Drew Allar Under 183.5 Passing Yards
Likewise, Drew Allar will have difficulty picking apart Notre Dame's secondary. The Irish have the fourth-ranked passing defense versus FBS opponents, holding teams to just 167.5 passing yards per game this season. Consequently, we don't foresee Allar surpassing 183.5 yards in the Orange Bowl.
Penn State's rush-heavy offensive attack also impacts Allar's limited ceiling. The Nittany Lions call rushing plays 57.0% of the time, a standard they've maintained into the postseason. From a game script perspective, running the ball will be a priority on Thursday as they aim to keep Notre Dame's offense off the field.
His 47 passing attempts in two playoff games are underwhelming, but Allar's 26 completions are even more disheartening. Those totals won't help Allar surpass his passing yard prop against Notre Dame.
