00:00Penn State SMU, you're looking at these players, higher or lower, who stood out to you?

00:09Kevin Jennings, the quarterback for SMU, has averaged over the last five weeks 306 passing

00:15yards per game, has thrown 13 touchdowns, 5 interceptions.

00:19You look at his total today, 233.5.

00:22I'm going higher, higher, 233.5, 250, 260 plus for Kevin Jennings.

00:29They're averaging 267 passing yards per game.

00:33I think he gets it done on the road today.

00:35And I will say with Jennings, a question that we, I think I had around Rourke, now he failed

00:41ultimately, but man, if Rourke looks great, let's talk about how good is he relative to

00:45the field.

00:46I think that question sits out there for Kevin Jennings, Ben, where he could, we could, if

00:51we leave this game with an upset, we might go, that's the most dynamic player in the

00:55playoff.

00:56And this number is fascinating, 225 passing yards, at least for Kevin Jennings in all

01:01nine contests for the Stangs in ACC action.

01:05Leecey Guy, only two quarterbacks though, over that number, higher than that number

01:09against Penn State's defense this year, Connor Bazalack for Bowling Green, and of course

01:13in the Big Ten title game for Dylan Gabriel.

01:16The other quarterback in that equation though, Leecey Guy, Drew Allard, somebody I know you

01:21don't always have the most confidence in, how do you approach Penn State's quarterback

01:25in this matchup?

01:26Well, without the games that Penn State has won, they are very dominant in terms of the

01:30rushing attack.

01:31They're averaging 201 rushing yards per game.

01:33They rushed for 292 in the Big Ten championship against Oregon, but lost that matchup.

01:39Drew Allard has a passing total today of one and a half passing touchdowns.

01:43I'm going lower.

01:45I believe that he doesn't hit that number today.

01:48And the reason why is if Penn State's going to win this matchup, they need Nick Singleton,

01:52they need Katron Allen to be effective in the rushing attack, to keep him into short

01:57third down type of situations.

01:59I think a lower scoring game favors Penn State, so I'm going lower under, excuse me, lower

02:05one and a half passing touchdowns.
