played well in pass coverage too, especially down the final stretch of the game. On Auburn’s second to last possession, Brisker was in coverage on the fourth down incompletion to turn the ball back over to Penn State.

A few moments later, he had a pass deflection on the final play of the game, as Auburn tried for one last shot towards the end zone.

Jaquan Brisker continues to show why he is one of the best safeties in America.
