The victory marked interim head coach Terry Smith's first career win, and senior running back Kaytron Allen led the way with a career rushing day with 181 rushing yards and a pair of touchdowns.
The Land Grant Trophy, established in 1993 in recognition of Penn State and Michigan State's status as pioneering land-grant institutions, was retained by Penn State.
The Nittany Lions next will host Nebraska at 7 p.m. on Nov. 22 at Beaver Stadium to close out its home game schedule.
