Buckeye fan here…PSU has the potential to be scary this year. Also don’t forget the revenge factor for Allar against OSU. In-state kid that they ignored until Ewers left, he went with the team that wanted him and I don’t blame him one bit.
Penn state fan here, we have the potential to Nick off one of the two but I don’t think it’s our year unfortunately, Ohio State has always been our kryptonite
@@brandonster4203We hung with the Buckeyes until the very end of the game last year! it was Michigan who steam rolled us pretty much from the very start. I think we can play with Ohio State; Playing in the Horse Shoe is always tough!
As a Michigan fan, I think @ Penn State is their toughest game. Really wouldn't be all that shocked if PSU pulled it out. Chop Robinson, Abdul Carter, Curtis Jacobs, Kalen King, PSU is loaded on D and has their best O-Line in Franklins time being there. Combined with Allar and those RB's who knows
You are more positive about that than many of us are. Michigan has been the Class of the Big Ten for the last 2 seasons! I will believe it only once i've seen it.
@inconnu4961 Get this through your head!!!!! It is a different season, obviously you believe in the tooth fairy, Santa Claus, and the Easter bunny as well,????, lol My Nittany Lions 🦁 are very good and super talented and deep, and I just watched Drew Allar throw for over 300 yards, 72 percent completion percent, and 3 touchdowns, with no turnovers!!!! WE ARE 🏈 Unrivaled
@@ericm9029 I’m grading them on different scales. Clifford being a 16 year veteran and Allar going into his first year as a starter. I think Clifford’s “above average” was his ceiling while Allar has more…
Penn State fan here. I'm predicting 10-2 again, but I like your prediction better lol. I think I have to see Allar as a starter before I can get too optimistic. Nonetheless, I am super excited for this season
Same boat here, 10-2 I think is a pretty safe prediction. I'm still hesitant to say that we are either going to beat Ohio State or Michigan. We gotta see Allar play a team like Iowa, and then maybe we'll have a better idea of how we could play against those big teams later on in the year
As a psu fan, I think this is the best team James has had in his time at psu. I agree and think we go 11-1 and beat Ohio State. If we go 11-1, I think we could sneak into the playoffs like Ohio did last year
If we go 11-1 with a loss to Ohio State our loss would be in October which gives us time to rise in the polls. If we beat Michigan they'll likely be unbeaten and ranked 2 which would help us rise and if Michigan beat OSU. OSU loss would drop them because it's so late and no way to rebound. Confusing but if PSU loses to OSU (don't get blown out) and beat Michigan it's a good chance we will be the highest ranked team out the 3
We are not losing to Michigan in Happy Valley in November, payback!!! If we lose a game it will be in Columbus in October in a super close game, because our defense is amazing and nasty good and going to keep us in every single game, literally!!!! Young Drew Allar will have time to get comfortable with this amazing defense to help him get caught up offensively!!! WE ARE
If you look at the schedules for Texas, FSU and Georgia...they have it easy...they will win the remainder of their games by even 1 point and the BIASES ASSHOLES called voters and "Playoff" committee will put them in ahead of Penn State.....Penn State has to go 13 - 0 to even be considered for the playoff...considering that a PAC 12 team that goes 13-0 with all their razzle-dazzle offense and NO defense will get in head of an unbeaten Penn State even if Penn State is the B1G conference Champion at 13-0. Essentially Penn State has to beat the Kansas City Chiefs and go 14-0 to get BEDRUDGINGLY selected to be in the "play-with-yourself-off".
I’m mostly on board with JP. I think 12-0 is the ceiling, too, but I think the floor is 9-3. I’m also looking at them to go 11-1. Overall, really good segment. Hope you get to make one of those games this season
@@bosmith1820 I don’t think you’ve watched a single game between those two if you think they destroy them every year. They’ve consistently played them closer than anyone else for about a decade. Last year Penn State was winning through the fourth, then they turned it over. This isn’t a series that is defined by lopsided wins
This comes down to 1) Allar, 2), WRs, 3) DTs, 4) Injuries, and 5) STs. If Allar puts up a Drake Maye type season then PSU's floor is 10 games. The WRs is a question market because we don't know if KLS is going to be a playmaker like Jahan Dotson or more of what we had last year. The coaches seem to think the DTs are better this year than last as a unit. But we lost the UM game in the trenches. This is true for every team but injuries matter. People forget PSU was ranked #4 in 2021 when we played #3 Iowa on the road. I think we lost 4 key players in that game including Clifford and the season collapsed. The coaches believe this team has more depth in every position to avoid that this year. We lost two NFL 1st caliber players last year and still finished 11-2 so that's a good sign. Lastly, this isn't being discussed enough, but we have no idea who our kicker and kickoff specialist is going to be. It'll crush me if we lose to OSU or UM because of one or two missed FGs. In terms of just talent, I believe this is an 11-win team. I don't see 8 wins happening unless the injuries mount. 12 is not impossible because UM didn't beat OSU until they finally climbed the wall.
