University Park— More than 114,000 fans— most of them rooting for Penn State— saw a PSU loss.
Penn State has set a new home attendance record five times since 2018, and all five times, it’s lost the game.
Matt Campbell was still at Iowa State for four of those losses, and Saturday night, he got to experience his first Penn State White Out.
The crowd was electric. The stands were packed, and had Penn State won, it would have been a perfect night.
But it didn’t, and Campbell expressed his disappointment in that after the team’s 31-23 loss to USC.
WHAT CAMPBELL SAID
“First of all, the most disappointing part for me is that we can’t give this incredible fan base, which showed out, the result it deserves. It was an unbelievable atmosphere. It was one of the most impressive environments I’ve been able to coach in or be a part of.

I know I’ve said this this week, and I’m going to continue to say it: We do have great humans in that locker room who stand for what’s right. There was growth forward. We’re not where we need to be yet, but we are growing forward, and we’ll demand a pathway forward because we’ve got such a great fan base, and they deserve that.”
Penn State hits the road against Michigan.
Kickoff is a scheduled for 3:30 on FS1 Saturday.
