Levis had an opportunity to solidify himself as the team's backup quarterback - and even as a legitimate threat to become the starter - when Clifford left the game against Ohio State with an injury. He started the following week against Rutgers in an offense that looked almost nothing like the one the Nittany Lions ran for most of the season. They finished the game with only 15 passing attempts and 46 rushing attempts, including 17 by Levis. The full game against the Scarlet Knights and the partial game against the Buckeyes are the two best evaluation opportunities of Levis available, and neither should inspire confidence that he can lead a pass-heavy attack or an offense that doesn't run the quarterback often.The sophomore has remarkable arm strength - along with power and athleticism as a runner - but is raw as a passer. His insertion into the Ohio State game sparked the offense and gave the Nittany Lions their only real offensive momentum of the matchup, but that can largely be attributed to the drastic change in offensive style with Levis at quarterback. Penn State went to its run-heavy attack to take pressure off the quarterback and put him in position to succeed in a difficult situation. - Centre Times
