PSU WR J'Wuan Murphy outjumps Maryland CB Cedric Landrum to score the game's opening touchdown. PSU would go on to win 37-3.
NITTANY LIONS IMPROVE TO 5-0 WITH 37-3 DRUBBING OF MARYLAND
Press Clippings from Coach Duane's post-game presser...
On the bounce back performance of quarterback James Madsen, who went 26 of 34 for 276 yards in three quarters…
“No surprise whatsoever. After what James went through last year in terms of adversity, this was nothing. I think the catch J’wuan made in the first quarter for the TD gave James a lot of confidence in his receivers. And it was nice to see him run the ball effectively as well.”
On Murphy’s amazing 23 yard touchdown catch to open the scoring…
“I honestly thought it was going to be a pick. The DB had position on J’Wuan but he just went up and got the ball at the highest point. It was an amazing catch. Somebody told me the DB was Cedric Landrum – the kid from Carlisle who we had offered a scholarship to but decided to go to Maryland. I’ve got to check the film on that though.”
On the defence holding Maryland to six first downs and -11 yards rushing…
“They are absolutely scary right now. And we are not doing it with smoke and mirrors. We’re playing a lot of our new 4-2-5 front and most of the time we are in Cover 3. It’s a great thing when you don’t have to go too far down your ready list during the course of a game. It means whatever you’re running is working.”
On another outstanding game from CB Ben Taylor…
“Seven tackles, 3 TFL’s, a sack. Ben is just a gamer. There are practice players and then there are gamers. Here is a kid who we’ve bounced around a bit and was buried on the depth chart to start the season but he’s got the chance and run with it. He’s such a great team guy too – the guys love him and we could be talking about a future captain.”
On CB Justin Scott’s 22 yard interception return for a touchdown in the fourth quarter…
“You are talking about last year’s Thorpe recipient. Teams have been avoiding Justin for obvious reasons thus far. They didn’t on that slant and he jumped it. Great play by a great player.”
