STATE COLLEGE, Pa. (AP) — Matt McGloin is taking over as Penn State’s starting quarterback against No. 8 Ohio State.

The former walk-on has thrown for seven touchdowns the last three games, including four last week in relief of freshman Rob Bolden against Northwestern.

Coach Joe Paterno says Bolden may still play Saturday, though McGloin is the first-stringer.

The offense has been revitalized over the team’s three-game winning streak in part because of McGloin, improved offensive line play and a stronger running game.

The Nittany Lions hope the momentum from last week’s come-from-behind win over the Wildcats for Paterno’s 400th career victory carries over on a tough trip to Columbus to face one of the nation’s top defenses.
