Penn State lineman Olaivavega Ioane delivered a pulverizing double-pancake block on a UCLA defender

Penn State UCLA Football Texas AM

Penn State offensive lineman Olaivavega Ioane delivered one of the most devastating blocking reps you’re going to see in football this season on Saturday.

As the Nittany Lions faced off against UCLA in Happy Valley, Penn State sent Ioane in motion on one play to keep Bruins defensive lineman Luke Schuermann from disrupting the runner.  

Well, Ioane got his assignment loud and clear as he obliterated Schuermann not just once, but twice. The UCLA defender had no chance to even see who was running the ball for Penn State, much less make a stop on the play. 

We’ve seen pancake blocks before, but this is a double-pancake spectacular from Ioane. Hats off to the lineman; this was sensational.