Nah, we've had a long series of painful lessons about expecting too much from Franklin. If we go 10-2 it will be because we lose one of the two big games because of an idiotic Franklin play call on 4th & 1 late in the 4th quarter.
Even if Allar SUCKS I think their worst is 8-4 just based on the schedule. Iowa and Illinois have a chance if their defenses can score. I have a hard time believing Allar will be a world-beater though. Thought the same with Hackenburg. Franklin seems to have a hard time making the offense work for pocket passers and has way more success with improviser QBs.
11-1 is the record. I think Penn State slaps Ohio State this year. OSU is soft and UM is showing that. Penn State matches up well against them and those RB’s are both 15 lbs heavier, a year older and faster.
@@buckeyeawesome69 huh slap is not what omes to mind when i thank of a 4th quarter win bud and im not even a PSU fan biut OSU most deff did not slap PSU last year they played to the wire
I was thinking the opposite. Michigan Ohio State and Illinois slaps Penn State around as usual. And if James Franklin, Allar and especially the band wagon fans are not careful maybe a Maryland or Michigan state slaps them around. Penn State will be great against terrible teams and average to sometimes good against good to great teams. 2 loses maybe 3
Penn State has the pieces and the groundwork to be great probably the only program consistently in the top 10 the last several years of the playoff era that hasn’t stepped up to the championship stage this year they can definitely do it. I’ll say they go 10-2 beating either OSU or Michigan but losing a trap game which for me would be at Maryland that team right there is scary
Penn St will lose to Ohio St but beat Michigan and then MIchigan will beat Ohio St for 3 in a row and now we have a situation of all 3 teams dead locked for a play among themselves.
I think PSU goes 11-1. Not sure if they beat UM or OSU, but really hoping it's the latter. They might even get the #4 seed in the playoff similar to OSU last year.
Cant see it this year.. Especially with the SEC not being as dominate.. I have a feeling its going to be a serious debate between champions this year..
Likely 10-2. Question marks also around West Virginia and Illinois, since WV is the first game, and it will depend on how well prepared the coaching staff has the team. And Illinois embarrassed PSU a couple of years ago in a game Penn State should have dominated. I'm not sold on Iowa, although they generally have great lines and are very physical. Also not sold on Wisconsin; I generally think they're overrated, but every year is a new year in college football. Anyway, enough talk, time to play.
Folks WVU ain't gonna rollover! After Brown benched pro-set statue JT Daniels and shifted to multi-dimensional Greene and Marchiol the team did a 180 degree turn-a-round. They beat Oklahoma in Morgantown scored 31 (but lost to KState) and defeated Ok State in Stillwater. Offensively, almost the entire offense is back from the last 3 games, including portal pick ups at tight end from LSU and an All-ACC and all-Mac receivers from NCSU and Kent State, respectively. The running backs all return and include a healthy 6-4 240 lb Donaldson. I believe this offense will score! Defensively the entire linebacker crew is back, including an All Big 12 Mike Linebacker and a PSU transfer fighting for a starting position. Safeties all return too. The D Line did lose 3 starters but 2nd team All-Big 12 DE Sean Martin returns and E.V. returns at DT, and add GT transfer Thornton at NG and PSU and TSU transfers on the other DL positions. There's lot of speed and experience at the DL! At the corner WVU acquired Minnesota's starting CB from the portal. and other returning starters. There you have it: All positions on defense and offense have considerable playing experience at the elite level. Now the emotional stuff: new offensive coordinator, head coach fighting for his job, multidimensional QB's and a group of experienced athletes that have been disparaged as a 3 td spread underdog! One thing we athletes know folks, it's dangerous thing to disparage your opponents before a contest! Not to mention experienced Division 1 athletes!
