Harrison Wallace III has left Penn State and committed to Ole Miss out of the transfer portal

Penn State had to wait a little longer than it would have liked, but got a near-perfect result in Morgantown Saturday with a 34-12 win over WVU

Led by QB Drew Allarย (11-17, 216 yards, 3 TD) and Harrison Wallace III (five catches, 117 yards, 2 TD) and a dominant defense (no touchdowns allowed until the fourth quarter), Penn State weather a 139-minute rain delay to beat WVU, 27-12.

Penn State and West Virginia played to a scoreless first quarter, with both teams fumbling on consecutive plays.

On the first play of the second quarter, Allar hit Tre Wallace for a 50-yard touchdown.

Penn State then went for two and didnโ€™t get it, but still led 6-0.

PSU kept it rolling on its next position with a 10-play, 71-yard drive that took 3:45 and ended on a 20-yard pass from Allar to RB Kaytron Allen.

West Virginia finally scored on its next possession, but Penn State limited to damage to a field goal, still holding a 13-3 lead. WVU got three more on its next drive to make it 13-6.

Penn State added another touchdown on the last offensive play of the first half on an 18-yard strike from Allar to Wallace.

Then, the weather delay happened.

But Penn State kept it up after the weather delay, ending its first drive of the second half with a 40-yard TD run by Nicholas Singleton. Singleton ended the day with 107 yards and a touchdown on 11 carries.

West Virginia scored to make it 27-12 but Penn State responded with a 19-yard TD pass from Beau Pribula to Tyler Warren.

Penn State will look to keep it going next Saturday when it hosts Bowling Green in its home opener at Beaver Stadium. Kickoff is scheduled for noon on the Big Ten Network.
