Join the Blue White Illustrated Live Show today at 10 a.m. as we discuss the last win for Penn State, James Franklin's press conference on Monday, and preview the upcoming game against Michigan.James Franklin press conferencePenn State head coach James Franklin spoke with the media on Monday to discuss the upcoming game against the Wolverines. We'll discuss what the media asked Franklin and what his responses mean for the upcoming game. Senior Editor Nate Bauer and publisher Sean Fitz have extensive experience taking the correct meaning from Franklin's comments and explaining the nuance of the situation.Of course, the main topic of Monday's press conference was the Penn State run defense, which was gashed last year by the Wolverines. Franklin thinks his team is better in several areas than they were last season."I think we have been much more disciplined and consistent in gap responsibility. There has been times where we have tried to make plays and get out of our gap, and against good teams the ball will find the open gap," Franklin said."I think we're a little bit bigger. I think the size has helped us as well. We're a little bit bigger across the front, specifically the D-line. Not to the point where it's affected our ability to move. I think that's a big part of what we do as well, is our movements and our games."Penn State vs. MichiganOnce we conclude the look at Franklin's press conference, we'll finish the show discussing the upcoming game. We'll give you an early preview of what situations and matchups will help determine the game and which players will need to play their best for the Nittany Lions to get a victory.As he does each week, Franklin highlights the players they think are the most dangerous on each side of thel ball. Here are the players he gave this week. On offense, things start with quarterback JJ McCarthy."Their quarterback has been a differentiator for them, completing almost 76% of his balls. Also has the ability to make plays with his feet either running for first downs or extending plays," Franklin said.Join us at 10 a.m. on YouTube to be a part of the show!#PennState #NittanyLionsJOIN Blue White Illustrated: https://www.on3.com/teams/penn-state-nittany-lions/join/?plan=annualSUBSCRIBE to Blue White Illustrated on YouTube and enable alerts - new highlights and videos uploaded regularly: https://www.youtube.com/c/bluewhiteillustratedvideo?sub_confirmationBookmark our homepage: https://www.on3.com/teams/penn-state-nittany-lions/Subscribe to BWI Magazine and Newsletters: https://bluewhiteonline.comDownload our podcasts: https://cms.megaphone.fm/channel/LRL3155877513?selected=DSVV2664982394Like us on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/BlueWhiteIllustrated/Follow us on Twitter https://twitter.com/PennStateOn3Sound effects obtained from https://www.zapsplat.comPenn State vs. Michigan Preview Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

The team defeated Maryland on Saturday in a complete-team shutdown that featured another dominating defensive performance and a breakout game from quarterback Drew Allar.Join the BWI Live Postgame show to discuss the win and how the team performed on Saturday. We'll be discussing the schemes and plans by both teams that determined the game. If you haven't, subscribe to the Blue White Illustrated YouTube Channel so you don't when we go live after every Penn State football game.Penn State pass game grows upAfter a late-game surge that helped the Nittany Lions defeat Indiana, Allar picked up right where he left off. The 6-5 passer looked calm and poised in the pocket against Maryland. That confidence resulted in three first-half touchdowns for the Nittany Lions. Allar completed 76% of his passes in the first half, and the offense converted 80% of its first downs on the way to 21 first-half points.Penn State head coach James Franklin has been happy with the way his young quarterback has progressed this season but was still looking for more heading into this matchup."I'm pleased with how it's going, but there is obviously a lot of room for growth there, not just specifically with him, but the pieces around him as well.""The last thing I'll say, because we've talked about this a lot, is I also think the explosive plays help. You know, when you're able to complete a ball like we did with KeAndre, the more times you can put that on tape, that affects the defense very similar to a mobile quarterback."Penn State completed those explosive plays against the Maryland defense and got support from players not named KeAndre Lambert-Smith. Receiver Dante Cephas had a breakout performance in the win with his most yards and catches of the season. Cephas had two touchdowns on the day and six catches for 53 yards.Defense rebounds for lights-out performanceAside from one drive, aided by a roughing of the punter penalty, the Penn State defense locked down the Maryland offense. Yes, Taulia Tagovailoa started the game 17-17, but the defense also sacked the Maryland quarterback four times.Also, halftime was good for the Nittany Lion's defense again, who shut out another opponent in the third quarter. Penn State allowed -51 yards rushing through three quarters and allowed only 15 yards in the third frame.We'll be discussing these topics and more on tonight's show.#PennState #NittanyLionsJOIN Blue White Illustrated: https://www.on3.com/teams/penn-state-nittany-lions/join/?plan=annualSUBSCRIBE to Blue White Illustrated on YouTube and enable alerts - new highlights and videos uploaded regularly: https://www.youtube.com/c/bluewhiteillustratedvideo?sub_confirmationBookmark our homepage: https://www.on3.com/teams/penn-state-nittany-lions/Subscribe to BWI Magazine and Newsletters: https://bluewhiteonline.comDownload our podcasts: https://cms.megaphone.fm/channel/LRL3155877513?selected=DSVV2664982394Like us on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/BlueWhiteIllustrated/Follow us on Twitter https://twitter.com/PennStateOn3Sound effects obtained from https://www.zapsplat.com Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

