On Saturday September 30, 2023, I attended a college football game in Evanston, Illinois at Ryan Field on a bright sunny and seasonably warm day. The Pennsylvania State University Nittany Lions took on the Northwestern Wildcats. Northwestern got off to a quick start scoring a field goal on the opening drive. Penn state responded with its own field goal. Northwestern then went up 10 to 3 in the second quarter but Penn State evened up the score going into halftime. Northwestern looked good in the first half but unfortunately things did not go there way in the third quarter as Northwestern failed to convert on a crucial 4th and 1 and Northwestern attempted a fake punt that failed to convert. In the fourth quarter, Northwestern quarter back Ben Bryant was knocked out of the game and Northwestern quarterback Brendan Sullivan came on in relief. Penn State won the game with a score of 41 to 13. Northwestern quarterback Ben Bryant finished 14 of 25 with 125 yards. Northwestern wide receiver A.J. Henning had a good day on kick returns going for 78 yards on 3 attempts. For Penn State quarterback Drew Allar finished with 189 yards in the air and one passing touchdown.
