 Drew Allar, Penn State, Player News

  10/12/25 - QB Drew AllarSr/2026, Penn State, 6-5, 235 (DS#3 QB) + More +

  James Franklin is out at Penn State. The school fired the longtime head coach on Sunday, less than 24 hours after a 22-21 home loss to Northwestern all but ended whatever remote chance the preseason No. 2 team had of reaching the College Football Playoff. Terry Smith will serve as the interim head coach for the rest of the season for the Nittany Lions (3-3, 0-3 Big Ten), who began the year with hopes of winning the national title only to have those hopes evaporate by early October amid a string of losses, each one more stinging than the last. Penn State, which reached the CFP semifinals 10 months ago, fell at home to Oregon in overtime in late September. A road loss at previously winless UCLA followed. The final straw came on Saturday at Beaver Stadium, where the Nittany Lions let Northwestern escape with a victory and lost quarterback Drew Allar to injury for the rest of the season.

Franklin went 104-45 during his 11-plus seasons at Penn State. Yet the Nittany Lions often stumbled against top-tier opponents, going 4-21 against teams ranked in the top 10 during his tenure. There was hope this fall might be the one when Penn State would finally break through. Yet after three easy wins during a light non-conference schedule, the Nittany Lions crumbled. Athletic director Pat Kraft said the school owes Franklin - who is owed nearly $50 million in a buyout - an "enormous amount of gratitude" for leading the Nittany Lions back to relevance but felt it was time to make a change. "We hold our athletics programs to the highest of standards, and we believe this is the right moment for new leadership at the helm of our football program to advance us toward Big Ten and national championships," Kraft said. - AP College Football

  Drew Allar came back to Penn State for his senior season determined lead the Nittany Lions to a national championship. Now, with hopes of bringing the Nittany Lions their first NCAA football title since 1986 gone after a third-straight loss, the strong-armed quarterback will have to watch from the sidelines the rest of the way. Allar suffered an apparent leg injury on a third-down play late in Penn State's 22-21 loss to Northwestern on Saturday. He limped off the field with help, was replaced by backup Ethan Grunkemeyer and ruled out for the rest of the season. "Drew will be done for the year," Penn State coach James Franklin said. Allar's injury - not specified by the team - capped a three-week stretch in which the Nittany Lions fell from No. 2 in the Top 25 after losing in overtime at home to No. 3 Oregon, getting pounded by a previously winless UCLA team last week and being outplayed by Northwestern in front of another restless crowd at Beaver Stadium.

That crowd was noticeably smaller, too, as large sections of the vaunted, 40,000-seat student section were barren all night. Wide receiver Devonte Ross, who transferred to Penn State last summer to play with Allar, was sullen afterward. "I love Drew," Ross said. "That's unfortunate. It's a tough situation just knowing him as a person and knowing how much football means to him, how much this team means to him, it's tough but I know it's next man up." The Nittany Lions (3-3, 0-3 Big Ten), will have to find some answers and will now turn to Grunkemeyer to try and lead them to a bowl game. They have to play at Iowa next week and still have trips to No. 1 Ohio State and Michigan State. A home game against No. 7 Indiana looms, too. Allar ends his Penn State career fourth on the school's career passing yardage list with 7,265 yards on 620-for-982 passing with 61 touchdowns and 12 interceptions. - AP College Football

  Penn State took one of the biggest falls in the 89-year history of the poll for its loss at previously winless UCLA a week after the Bruins fired their coach. The Nittany Lions had slipped from No. 2 to No. 7 following their loss to Oregon. They went to UCLA as 24.5-point favorites, according to BetMGM Sportsbook, and lost 42-37. Penn State is unranked for the first time since September 2022. The plunge out of the Top 25 matched 1959 Oklahoma for second-biggest drop out of the rankings, not counting preseason polls or the 2020 pandemic season. The '59 Sooners went from No. 2 to out of the Top 20 after losing their opener to Northwestern. Texas lost at Ohio State as the preseason No. 1 and was No. 9 entering its game at Florida. The Longhorns' 29-21 loss at the Swamp sent it tumbling out of the Top 25. They hadn't been unranked since November 2022. Before Sunday, the last time two top-10 teams fell out of the poll the same week was Sept. 16, 1986, when it happened to No. 8 Tennessee and No. 10 Ohio State. - AP College Football

  Drew Allar threw for 209 yards and a touchdown and No. 2 Penn State got another near flawless effort from its defense in a 52-6 win over Villanova on Saturday. Nicholas Singleton ran for two touchdowns, Kaytron Allen added another, Trebor Peña caught a touchdown, and Ryan Barker kicked three field goals. Linebacker Tony Rojas had two sacks for the Nittany Lions (3-0) who came one play shy of posting back-to-back shutouts for the first time since 1996. Penn State scored two first-half touchdowns against FCS Villanova but the Nittany Lions settled for a pair field goals by Barker and punted twice despite outgaining Villanova 252-69. Singleton scored the game's first points through the middle of Villanova's defense for a 4-yard touchdown with 8:48 to play in the first quarter. Barker turned a short field into a 45-yard field goal after a shanked Villanova punt early in the second. He added a 28-yarder two possessions later to make it 13-0. The Wildcats (1-1) were forced to juggle quarterbacks early. Starter Pat McQuaide appeared injured when Rojas sacked him on Villanova's opening possession.