The Penn State Football team takes on Maryland Saturday in College Park in a pivotal game in the 2023 season. While the Terps are a 5-3 team that has lost three straight games, they present a dangerous challenge to the Nittany Lions this weekend. On today's Five Things to Watch, we break down the matchups that will determine the game this weekend. We'll cover Penn State's rushing attack, Maryland's passing game, and the Terrapins front seven. Join the show at 10 a.m. to discuss the game and what you want to see from the Nittany Lions on Saturday. Subscribe to the Blue White Illustrated YouTube Channel so you don't miss any live content! Franklin aware of Maryland's passing attack Penn State head coach James Franklin laid out the game during his Tuesday press conference."They're an 11-personnel spread team. Guys that we have respect for is their quarterback, obviously. Wide receivers, No. 6 and No. 1, Jeshaun Jones and Kaden Prather, and running back Roman Hemby. We got respect for those guys.Other guys as well, obviously, but really kind of runs through their quarterback who has been playing there and been productive, owns every record that university has," Franklin said. We'll discuss the reality of Maryland's offense and how they operate schematically. Penn State offense faces unique matchupThe Maryland defense doesn't have one superstar, but the data suggests that its front seven is stacked with productive players. We'll sift through the information to point out which players, matchups, and schemes will determine the outcome of the game for the Penn State offense. We'll discuss the Penn State rushing attack's matchup with Maryland, how the Lions will fare against a robust pass rush, and how the receivers will fare against the Maryland secondary. But to me, it's a season that's going to look very different each week based on a lot of factors. Home, away, weather, environment, matchups. There's going to be a team where you say, on paper, you're supposed to be worse are supposed to be better, and the game doesn't play out that way because you got matchups that are in your favor or not in your favor. So there's just so many things that kind of go into it."Game Day CoverageGame day coverage starts at 12:30 on the Blue White Illustrated YouTube Channel. Former Penn State defensive tackle Aeneas Hawkins joins us to discuss the game on the Penn State Football Tailgate Show. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

You can get their full insights from their Wednesday articles, but they'll also share thoughts on today's show.Maryland PreviewThere could not be two more directly opposed quarterbacks from a mindset standpoint. The firely and aggressive Taulia Tagovailoa has given Maryland a fighting chance each of the last three seasons he's been under center. New Penn State quarterback Drew Allar is a cool and methodical player who doesn't risk the football.For this weekend's matchup, Franklin knows that Tagovailoa can challenge his defense in multiple ways."Yeah, really good player," Franklin said. "Obviously, statistically, he's number one in every category at the University of Maryland. They've had some good quarterbacks, all the way back to Boomer Esiason, and Frank Reich, and a ton of guys that have played there. Obviously, the thing that makes him challenging is his, not only decision-making as a passer and the weapons they have around him, but then also his athleticism and his quickness and his ability to improvise. Those are the things that become most challenging. But, whenever you got a guy that's played as much football as he has, that's why I think there was so much confidence with [Mike Locksley] and those guys coming into the season, and why they're confident now, because they got a veteran, experienced, proven quarterback," Franklin said.We'll preview how the two teams match up and the major storylines that go into this game. It's a big recruiting weekend for both teams, with Penn State dominating the Maryland region in recruiting under Franklin.BWI MailbagFinally, we'll discuss what you have on your mind!