As a BIG10 fan without a favorite team(I graduated from a MAC school so the BIG10 is my favorite P5 con but I don’t tie myself to one team), my prediction for Penn St; Best(12-0), worst(6-6), most likely(10-2)
I’m gonna tell you a scary story it was a dark and gloomy night a severely underrated overlooked and disrespected wv team creeps into the valley looking for a fight well I think y’all kno the rest lol
10:2 They almost beat OSU, but Franklin messes up play calling again. UM game isn't close. PSUs OL can't protect Allar, and JJ + Blake Corum + Donovan Edwards dissect them methodically.
How did play calling have anything to do with last yrs loss to OSU? Clifford handed osu the game. 2 ints to the Dend (one of those a pick6) is the reason why they lost. Not say Franklin hasn't choked before but last yr wasn't his fault.
Michigan - Penn State is a drastically different game depending on where it’s played. Michigan hasn’t handled Penn State in Beaver Stadium since 2006, and that was a one-score game. I’d be surprised if it wasn’t a very close one.
@@dpw140 PSU likely has improved (assuming Allar really is an upgrade over Clifford, of which I am not convinced yet), but so has UM. On paper, this should be the best team Michigan has fielded in 25 years, barring injuries. And JJ, Corum and Edwards have been there and won before, so they won't be overly impressed by the crowd. Esp since it will be a noon game, not a white out (thanks, FOX). We will know in November.
I think they're a good team, but they have a lot of question marks in the throwing game that could pan out, but likely not until next year. I think 9-3. They lose the 2 big games and 1 other. I think they get caught looking ahead to Michigan and lose @Maryland.
@@kevinchandler179 If I remember correctly, didnt Ol Penn State make Auburn look like a practice squad, in Auburn? Every Auburn fan had their dam eagle warring, but at the end of the game, it was a dead chicken! But the Auburn people were great otherwise!
Whoever is still putting OSU at better odds to win big ten than Michigan is just biased. Objectively, I would say Michigan this year and then back to OSU next year.
@@Account-kx5vr The only reason i say if they beat osu is cause it’s in the horseshoe if they do that they have all that momentum going into a game at home vs michigan
@TheDissidentTherapist haha, I sure hope not this year. They have made many substantial improvements this off season through the portal for the first time. I really think the O line is fixed, they have a serviceable qb, some weapons to throw to, and this might be the most talented the defense has been in years.

12-0 if they beat ohio state
Michigan is a much tougher game for them than Ohio State.
@@Account-kx5vr The only reason i say if they beat osu is cause it’s in the horseshoe if they do that they have all that momentum going into a game at home vs michigan
@maxgross3369 momentum doesn't change the matchup problem Michigan poses for Penn State.
@@Account-kx5vr but a an undefeated home game can look at 2019 vs 2022
@maxgross3369 I don't think we can compare pre covid Michigan to post covid Michigan. On top of that 2019 was a white out night game.
Franklin still the coach. 2 losses instantly and go from there.
James Franklin isn’t a good enough game coach to go undefeated.
I don’t get why people try to say this, you realize James Franklin doesn’t do much gameday with the coordinators he has now
@@JesseEubanks I have seen his clock management cost them more than once
Ed oregon wasn't either til Joe Burrow
He doesn't make any in game adjustments, and that's a problem! I'm a huge fan btw
I see 9-3. 11-1 would shock me
My prediction is that Penn State wins the Big 10 this year...
...if Michigan and ohio decide to forego the 2023-24 season! 😂😂😂
Make sure you come by and say 'Hi' at the end of the season. We will have some humble pie ready for you! Bring your bib!
Not the best defense in the big 10 😂. We'll see how for real they are when Iowa comes to town. Circle that game.
Comes to town with an offense averaging 10 points a game?
@TheDissidentTherapist haha, I sure hope not this year. They have made many substantial improvements this off season through the portal for the first time. I really think the O line is fixed, they have a serviceable qb, some weapons to throw to, and this might be the most talented the defense has been in years.
That Iowa O not looking too hot. 18.5 pts a game against those two teams. Yikes.@@mwrobins11
Well this didn't age well! 🤣🤣🤣
11-1 if allar legit
Penn State...15-0...or...GTFO!!!
11-1 for Penn State this year, only loss to Michigan.
8-4----9-3
