Penn State football is 5-0 and ranked No. 4 in the country after a 27-11 win over UCLA on Saturday at Beaver Stadium.

The Nittany Lions got off to a slow start, but the offense and defense did plenty to win. It wasn’t a flashy game, so nothing went terribly wrong or amazingly right. Let’s break down how things went for each position group.

Quarterbacks: B

Drew Allar had another efficient outing, as he completed 17-of-24 passing attempts for 237 yards and a touchdown. He also had a rushing touchdown but posted -3 rushing yards. Beau Pribula, meanwhile, only had six rushing yards on two carries without attempting a pass.

Running Backs: B-

Nick Singleton didn’t play, but Kaytron Allen still did well. He rushed for 78 yards and a touchdown, with 3.7 yards per carry. Quinton Martin Jr. wasn’t heavily utilized in the run game, as he only had one yard on one attempt. However, he had three catches for 18 receiving yards.

Allen and Singleton balance each other out when they’re both on the field, which makes containing them difficult for opponents. Allen said he missed playing with Singleton after the game, but he still had a good game.

Wide Receivers: B-

Liam Clifford was the star of the show with 107 receiving yards. He was an explosive play threat throughout the game, with all three catches worth more than 20 yards. The highlight was a 57-yard pass that set up a fourth-quarter field goal.

Trey Wallace had three catches for 46 yards, and Julian Fleming added two more for 27. Omari Evans, who has been a consistent deep threat at times this season, only registered one reception for three yards.

Tight Ends: B

Tyler Warren had three catches for 28 yards and a touchdown, becoming the program’s all-time leading scorer among tight ends with 17 total touchdowns. Khalil Dinkins got involved with one catch for six yards. True freshman Luke Reynolds did not register a reception on the day.

It was another good performance for a group that continues to impress every week. The tight ends have been the most consistent unit on the field besides the running backs, and that was once again the case on Saturday despite not having an explosive day.

Offensive Line: B

The offensive line’s biggest victory was only taking one penalty, a holding call against Nick Dawkins. The group also gave up a sack and a quarterback hurry. The offensive line deserves credit for allowing Penn State to gain 85 rushing yards and generally keeping Allar upright in the pocket.

Front Seven: B-

The front seven held UCLA to 93 rushing yards, including -14 in the third quarter. It had 5.5 tackles for loss, four quarterback hurries, and three pass breakups. The group did an effective job chasing Justyn Martin and Co. around the backfield throughout most of the game, but it lost grade points for a slow start in the first quarter.

Secondary: B

The secondary held the Bruins to 167 passing yards. Martin had a decent outing but had several instances when he struggled to find receivers covered by defensive backs. Keeping UCLA to just a touchdown and a field goal is always impressive, especially in a Big Ten game.

Special Teams: B

Ryan Barker had a good outing in his first start as Penn State’s kicker, going 2-for-2 on field goal attempts and 3-for-3 on extra points. Martin’s kickoff return for 27 yards was a sign of what could be to come from the true freshman.
