Penn State preview: You have questions, we have answers

This Penn State football season is the most hotly-anticipated at least since Joe Paterno was the coach. That's mostly on merit, for two broad, roster-wide reasons: depth and star power. To illustrate: Bruce Feldman, national college football writer for The Athletic, does an annual Freaks List, of the 101 college players with the most off-the-charts…

Which teams pose the biggest threats to Ohio State football this season?

For Ohio State football fans, an undefeated regular season doesn't seem like too big of an ask. The Buckeyes have a knack for making games look easy, especially against teams like last year's Arkansas State and Toledo. But with two consecutive losses to Michigan and several preseason-ranked opponents on the 2023 schedule, there is no doubt the…

BSD Prediction Roundtable: Penn State at Auburn

Through two games I'm actually a touch more optimistic about the Lions than I was at this point last year. Both seasons started with road wins against B1G West programs, but the 2021 week 2 win over Ball State felt much more hard-earned than the 2022 week 2 win over Ohio. The run game seems improved, the backup QB situation is not a total question…
