STATE COLLEGE, Pa. (AP) — The Penn State quarterback job is still officially a two-man rotation according to coach Joe Paterno.
On the field, it sure looks like Matt McGloin is the go-to guy in the huddle over Rob Bolden for the 16th-ranked Nittany Lions.
The passing game very much remains a work in progress in Happy Valley. Lately, though, McGloin has taken the majority of snaps, to varying degrees of success.
The most important measure of success to the Nittany Lions (8-1, 5-0 Big Ten), though, is their record. They enter the bye week with a surprising two-game lead in the loss column over Leaders Division rivals Ohio State, Purdue and Wisconsin.
The confident McGloin said he’s always felt a leadership role on the offense, regardless of whether he’s in the game.
