After a deep ball bounced off his hands, KJ Hamler pulled Sean Clifford aside and told his quarterback he owed him one. It didn't take long for Hamler to make it up to him. The speedy wideout burned the Michigan secondary two quarters later and hauled in a perfectly thrown 53-yard touchdown pass to help propel No. 7 Penn State to a 28-21 win over No. 16 Michigan on Saturday. Clifford wasn't surprised to see the nearest Michigan defender nearly 10 yards behind Hamler, who finished with six catches for 10 8 yards. "I know KJ's fast enough to get to that weakness in their defense every single time," Clifford said. And the first-year starter is getting better at finding him down the field.Clifford hit Hamler on a 25-yard pass to start the scoring, ho oked up with tight end Pat Freiermuth for a 17-yard touchdown and ran for a 1-yard score to pace Penn State's offense. Hamler also had a 100-yard kickoff return to start the second half called back on a holding penalty. That would've come in handy as Pen n State's offense went cold for much of the second half. The Wolverines battled back from a 21-7 halftime deficit and with just over two minutes to play, had a chance to tie the game on fourth-and-goal from Penn State's 3. But Michigan wideout Ronnie Bel l dropped a potential tying touchdown with Penn State safety Lamont Wade playing tight coverage. "That stop was huge," Penn State coach James Franklin said. The Nittany Lions took control of the game early. Clifford hooked up with Jahan Dotson for 37 yar ds to set up the scoring toss to Freiermuth who beat Khaleke Hudson in coverage. - Penn State/AP College Football

Noah Cain ran for a five-yard touchdown with 5:17 left and 10th-ranked Penn State held off No. 17 Iowa 17-12 on Saturday night, its first win over a ranked opponent this season. Cain finished with 102 yards for the Nittany Lions (6-0, 3-0 Big Ten), who e xtended their winning streak over the Hawkeyes (4-2, 1-2) to six games. A matchup between two of the nation's top defenses turned when Iowa's Nate Stanley threw an interception near midfield with 9:22 remaining. Penn State drove 35 yards on a gassed Iowa defense, and the last of three straight runs by Cain made it 17-6.Iowa pulled within 17-12 when Stanley found Brandon Smith for a 33-yard TD pass with 2:31 to go. The Hawkeyes' two-point try failed though, and Cain converted a crucial third down that ensured that Iowa never saw the ball again. Up 7-6 late in the third quarter, Penn State recovered a fumble at Iowa's 16 and Sean Clifford connected on an apparent touchdown pass to Pat Freiermuth that was overturned on review. Iowa then held the Ni ttany Lions at the 1-foot line, and two straight holding calls forced them to settle for a 33-yard field goal. KJ Hamler caught seven passes, including a 22-yarder for a TD, for Penn State. Stanley threw for 286 yards, but the Hawkeyes ran for just 70 ya rds on 30 attempts. - Penn State/AP College Football
