Penn State lineman blocks his teammate on failed fourth down attempt (Video)

Nothing went right for Penn State during its 29-6 homecoming loss against Northwestern on Saturday afternoon at Beaver Stadium. Things got so bad that on a fourth-down play in the fourth quarter (while already trailing 23-6), one of Penn State’s linemen blocked his own man.

Yes, Penn State pulled a Florida!

Take a look at this epic moment of ineptitude as guard Brian Gaia (No. 72) blocks tackle Andrew Nelson (No. 59).

Despite starting 4-0, the Nittany Lions have struggled to run the football all season behind a line that lacks experience and depth.

Coming into the game, the Nittany Lions were 108th in the country in rushing yards per game. After a day where PSU has averaged just two yards per carry, that number will surely get worse.