The expectations of a five-star quarterback playing at an elite level reached a fever pitch after an explosive first game from Drew Allar.But since then?Reality has set in for Penn State fans about the play of a first-year quarterback. On today's show, we'll discuss Allar's performance against Indiana, along with his teammates on offense. We'll review the run game and the defense as well.Join the BWI Live show at 10 a.m. on YouTube and join the conversation!Penn State pleased with Allar's progressionWhen building an offense, you can't solely cater to the quarterback's strengths. The ability of the personnel around him is also a factor in how you build an offense, according to James Franklin."The other thing obviously is being able to play to that quarterback's strengths. The challenge with that is there are so many factors that go into it. The offensive line, the running backs, the tight ends, the receivers play a major part in that," he said.But regarding where the team is, Franklin is optimistic about the development despite the bumpy road."I'm pleased with how it's going, but there is obviously a lot of room for growth there, not just specifically with him, but the pieces around him as well.""So all those things kind of factor into it. But I've been pleased with his development physically. Pleased with his development mentally. I think we got to do a better job helping him and making plays for him. He has to be more consistent with some things as well."Defense has a down performance but confidence is highDespite several blown coverages on Saturday, confidence in the defense remains high for the Penn State staff."I think there has been enough evidence over the season of who we are as a defense, and specifically who we are as a pass defense. When you play man coverage, are there some things that we can do technique and fundamental that probably wasn't executed on that play the way it should have been? Yes," Franklin said."But when you play man coverage as much as we do they're going to get you from time to time. The other one was a total blown assignment. I think there is enough body of work of who we have been as a defense to feel comfortable and confident with that."We'll break down the coverage busts by the Nittany Lions and the big plays that led to a closer game than most expected against Indiana this past weekend.Finally, we'll preview the Maryland Terrapins and what sort of team they'll bring to the field this coming weekend.#PennState #NittanyLionsJOIN Blue White Illustrated: https://www.on3.com/teams/penn-state-nittany-lions/join/?plan=annualSUBSCRIBE to Blue White Illustrated on YouTube and enable alerts - new highlights and videos uploaded regularly: https://www.youtube.com/c/bluewhiteillustratedvideo?sub_confirmationBookmark our homepage: https://www.on3.com/teams/penn-state-nittany-lions/Subscribe to BWI Magazine and Newsletters: https://bluewhiteonline.comDownload our podcasts: https://cms.megaphone.fm/channel/LRL3155877513?selected=DSVV2664982394Like us on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/BlueWhiteIllustrated/Follow us on Twitter https://twitter.com/PennStateOn3Sound effects obtained from https://www.zapsplat.com Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

We’ll discuss the team’s performance on today’s BWI Live Show.

On today’s show, we’ll discuss Alex Tatsch, Jermaine Kinsler, Naeshaun Montgomery, and more.While he’s a 2025 prospect, Montgomery is a top receiver prospect and someone Penn State needs in a big way. How did things go this weekend? Join the show to find out.Game reaction and discussionEven in Penn State’s blowout wins, they’ve seemingly struggled to be consistent on offense. We’ll discuss the Nittany Lion’s offense on today’s show to dissect the good and bad from the game.On the bad side, the team went three and out three times and had several sub 25-yard drives during the afternoon. Yet after a costly turnover late in the game, the Penn State offense and Drew Allar responded with an emphatic 78-yard touchdown drive, capped off by a 57-yard strike from Allar to KeAndre Lambert-Smith.So, was this an evolution from the offense or a one-off play? If it’s an evolution, did the way it happened to come as a relief to an offense that seems to play tight and afraid of mistakes?“No, but it was awesome. I enjoyed it. That was awesome. I wouldn’t describe it that way, but yeah, obviously Drew’s being able to sit in there and deliver that ball. KeAndre, being able to make that play and finish and stay in bounds was awesome. As you guys know, we talked about it enough. We talked about it a bunch. We’ve got to continue to be able to do that. So, that was awesome. It was awesome,” Penn Stae head coach James Franklin said after the game.We’ll also discuss the defense and their off-day on the field.

