Condensed game rewatch: The 2020 Penn State at Indiana instant classic

As we wait for the 2021 rematch, take a look back at an IU win for the ages.

Indiana opened the 2020 season with its first win over a top 10 team in 33 years.  In a fourth quarter and overtime that had enough drama for an entire season, IU stunned No. 8 Penn State 36-35.

Trailing 35-28 after Penn State scored first in the overtime period, IU responded with a touchdown and decided to go for two and the win.  Quarterback Michael Penix escaped the pocket and stretched out for the pylon. The ruling on the field was a successful conversion, and after a lengthy review, a tantalizingly close call was upheld.
