5 things to know about Penn State football quarterback Ethan Grunkemeyer
Quarterback Ethan Grunkemeyer will get the first start of his college career in one of the most important flashpoints for Penn State football team.
The redshirt freshman from Ohio will play the first truly meaningful snaps for the Nittany Lions in Saturday night's tell-all experience at Iowa.
In one tortured weekend, these Lions lost starting quarterback Drew Allar, then their third-straight game and their College Football Playoff hopes — and then, stunningly enough, head coach James Franklin.
Grunkemeyer must now lead Penn State into one of the most charged enemy atmospheres in the Big Ten — a night game at rowdy Kinnick Stadium. He will be in place of three-year starter Drew Allar, who suffered a broken ankle near the end of that homecoming loss to Northwestern.

Ethan Grunkemeyer embraced the mentality of preparing like a starter throughout his first two seasons as a backup quarterback at Penn State, but it was still unexpected when he found himself trotting onto the field at Beaver Stadium last Saturday.
When starter Drew Allar was tackled awkwardly between two Northwestern defenders with what was later revealed as a broken left ankle, Grunkemeyer had just minutes to warm up before calling the huddle for a fourth-and-3 situation with the game on the line.