Yet on Saturday, the defense gave up two explosive touchdowns of 90 and 69 yards in the first half.Free safety Zakee Wheatley was beaten in single coverage on the game's third drive, resulting in a catch and run of 90 yards for Dequece Carter. Next, the secondary miscommunicated on a blitz and allowed receiver Donaven McCulley to scamper free for another long touchdown.The bad day for the coverage team wasn't over. Sorbsy hit Omar Cooper Jr. on a 26-yard touchdown in the fourth quarter to keep Indiana within three points.However, even on an off day the defense kept the team in the game. They got a timely stop on third down with six minutes left in the game to give the ball back to the offense with a lead and a chance to kill the clock.Offense continues to muddle alongThere were some good moments for the Penn State offense, including a 16-yard touchdown to Theo Johnson up the middle on a Cover 0 by the defense. Quarterback Drew Allar hit Johnson in contested coverage for a red zone touchdown.However, the team gave up multiple sacks and pressures on Saturday that, once again, kept the team off-kilter. However, the team still went three-and-out three times with another four-and-out in the game. With the surprising game pressure on them, the offense fell apart with the game on the line. Allar threw his first interception of the season with five minutes left, giving Indiana the ball on the 21-yard line.But not for long.After his first career interception, Allar uncorked a 57-yard touchdown pass to KeAndre Lambert-Smith and connected on possibly the biggest pass of his young career.#PennState #NittanyLionsJOIN Blue White Illustrated: https://www.on3.com/teams/penn-state-nittany-lions/join/?plan=annualSUBSCRIBE to Blue White Illustrated on YouTube and enable alerts - new highlights and videos uploaded regularly: https://www.youtube.com/c/bluewhiteillustratedvideo?sub_confirmationBookmark our homepage: https://www.on3.com/teams/penn-state-nittany-lions/Subscribe to BWI Magazine and Newsletters: https://bluewhiteonline.comDownload our podcasts: https://cms.megaphone.fm/channel/LRL3155877513?selected=DSVV2664982394Like us on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/BlueWhiteIllustrated/Follow us on Twitter https://twitter.com/PennStateOn3Sound effects obtained from https://www.zapsplat.com Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

The defense allowed only 20 points to one of the most dangerous teams in the country, so we'll discuss them, but the spotlight will be on Drew Allar and his teammates.Most importantly, can Penn State regain their identity? Head coach James Franklin thinks they got away from it last week."Yeah, I think we talked about staying true to our identity, and I thought we got a little bit away from that at times.""Somebody asked me earlier about our goal line package that we've been using, the three running backs and things like that that have been very successful in short yardage. We kind of got away from that."While Franklin acknowledged that the team's identity is grounded in the run game, his main point was that they are an efficient team."I thought our identity was staying on schedule converting on third downs and then either converting on third downs or going for it on fourth down situations. I feel like that had been our identity for the season," Franklin said"We have a lot of respect for their short-yardage defense and how they were defending it, but we did not do that. We did not either convert on third downs like we had been doing or put us in a situation where we were in fourth and short to go for it."Penn State has a chance to redeem itself in the final month of the season, playing Maryland and Michigan after this home date with Indiana.#PennState #NittanyLionsJOIN Blue White Illustrated: https://www.on3.com/teams/penn-state-nittany-lions/join/?plan=annualSUBSCRIBE to Blue White Illustrated on YouTube and enable alerts - new highlights and videos uploaded regularly: https://www.youtube.com/c/bluewhiteillustratedvideo?sub_confirmationBookmark our homepage: https://www.on3.com/teams/penn-state-nittany-lions/Subscribe to BWI Magazine and Newsletters: https://bluewhiteonline.comDownload our podcasts: https://cms.megaphone.fm/channel/LRL3155877513?selected=DSVV2664982394Like us on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/BlueWhiteIllustrated/Follow us on Twitter https://twitter.com/PennStateOn3Sound effects obtained from https://www.zapsplat.com Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

