Coach Pat Fitzgerald :
Coach:
On Saquon Barkley: "Maybe the best player I've ever seen on tape...He?s just absolutely spectacular. He?s great in the run game, he?s great in protection, he?s great catching the ball in the backfield, he?s a great return man, he does it all.? Fitz compared Saquon Barkley to Ron Dayne, Darnell Autry, Le?veon Bell, and many other.
Fitzgerald compared Trace McSorley to the one and only Dan Persa! Also said Penn State?s secondary was the most impressive that Northwestern has seen. Most improved area for PSU: kicking game.
On the four plays that cost them against Wisconsin: ?You can?t play 60 plays well and 4 plays poorly on defense. We should?ve been better on all those, not to discredit Wisconsin, but we should?ve made all those plays.?
Justin Jackson ?felt better today than he had in a month?. He?s been banged up since Bowling Green, apparently.
"We've got to play better at right tackle. That performance was not good enough."