Tanner Maddocks took over, but each of Villanova's next three chances ended in punts. McQuaide returned and went 7 for 15 for 27 yards and an interception. Allar capped the first half with a 23-yard touchdown pass to Peña, then found him again a 2-point conversion to push Penn State's lead to 21-0 at halftime. The second half was all Penn State. Barker kicked a 42-yard field goal before Singleton bulled into the end zone for a 3-yard score on Penn State's next opportunity. Later, Allen eluded the Wildcat defense for a 13-yard touchdown before backup quarterback Ethan Grunkemeyer threw to tight end Joey Schlaffer for a 19-yard score. Jahmir Joseph returned an interception 49 yards for a TD in the fourth. Villanova broke the shutout when Brandon Binkowski made a one-handed, 3-yard touchdown catch on the final play. - Penn State/AP College Football

  Drew Allar completed 19 of 33 passes for 200 yards and two touchdowns and No. 2 Penn State beat Florida International 34-0 on Saturday. Devonte Ross and Khalil Dinkins caught touchdown passes, Kaytron Allen and Nicholas Singleton ran for scores and Ryan Barker kicked two field goals for the Nittany Lions (2-0), who shook off a sluggish first half and beat their second-straight Group of Five opponent. Linebacker Tony Rojas made 10 tackles, Alonzo Ford intercepted a pass and Penn State's defense notched its first shutout since a 56-0 win over Kent State last year. Initially, neither offense could sustain a possession as steady rain pounded Beaver Stadium's natural grass early. The Panthers (1-1) punted twice, had another punt blocked, turned the ball over on downs and had a solid drive spoiled in Penn State's end when Ford picked off an errant Keyone Jenkins screen pass. But, Penn State couldn't turn the Panthers' miscues into points.

The Nittany Lions gave it away on downs twice, punted once and had a field goal blocked in the first half. They were able to convert on their second possession late in the second quarter when Dinkins hauled in a 9-yard touchdown pass from Allar. Barker added a 41-yard field goal later in the second as the rain slowed. He was blocked on a 53-yard try nine plays later by Jessiah McGrew as Penn State went into halftime with a 10-0 lead. The Nittany Lions got a 34-yarder from Barker that made it 13-0 early in the second half. Allar and Ross made it 20-0 on Penn State's next possession when Ross sprinted for the corner of the end zone and battled through Ashton Levells' pass interference to catch a 42-yard touchdown pass with 4:44 left in the third. Allen finished with 144 yards on 16 carries, including a 67-yard touchdown in the fourth. Singleton scored from 5 yards out with 1:19 to play. - Penn State/AP College Football

  Drew Allar didn't take part during Penn State's max-out lifting session Thursday evening when the media was present, but he was still very much involved. The quiet sophomore quarterback was there to congratulate teammates when they finished their lifts and was talking to them throughout the session. And while he wasn't lifting Thursday, that doesn't mean he hasn't made progress since enrolling at Penn State in January 2022. "Drew being at the quarterback position, you gotta have durability," Penn State strength and conditioning coach Chuck Losey said Thursday. "That was one thing. With a tall, lean frame like Drew had when he came in, one of his main objectives was to put muscle mass on. He's done a great job. The number doesn't come to mind exactly how much he's put on, but it's in the excess of 20-25 pounds since he's been here. And he looks great. He looks like a defensive end right now."

The physical transition to college is important for Allar, who is widely expected to take over as the team's starter this year, but so is the mental one. He's soft-spoken by nature but has needed to take a step as a leader this season. That transition was evident Thursday as he spoke to his teammates and hyped them up and it's something Losey said he's seen develop over the team's past seven weeks of winter workouts. "He's done a good job in the sense that he's pushed outside of his comfort zone," Losey said. "Drew is not the loudest person you'll ever meet...Just his disposition, his nature, he's not an attention-seeking guy. He's quiet-natured but I've seen him, during our workouts, during the winter workouts in the weight room, he's put himself in uncomfortable situations to where he's forced himself to speak up to other guys. In that sense I'm really proud of him." - Centre Times
