For the first time since 2008, Penn State football is 11-1.

The Nittany Lions wrapped up their 2024 regular season with a Senior Day victory over Maryland at Beaver Stadium. Despite a shaky start, Penn State handed the Terrapins loss No. 44 in series history by way of a 44-7 rout and clinched a bid to the Big Ten Championship.

Our photographers were at the game to cover all of the action. Let’s see how the cold and chippy game unfolded.

The team arrived at the stadium and was greeted by a long line of brave fans weathering the cold temperatures.

Soon after arriving, the players hit the field to begin warming up. Some opted to wear fewer layers than others.

The pads were finally on as kickoff inched closer.

After a slow start from the Nittany Lions, including a fumble from Nick Singleton on the opening drive, the running back found his way into the end zone for a 2-yard touchdown, making the score 10-7 in favor of the Nittany Lions.

It was all Penn State in the second quarter. Beau Pribula joined the touchdown party for the Nittany Lions to extend their lead to 24-7.

Tyler Warren brought in Penn State’s fourth touchdown of the second quarter and the Nittany Lions entered the half with a 31-7 lead.

For most of the second half, the Nittany Lions ran the ball and milked the clock until the game’s end. Singleton found the end zone for the second time in the game for an 18-yard score and extended the lead to 38-7.

Tensions were raised postgame after freshman Tyseer Denmark scored one last touchdown for Penn State as time expired. James Franklin and Maryland’s Mike Locksley exchanged words at midfield.

With Michigan’s surprise upset of Ohio State, the Nittany Lions rang the Victory Bell with plans already set to travel to Indianapolis, Indiana, the next week to face Oregon for the conference title.
