Penn State's five freshmen are using the non-conference slate as a chance to gel with their teammates.
This is the Nittany Lions' second scheduled 3:30 kickoff this season.
The Nittany Lions were 1-for-16 on third down attempts.
The drop comes after the Nittany Lions' 20-12 defeat by the Buckeyes in Columbus.
Penn State's head coach went for it on 4th-and-4 in his own territory with seven minutes left in a close game.
