In one drive against Oregon, with Penn State down 14, Allar completed three passes for 56 yards and a beautiful touchdown lob. The rest of the game, he went 11-of-22 for 81 yards and a game-clinching pick. His big-game production is a known issue, but he hasn't really produced against anyone, throwing few deep balls and averaging 10.8 yards per completion. This has not yet become the breakthrough year Allar hoped for.

The stance he is, and has been, that Arch Manning and LaNoris Sellers should stay in college, develop, and wait to declare for the 2027 draft. That was my stance before the season, and remains such after their poor starts to the season. Dante Moore has had an excellent start to the 2025 season and there's going to be a lot of pressure on him to come out if he continues to play well. However, he's also a red-shirt sophomore and I tend to believe that getting as much experience as possible is the wiser move.
