Northwestern Returns Interception For Touchdown, Looks To Upset Penn State

Northwestern is taking it to Penn State.

Northwestern dominated the first half against Penn State and is taking it to the Nittany Lions some more in the second half. The Wildcats took a 14-3 lead into the half and it felt like the lead was at least double that. On Penn State's first play in the fourth quarter, Anthony Walker intercepted Christian Hackenberg and returned it for a touchdown. they missed the extra point, so the play netted a 20-6 lead.

On Penn State's next play from scrimmage, Hackenberg was absolutely blown up and turned the ball over again. Northwestern got a field goal out of the possession and took a 23-6 lead 23-6 with little over ten minutes left in the game.
