Penn State football will head into the 2023 season with high expectations The 2022-23 college football season is over, meaning it's officially time for Penn State football to start looking at the 2023 season. The Nittany Lions finished this past season 11-2 with a Rose Bowl win. It was a monumental season for Penn State after going 11-11 the two…

Another season has come and gone Penn State fans. The Nittany Lions finished with double-digit wins following two subpar seasons, but with losses to Ohio State and Michigan, there's still plenty to prove in Monday's Rose Bowl. James Franklin has led the Lions to three New Year's Six Bowl games since taking over the program. He's 2-1 in those games,…

STATE COLLEGE - Penn State's newcomers will be celebrated on Wednesday when they sign their national letter of intent. Five days later, the coaching staff and current roster will fly to California and switch gears to preparing for the Rose Bowl. It's been a month full of multi-tasking, in-home visits and hosting last-minute official visitors.…

PISCATAWAY, N.J. (AP) - James Franklin picked up his 100th career coaching victory by seeing No. 11 Penn State make big plays in every phase of the game. Sean Clifford ran for a touchdown and threw for another and the Nittany Lions scored twice on fumble returns and once on a kickoff return in beating Rutgers 55-10 Saturday. Freshman Nick Singleton…

The Big Ten season is dwindling down to its final weeks. Both division titles remain up for grabs with very different endings ahead for each. Meanwhile, we remain a homer blog as much as possible…though not quite as homer as last week. What were the highlights - and Iowa-lights - of Week 11…here you go. Best Win of the Week: Purdue The Boilermakers…

No. 14 Penn State and Maryland play on Saturday, Nov. 12. The game will be live streamed on fuboTV (free trial). Maryland coach Mike Locksley reminded his players this week that their annual trip to Penn State is not a rivalry game. It's been too one-sided to look at it that way. No. 14 Penn State (7-2, 4-2 Big Ten and 14th in the College Football…

STATE COLLEGE, Pa. (AP) - Maryland coach Mike Locksley reminded his players this week that their annual trip to Penn State is not a rivalry game. It's been too one-sided to look at it that way. "Obviously, we have to compete a little better to get it to that point," Locksley said. "It's an opportunity for us to see where we line up and see how we…

Penn State's James Franklin and Maryland's Mike Locksley have worked together and recruited together, so it's no surprise that they occasionally think alike. Take their views on rivalries. Franklin goes out of his way to avoid even using the term. Though Locksley isn't afraid to say the word rivalry, he's clear to point out this Penn State-Maryland…

Penn State coach James Franklin's default word when discussing player injuries is "hopeful." That's the most Franklin will say before any game, let alone a visit from No. 2 Ohio State. Penn State will be "hopeful" for more than good health Saturday at Beaver Stadium. The second-ranked Buckeyes have scored at least 45 points in six consecutive…

It's the final game of the non-conference season for the Central Michigan Chippewas (1-2), who are trying to shake off a slow start with a major upset to gain momentum into the MAC season, traveling to Happy Valley to take on the Penn State Nittany Lions (3-0) in a noon matchup on Saturday. The Chips were a dark horse favorite to make a run at the…

Last week, we went over the good things about Penn State football heading into 2022. Today, let's go Chief Keef and talk about what we don't like about the Nittany Lions heading into the season. This should come as no surprise for those that have followed the program this offseason. James Franklin has even said himself, multiple times, that…
