Well, we all know how this one ended.

Marking its first visit to Happy Valley since joining the Big Ten, No. 6 Oregon made its way across the country to face No. 3 Penn State in the annual White Out game. In a heartbreaking double-overtime loss, the Nittany Lions fell just short to the Ducks.

As always, our photographers were on the scene to capture every moment of the action.

Be there, be early, be loud…. at the tailgate lots.

Thousands of fans welcomed the Nittany Lions as they arrived at Beaver Stadium.

Warmups began as Beaver Stadium started filling up.

With warmups complete and a few reps in pads under the players’ belts, it was time.

This is why they call it the greatest show in college sports.

After a slow first half, strong defense on both sides led to a 3-3 score at the intermission.

Even with the temporary stands, Beaver Stadium had its second-biggest crowd in Beaver Stadium history with 111,015 fans in attendance. That’s just 15 people shy of the record set last season vs. Ohio State.

And just like that, it was the fourth quarter. Trailing 17-3, Drew Allar completed a 35-yard touchdown pass to Devonte Ross, keeping Penn State’s hopes alive.

The Nittany Lions were not going to finish without a fight.

After an Oregon punt, Penn State had seven minutes to make its comeback.

With a mix of runs from Nick Singleton, Kaytron Allen, and 60+ yards through the air from Drew Allar, the Nittany Lions were finally in the red zone.

With 30 seconds on the clock, Allar completed a 7-yard pass to Ross. With an extra point from Ryan Barker, the game was tied 17-17.

Beaver Stadium was electric as the game headed into overtime.

Oregon won the toss and chose to defer, leaving the Nittany Lions with the first possession. In just three plays, Kaytron Allen boomed into the end zone.

Even after a fumble and a fourth-down conversion, the Ducks couldn’t be stopped as the game headed into a second overtime.

The Ducks had possession first, scoring on their first play. Dani Dennis-Sutton picked off Dante Moore on the subsequent two-point conversion attempt, leaving the Nittany Lions only down by six.

However, in one snap, the game was over. Allar threw an interception to Dillon Thieneman. The Oregon Ducks defeated the Nittany Lions 30-24, marking Penn State’s first White Out loss since 2019.

As Penn State lined up for the alma mater, a chorus of boos and chants of “Fire Franklin” echoed through the stadium.

The Nittany Lions came up just short in their Big Ten opener, but despite the setback, their playoff hopes remain alive, especially with the expanded 12-team format now in its second year.

The Nittany Lions head to Pasadena, California, to take their first and longest road trip of the season as they face the winless UCLA Bruins at the Rose Bowl.
