    #17 in Coaches Poll

    If recent history means anything, you are way too optimistic regarding the usual suspects making the playoffs. Just look at the 2025 preseason ranking. The following 2025 preseason ranked teams did not make the playoffs: 1. Texas 2. Penn State 4. Clemson 6. Notre Dame 9. LSU In fact...

    It’s August 1st. 35 days until PSU’s first game of the 2026 season.

    You were correct in your assessment of Franklin. No need to worry about what others think.

    Revive old question. With USC/ND rivalry returning

    Adding Bama to the schedule again would be great. Intersectional battles of national brands are great for college football fans. The last thing Penn State needs are boring cupcake service academies. A hard pass there.

    OSU to earn $17M from JPMorgan sponsorship that includes jersey patches

    Our fan base overwhelmingly has a good sense of taste and style. This patch on a jersey is just another symbol of the rampant greed and insatiable appetite for even more money. It’s very sad.

    Pitt B10 Talk Again.

    Pitt has been irrelevant for nearly 45 years. They certainly are not a rival to Penn State. It’s just a nostalgic thing for which a few boomers enjoy reminiscing. Just let go of Pitt scheduling Penn State. Penn State has much grander ambitions and goals.

    Nothing surprising or new here. Pre NIL it was called being processed out of the program. Every big time football program does this.

    Just to make sure posters understand: NIL collectives are independent, third-party organizations and are not part of a University. Context matters.

    Aside from the great Saquon Barkley, Journey Brown would be 2nd on the list (limited to the past 20 years). Next, I’d list Miles Sanders. There is a huge gap after that.

    What's your "gut" season outlook as of today July 11?

    My bet is on scenario 3 where Penn State will easily make the CFP based on their record. There will be no squeaking into the CFP. Lastly, scenario 2 is not viable since bowl games (outside the CFP) are meaningless, irrelevant, and a thing of the past. As a reminder, 10 P4 teams declined...

    I agree with you. Some fans still refuse to come to grips with the new world order of college football. It is nearly 100% transactional and very similar to the NFL in this respect. Players (people in general) are motivated by money. Money rules period. Programs like Texas Tech, Miami...

    When I look at the current roster of RBs, the one weakness is a lack of game-breaking speed. None of current RBs are threats to take it to the house type backs. They all look to be solid to very good RBs, but not great. Martin will have an opportunity to prove whether or not he is a legitimate...

    I don’t think it’s the Wild West at all. It’s about money. Gibson is very smart to go to a team where he can receive money this year instead of next year. That makes financial sense for Gibson. Reclassification at Penn State does not make sense given the RB depth chart. It would be a...

    Penn State Football Uniforms …

    Love this! No tasteless and classless gimmicks. Simplicity rules.

    I don’t think anyone is disagreeing with the option of eliminating some of the non revenue sports. The point is that alone will not solve Penn State’s NIL funding issue. The athletic department needs an additional revenue stream that is sustainable over the long term and keeps pace with market...