The Penn State offense needs to adjust if they want to recover from their dysfunction that led to six points against Ohio State in the meaningful part of last weekend's loss. Raw point totals won't fix the Penn State offense against Big Ten basement dweller Indiana. The offense needs to force the issue and make some meaningful changes to how they operate on the football field. Today, on Friday's Five Things, we're running down the five adjustments that could help the Penn State offense achieve a better threat balance for the season's final stretch. Join the BWI Live Show today at 10 a.m. on YouTube to get your thoughts on the show as well. Senior Editor Nate Bauer joins the show to discuss today's five things and take questions from the live chat. Penn State balance in the passing gameThe Nittany Lions have struggled to use the full field this year, relying on select areas and routes to win. Head coach James Franklin acknowledges that this is a problem. "Yeah, we've got to be able to attack the entire field. If most of our production is coming in similar areas of the field, then it makes you easier to defend. There's no doubt about it," Franklin said. We'll look at where the targets are going and what the production looks like in the under-utilized areas of the field. While offensive coordinator Mike Yurcich likely has plans to fix the issue, we'll take a stab at it too. Focus on the passing gameMost of today's show focuses on the Penn State passing game. The Nittany Lions don't represent enough of a credible threat to open up the running game right now. So restoring a balanced attack and credible threats is the critical fix. Franklin agrees that the team is behind in this area. "Yeah, we're behind in the passing game. I think we've shown some flashes," he said. Franklin believes that getting Harrison Wallace back up to speed and integrated into the passing game will help. However, the pass-catchers need to step up and it's something they've been told behind closed doors and now, publicly."I don't want to ever say anything's divisive between the offense and the defense. Or, a position group feeling like they're being called out. We do those things behind closed doors. But, the reality is, there's room for growth there." Franklin believes this week is a good chance to take a step forward and execute properly. "But, this is an opportunity to take a step this week and build confidence moving forward. I think there's guys in that room that have the ability to do the job and do the job at a high level. But it's about consistency physically. But, it's also consistency mentally."Join the show to find out what we think that will look like on Saturday. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Today's questions feature a lengthy receiver conversation, offensive performance improvement guidelines, and more. Penn State trying to turn the page from Ohio State lossPenn State head coach James Franklin spoke with the media on Wednesday evening and tried to shift his focus forward to Indiana. However, the media was still interested in what happened last weekend against Ohio State. It's a delicate balancing act for Franklin to push forward but be a team-player with the fans and media. ""To be honest with you, we've had discussions about moving the press conference to Monday [from Tuesday] for a little bit of that reason, so we can move on and not keep doing this. Not keep going back and talking about it. I get [that the media] asks the questions. But for us., one of the ways to move on is to stop talking about it. And the hard part is [the media wants] to talk about it. Which, I get it. I totally get it." "But, it's kind of sending mixed messages. The best way to move on is to focus on the next opponent, learn from it, which we did on Saturday night, which we did on all day Sunday. But then, it's time to move on to the next opponent, learn the lessons from the game, make the corrections, and then pour all of our energy into finding a way to get a win against Indiana and playing well, so we can build that confidence and take it for the rest of the season."Penn State passing game The biggest question for the Nittany Lions this year is its passing game with a new starting quarterback and a thin group of proven wide receivers. Franklin admitted on Wednesday that this part of his team is lagging behind. "Yeah, we're behind in the passing game. I think we've shown some flashes. I think [Harrison "Trey" Wallce III]'s injury, when we didn't have a whole lot of proven guys before that; I think some guys that have kind of come in have transitioned a little bit slower than than we had hoped. But, this is an opportunity to take a step this week and build confidence moving forward. I think there's guys in that room that have the ability to do the job and do the job at a high level.

While the defense held up its end of the bargain, keeping the game to a one-score affair until late in the fourth quarter, the offense manged six points in the first 59 minutes of regulation.So what happens next and where does Penn State go from here? We'll break it down on the BWI Live Show, airing at 10 a.m. on YouTube. Penn State football insiders Nate Bauer and Sean Fitz join the show to discuss the game that they saw live and in person at Ohio Stadium.

Allar completed only 40% of his passes through the third quarter, thanks partly to four drops by his receivers during the game.The Nittany Lions only managed to get nine rushes apiece for Kaytron Allen and Nick Singleton during the game, which accounted for 74 of Penn State's 186 yards through the same time frame.We'll break down why those things happened, what went into Penn State's total meltdown on offense, and what happens next.Defense plays same game as last yearOnce again, the Penn State defense held the line for most of three quarters but fell late thanks to the cumulative pressure put on them by the game script. The defense held Ohio State to 12 points through most of the contest, but a late turnover on downs by the Penn State offense set up Ohio State for the final go-ahead drive that led to Marvin Harrison's lone touchdown on the day.Speaking of Harrison Jr., we'll review how Penn State covered the superstar wideout and how Kalen King availed himself in the biggest matchup of the year.Finally, we'll review how a loss like this on a national stage either hurts recruiting or doesn't.

