Penn State coaches discuss fixing struggling run game ahead of Buffalo matchup

Summary

The Nittany Lions have not had a 100-yard rusher or a single run longer than 16 yards this season. Despite recent victories over lesser opponents, the running backs have struggled, averaging just 155.5 rushing yards per game. Mouser took responsibility for the run game’s shortcomings and emphasized the need for improvement ahead of Saturday’s final non-conference game against Buffalo.
