In this upcoming game between Penn State and Southern Methodist, the Nittany Lions are heavily favored to come out on top. According to our simulations, Penn State has an impressive 83.0% chance of securing the victory. Quarterback Drew Allar has been a standout performer, averaging 248.0 passing yards and 2.3 touchdowns per simulation. Running back Nicholas Singleton is also expected to make an impact with a projected 86.0 rushing yards, although the model shows he has a 0.0% chance of scoring a rushing touchdown. With such strong offensive production, Penn State looks poised to dominate this matchup.

On the flip side, Southern Methodist will have their work cut out for them as they face an uphill battle against the favored Penn State squad. In the 17.0% of simulations where Southern Methodist comes out victorious, quarterback Preston Stone shines with an average of 2.07 touchdown passes compared to just 0.46 interceptions. However, in losses, his numbers dip to a ratio of 1.04 TDs to 0.63 interceptions. Stone's ability to protect the ball and make smart decisions will be crucial for the Mustangs' chances of pulling off the upset against the Nittany Lions.

As we look ahead to this intriguing matchup, it's clear that Penn State holds a significant advantage on paper. With a strong offense led by Drew Allar and a defense that has shown the ability to force turnovers, the Nittany Lions are in a solid position to secure the win over Southern Methodist.