The Penn State offense struggled to move the football all day, breaking their 30-point game-scoring streak. The Penn State defense once again kept the team in the game, holding the explosive Ohio State offense to ten points through three quarters.Join the BWI Live postgame show to discuss the game. Want to be part of the show? Drop your comments in the live chat to get your voice heard. We'll cover the team's issues on offense, the defensive performance from the Nittany Lions, and how Ohio State allowed the Nittany Lions to stick around in the game.Penn State offense fails to convertThe story of the game for the Penn State Nittany Lions was that they couldn't convert on third down. The team was 0-11 at one point early in the fourth quarter. Penn State had been a methodical offense that stayed ahead of the chains all year. But against Ohio State, that plan melted down.It was another sub-standard road game for quarterback Drew Allar as well. The sophomore quarterback got off to a rocky start, then the offense failed to protect him, with multiple pressures up the middle that forced throwaways. Allar ended the game under 60% completion percentage on the road for the third time this year.We'll cover what the Ohio State defense did to stop the Penn State attack in its tracks and force the offense into bad passing situations.The offense had one final gasp in the middle of the fourth quarter when head coach James Franklin elected to go for it on fourth down just shy of the 50-yard line. Allar was hit by Ohio State defensive end JT Tuimoloau, and the ball fell incomplete. The Buckeyes marched down the field for the nail-in-the-coffin moment.BWI Live: Penn State Comes up short vs Ohio State | Postgame Show#PennState #NittanyLionsJOIN Blue White Illustrated: https://www.on3.com/teams/penn-state-nittany-lions/join/?plan=annualSUBSCRIBE to Blue White Illustrated on YouTube and enable alerts - new highlights and videos uploaded regularly: https://www.youtube.com/c/bluewhiteillustratedvideo?sub_confirmationBookmark our homepage: https://www.on3.com/teams/penn-state-nittany-lions/Subscribe to BWI Magazine and Newsletters: https://bluewhiteonline.comDownload our podcasts: https://cms.megaphone.fm/channel/LRL3155877513?selected=DSVV2664982394Like us on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/BlueWhiteIllustrated/Follow us on Twitter https://twitter.com/PennStateOn3Sound effects obtained from https://www.zapsplat.com Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Head coach James Franklin was still ambivalent about how much he'd play this weekend."Yeah, we'll see. He's missed a little bit of time. So obviously getting him back, kind of in the mix and greased up and ready to go. The good thing is Vega's played well. So obviously, be able to evaluate that throughout the week.

We preview the game on today's BWI Live Show. Join the Keystone Kickoff Show's exclusive video presentation on the Blue White Illustrated YouTube Channel. We preview the Ohio State defense, offense, and where Penn State has advantages on Saturday.Penn State has to contend with the best receiver in AmericaWhile the Ohio State offense isn't what it's been in the past, the team still is incredibly dangerous thanks to Marvin Harrison Jr. We discuss how he can change the game in an instant. On Tuesday, Penn State head coach James Franklin broke down what makes him special."Well, I think number one, the thing that jumps out to me is his body control and ball skills. He's got the ability to contort his body in the positions and catch the ball effortlessly."I think that's the first thing.The other thing, he's just smooth and fluid. You know, a guy that you guys are familiar with that I think was smooth and fluid, similar to him is Jahan [Dotson]. The difference is this guy is doing it at 6'3", 6'4". It's interesting, you watch him on tape and he looks like he's got good size, but when you see him in person, he's a big dude."Critical Matchup for Nittany Lions interior O-LineWe also highlight an area that has performed well for the Nittany Lions this year. Can the interior of the Penn State offensive line, which will presumably be without starting guard JB Nelson, play to the same level that they've achieved against a very good defense? While we focus on the defensive line on today's show. Franklin explained the Ohio State defense and how it presents challenges in the run game with three safeties."When you're playing, say, a traditional 4-3, traditional 3-4, you got rules of how you account for the guys in the box. How you're going to block to the Sam, combo block to the Mike, combo block to the Will or you're reading the Will in the RPO.Now they got this extra safety like Ohio State is doing like Iowa State was the team that made it kind of sexy and popular out there. It's different than your normal rules of how you account for that guy in the run game.So that's where it can become challenging, is you're having to teach things different than you normally do," Franklin said.Join the BWI Live show at 10 a.m. on YouTube to learn more about the upcoming matchup between Penn State and Ohio State!#PennState #NittanyLionsJOIN Blue White Illustrated: https://www.on3.com/teams/penn-state-nittany-lions/join/?plan=annualSUBSCRIBE to Blue White Illustrated on YouTube and enable alerts - new highlights and videos uploaded regularly: https://www.youtube.com/c/bluewhiteillustratedvideo?sub_confirmationBookmark our homepage: https://www.on3.com/teams/penn-state-nittany-lions/Subscribe to BWI Magazine and Newsletters: https://bluewhiteonline.comDownload our podcasts: https://cms.megaphone.fm/channel/LRL3155877513?selected=DSVV2664982394Like us on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/BlueWhiteIllustrated/Follow us on Twitter https://twitter.com/PennStateOn3Sound effects obtained from https://www.zapsplat.comIs Penn State more talented than Ohio State this year?

