Week 11 Games of the Week
These are two of the three best teams in college football when it comes to scoring defense, but can the Nittany Lions offense score enough points to win? Penn State did hang 51 on Maryland last week, but the team totaled just 240 total yards of offense in a meeting with Ohio State a few weeks ago. That’s a performance that is hard to ignore against a Michigan defense that just might be the best in all of college football. The Wolverines are fourth in the nation in Havoc this year, so they certainly won’t let Drew Allar and Co. get comfortable. But the Nittany Lions are third in Havoc themselves, so they’ll be hoping that they can stall Jim Harbaugh’s offense. The problem is that Michigan is very talented on that side of the ball, with quarterback J.J. McCarthy and Blake Corum both being elite at their respective positions. Penn State is also just 1-9 straight-up and 4-6 against the spread as an underdog of 3.5 to 10 points under James Franklin.
