With a single play, Penn State offensive lineman Olaivavega Ioane might have just become the apple of every NFL scout’s eye.
As we speak, Penn State are clobbering UCLA in a 27-3 blowout that is nearing its end. But while quarterback Drew Allar, running back Kaytron Allen and wide receiver Liam Clifford have no shortage of big plays to put on the highlight reel this week, a single block from Ioane on a UCLA defender is likely going to be the team’s play of the week.
On the play, Ioane comes in from the left side and blasts his Bruins player to the ground to open up a big hole for the running back. Just to make sure that the defender stayed out of the play, Ioane blocked him again while the man was already on the ground.
Even the Fox college football broadcasters found the play to be incredible:

Fans enjoyed the play too:
“Bro saw his life flash before his eyes once he saw the lineman in motion,” one user remarked.
“Give me some syrup and powder sugar with that pancake,” wrote another.

“It’s not that Andy Kotelnicki puts an offensive lineman in motion, it’s that he chose the 350-pound beauty to do it,” a third wrote.