Join the BWI Live Postgame Show immediately following the game to discuss the win and how the team is set up to face Ohio State in the defining game of the 2023 season next Saturday in Columbus.Penn State offense shakes off slow startIt was another slow start by the Nittany Lions until cornerback Daequan Hardy ripped off a 56-yard punt return for a touchdown on his first return of the season. The 5-9 corner had a strong game with a pass breakup and several disruptive plays in the first half. He later capped his career day with a second punt return for a touchdown.The team also committed its first turnover on offense for the 2023 season. Injured receiver Trey Wallace returned to the lineup and got off to a rusty start. He fumbled on a slant route to give up the ball, then missed a deep pass from Allar.But the slow start quickly faded away, and Penn State scored on four straight drives to blow the game open and put things to bed early in the third quarter. Penn State's offense finally found it's explosive stride with Wallace back in the lineup. Wallace caught a shallow pass and ran for 31 yards, and then Theo Johnson finally got involved in the deep passing game. Allar connected with the 6-6 tight end on a 30-yard touchdown strike over the middle to score early in the third quarter. Johnson followed that up with an 18-yard catch and run to put Penn State up 42-0 and the starters to call it a day.Defense domiantes againOnce again, the Penn State defense was beyond suffocating. This week's flavor of havoc was sacks. The team registered six of them before halftime and allowed just one net rushing yard in the shutout performance by the starters. Before the competitive portion of the game was over, UMass averaged five yards per drive. The defense also racked up 13 tackles for loss and was virtually unopposed into the backfield on run or pass plays on the afternoon. The standout performer was defensive end Adisa Isaac, who tallied 2.5 sacks and 3.5 tackles for a loss on the day.Join the BWI Live Postgame show as we discuss the game and preview the upcoming contest with Ohio State.Penn State takes on Ohio State in the pivotal game of the 2023 season coming up next Saturday.

Former Penn State defensive tackle Aeneas Hawkins gives you his thoughts on the upcoming game and the state of the Nittany Lions as they head into the pivotal second half of the season.The Penn State Football Tailgate Show is a production of Seven Mountains Media and is an exclusive video broadcast on the Blue White Illustrated YouTube channel.

Join us on the stream or listen locally on 99.5 The Bus.Penn State impressed with UMassPenn State head coach James Franklin discussed the UMass football team to begin the week and praised the Independent club for their innovation and production on offense.“Their offensive coordinator, we’ve been impressed with, Steve Casula. Steve is doing a really nice job for them. We’ve been impressed with them on offense.They’re an 11-person, no-huddle spread, heavy, heavy RPO team. Maybe the most explosive team we’ve played this year. If you look at them statistically, they’re No. 2 in major college football for plays of 50 yards or more. They’re ranked No. 2 in the country. Plays of 10 yards or more, they’re ranked ninth in the country, so this is an explosive team,” Franklin saidIt’s also the first game that Penn State should have number two wide receiver Harrison Trey Wallace back in the lineup in a meaningful way. Wallace appeared in the game against Iowa but wasn’t targeted and then missed the game against Northwestern the following week before the bye. During the show, Hawkins highlights the receivers in his Key Matchups segment to break down how Wallace’s return affects the offense.1-0, but with an eye on the futureOne of the key elements of the final non-conference game is health. Wallace is back, but the team lost guard JB Nelson during the last contest with Northwestern. Franklin wouldn’t comment on his stats, per his usual policy with injuries, but he did acknowledge that the team is, overall, in a good spot.“Nothing has changed with J.B. in terms of how we normally discuss injuries and things like that. Nothing has changed there.In terms of health, I think we’re in a pretty good place from the things that we talked about in terms of the number of reps our guys have had in games the number of guys we’re playing. I think we’re in a pretty good place from that perspective.I mean, obviously, you’d always love to be totally healthy, and we’re not that, but I think we’re in a pretty good place,” Franklin said.With the team’s showdown against Ohio State looming next week, getting out of this game healthy is a critical part of today’s contest. We’ll discuss the Penn State offense, defense, and give predictions for the game on today’s show.

