## College career

As a freshman in 2022, Pribula was redshirted. In the weeks leading up to the start of the 2023 season, controversy swirled around the Nittany Lions' starting quarterback position. Drew Allar, the 5-star quarterback in the same class as Pribula, was being weighed against the more agile passing threat in Pribula. In the end, Penn State coach James Franklin chose to start 5-star Allar, while having Pribula split as much time with Allar as would be possible. In 2023, he was the back-up to Drew Allar, and played in 11 games. Pribula got his first rushing touchdown against West Virginia on September 2, and his first passing touchdown against Delaware a week later. He was the leading rusher for Penn State against Rutgers with 71 yards on 8 carries and 1 touchdown, after Allar went down with an injury. In the Peach Bowl against Ole Miss, he had a 48-yard touchdown pass, on his only throwing attempt, in the 38–25 loss. He ended the season with 10 total touchdowns.
In 2024, Pribula played in 12 games. He started his 2024 season with a 19-yard touchdown pass to Tyler Warren in a 34–12 win against West Virginia. In Week 9, Allar went down with an injury against Wisconsin right before halftime. Down by a score, Pribula entered the game and lead Penn State to a 28–13 comeback victory. He went 11/13, threw for 98 yards, and a touchdown. Due to Allar announcing he was not declaring for the NFL Draft and would be returning to Penn State for his final year, Pribula entered the transfer portal on December 15. On December 22, he committed to the Missouri Tigers.
