3 Bold Predictions for Penn State Football’s clash with Michigan

1. Sean Clifford runs for over 50 yards on the ground and scores a touchdown with his legs 

Since suffering an apparent rib injury against Iowa, quarterback Sean Clifford has not even really attempted to use his legs which have been such a key to his success in the past and in the beginning of this season.

Against Iowa, Clifford has rushed for 36 yards in essentially only one quarter and rushed for 58 yards the week before against Indiana. In his last three games, the fifth-year senior has rushed for negative yardage, despite saying he is 100%.

Clifford has though looked better and better each week since looking hobbled against Illinois, and this could be the week he gets back to using his legs, because he may have to.

Michigan possesses one of the best pass rushes in the nation, thanks to defensive ends Aidan Hutchinson and David Ojabo, who could be a matchup nightmare for Penn State Football’s offensive line.

One way to negate that pass rush can be Clifford burning them with quarterback scrambled when they get too far upfield on a rush or get out of their rush lanes.

A healthy Sean Clifford could have a big game with his legs, and even fins the end zone with his legs in this one.
