The long over the shoulder pass play at the end of the game in which the Auburn defensive back was called for pass interference was a huge play in the game. It dug Penn State out of a huge hole where on the previous play, Noah Cain was almost stopped in the endzone for a safety. If that happens, the entire game changes on that stop in the end zone. Penn State would have had to kick or punt the ball back to Auburn and they could have had enough time to drive for the winning score. Instead, Mike Yurcich calls a gusty and intelligent over the shoulder throw to Jahan "Sticky Fingers" Dotson hoping for him to dig the Lions out of the shadows of the end zone with a catch or get the highly probable pass interference call with a cb antsy to make that play and prevent Jahan from making that catch. Penn State got the pass interference call and the rest is history. Penn State gives the ball back to Auburn with little time left. At that point I knew the defense would do it's job and Jaquan Brisker did just that. BALL GAME.
