Penn State Defensive End Gets Ready to Rush at Wisconsin

Defensive End Arnold Ebiketie is Ready

The third-ranked Penn State Nittany Lions will face the Wisconsin Badgers this weekend. Penn State has high hopes of making the College Football Playoffs, and a win over Wisconsin would be a major step in that direction. The Badgers have a solid defense but struggled against run-pass options last weekend. Penn State’s Defensive End Arnold Ebiketie is a transfer from Temple University. He is one of the best pass rushers in the country and will be a major threat to the Wisconsin offense.

Ebiketie's Stats Last Season

Ebiketie already has 10 tackles, 4.5 tackles for loss, and 2 sacks through the first three games this season. Ebiketie also has 2 forced fumbles, 2 quarterback hurries, and a blocked kick.

Last year at Temple, Ebiketie was named the American Athletic Conference Defensive Player of the Year. He led the league with 9.5 sacks and 18.5 tackles for loss. He also forced three fumbles and had three fumble recoveries.

Ebiketie is a game-changer on defense. He has a great burst off the line of scrimmage and is very strong at the point of attack. He can also drop into coverage and make plays. He is a complete defensive end who can make an impact in all areas of the game.

Keys for the Badgers

The Badgers will need to find a way to slow down Ebiketie if they want to have a chance to win the game. They will need to keep him from getting into the backfield and disrupting the offense. They can also try to chip him with a running back or tight end to slow him down.

If the Badgers can contain Ebiketie, they’ll have a good chance of winning the game. But if he’s able to get into the backfield and make plays, it could be a long day for the Badgers.
