From Saquon Barkley to Michael Mauti, Nittany Lions of all ages returned home to cheer on Penn State. Here’s a quick look at Saturday night’s de facto reunion.
The team welcomed former cornerback Adam Taliaferro as its honorary captain. Best known for his recovery from a serious spinal injury, Taliaferro told his story at ESPN’s College GameDay Saturday morning.
Linebacker U certainly showed up to support Brent Pry’s defense with appearances from Gerald Hodges, NaVorro Bowman, Brandon Bell, and Michael Mauti.
Former 2009 team captain Daryll Clark also made an appearance representing the quarterback room.
