TERRE HAUTE, Ind. — If you look at the final score of Saturday’s Youngstown State-Indiana State football game, 28-0, you would think the Penguins totally dominated the Sycamores here before some 3,500 fans at Memorial Stadium.
Well, the Penguins did dominate the Sycamores, but not until the final quarter of play, as they improved to 3-1 on the season and opened Missouri Valley Football Conference action with a 1-0 record.
YSU only led the Sycamores (0-5) 7-0 going into the final quarter after struggling offensively for three quarters, but then in the final 15 minutes the Penguins exploded for 21 points, scored on two of their three offensive possessions, while the defense also added a score to complete the victory.
