We’re not used to playing on Friday night. And it’s kind of 1) be the visitors to a team opening a new stadium, and 2) such stadium being opened in October of a season of college football. Throw in that PSU is coming off a loss which left fans less than confident in the O and the D, and you get a lot of strangeness in the situation.

I’m pretty confident by nature, so I’m siding with PSU will get a W, but in truth I have no idea how this game will play out.

Please use this thread for all pre-game, in-game, and postgame discussion of the 2026 Penn State - Northwestern game.

We Are …

… Penn State!!!

Last time I checked, the weather was supposed to be cool (upper 50s) and clear @ game time. Anyone with an onsight report regarding weather and impressions of their new stadium?

$900 million. Like I said, it looks beautiful, but bigger than actually it is. Also I just thought maybe there was a live cam somewhere in the stadium so I could check the vibe. Nope.

There's like 3 live cams at my beach, and none at a new stadium. I don't even know - are there any at the Beav? There should be imo.

Or is that a privacy no-no?

Reminds me of the Marlin's park only w/out a roof. Like a big field house. The pregame hype music sucks, but let them think its good.