Subscribe to Blue White Illustrated on YouTube: https://bit.ly/3KzEcqKThe Penn State football team takes on UMass Saturday for its final non-conference game of the season. While no one expects this to be a challenging game for the Nittany Lions, it's important to examine how the team can prepare for the second half of its season with this contest. Today on the BWI Live show, we'll examine five things we're looking for when Penn State takes the field against UMass.If you want to get your thoughts on how you'd like to see the Penn State offense and defense play, join the show live and discuss the game! We'll be taking live questions from the chat and discussing season-long trends in how the team has played so far this season.Penn State getting its groove backThe Penn State running game is productive but hasn't had the feel-good plays they wanted this season. Despite that, running backs coach Ja'Juan Seider is happy with how his tandem of Nick Singleton and Kaytron Allen have played so far this year."I really like where we're at. Contrary to belief, we run the ball effectively. We haven't had a long runs. Everybody knows that. But if you watch the film, you watch the defense the week before they play us, and the week when they play us, we are getting different defenses every week," Seider said.However, we'll discuss what head coach James Franklin said earlier in the week about how great running backs can get off their groove. Does Penn State need to re-establish that?We'll check in with Seider, who again puts that on the coaches and the defenses paying extra attention to his dynamic duo."Well, I mean, talking about instincts, I think a lot of that is on us as coaches, being able to get back to who we are in our running style and what plays we want to carry out the week. You know, we probably added some stuff in there that we wish, as a coach, you wish you'd maybe take back and get back to our fundamentals. But it's also a defense a lot of time, dictate what type of scheme we run throughout the week."UMass making things happen for both sides of the ballWe discussed earlier in the week that UMass's offense is explosive but plays with a risk-reward style. We'll dive into some numbers that illustrate what kind of day it will be for the defense if they can be opportunistic with their chances.Next, we'll examine how the UMass defense plays and how it might be tailor-made to get Penn State's struggling passing game back on track this week.Join the BWI Live show at 10 a.m. on YouTube, and be sure to subscribe so you don't miss any of our other live content coming up on game day!#PennState #NittanyLionsJOIN Blue White Illustrated: https://www.on3.com/teams/penn-state-nittany-lions/join/?plan=annualSUBSCRIBE to Blue White Illustrated on YouTube and enable alerts - new highlights and videos uploaded regularly: https://www.youtube.com/c/bluewhiteillustratedvideo?sub_confirmationBookmark our homepage: https://www.on3.com/teams/penn-state-nittany-lions/Subscribe to BWI Magazine and Newsletters: https://bluewhiteonline.comDownload our podcasts: https://cms.megaphone.fm/channel/LRL3155877513?selected=DSVV2664982394Like us on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/BlueWhiteIllustrated/Follow us on Twitter https://twitter.com/PennStateOn3Sound effects obtained from https://www.zapsplat.com Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

But then we didn't back it up with a Wednesday practice that was right. We're starting to kind of really figure out how to practice at a really high level on a consistent basis. And whether it's football or any other industry or sport, being really successful is about consistency," Franklin said afterward.He also made a statement to start his press conference about inaccurate reporting by national outlets, which we'll discuss on the show.Franklin also fanned the desires of some fans to see right tackle Caedan Wallace move from right tackle, paving the way for redshirt freshman Drew Shelton to take his place. Penn State's head coach mentioned that Wallace has gotten work at guard this year."It's just flexibility. Obviously, when we lost Landon, that changed some things for us. I think Caedan is the guy that has the feet and athleticism to play tackle, but he's also got the size and the power to play guard. He's 330 pounds or somewhere around there. So he just creates flexibility. That's good for us, and I think it's gonna be good for him long term as well."Game predictions and MailbagFinally, we'll preview the game and give score predictions.

We'll also explain how the defense has turned into a suffocating unit.Will Penn State offense be whole coming out of the bye?So, what's wrong with the Penn State passing game? Penn State head coach James Franklin was fairly blunt about the inconsistency issues.I think that's where -- that's been probably impacted as much as anything is when you really have two guys that have played a ton of football for you at the receiver position and there being some consistency and trust in practice and in games with those guys, and then you lose one of them for a couple of weeks, that magnifies that.Being able to have Trey [Wallace] back and KeAndre [Lambert-Smith] on the field while those other guys are developing those roles and those opportunities and that confidence, I think will be helpful.But I think getting Trey back is a huge piece of that puzzle," Franklin said.Penn State defensive line turning the corner?The Penn State defense has been suffocating over the last month of the season, thanks largely to an improvement up front. We'll discuss how the team's defensive tackles have taken strides to improve, not just as athletes but as football players. It's a sentiment Franklin backed up yesterday."We want our guys to be lean and athletic, but more importantly, they're playing in a way that they're so disruptive. We're more consistently gap sound. We're more consistently disruptive.I know Manny [Diaz] and Deion [Barnes] have been very pleased as we sit in there -- I watched the game typically on the ride home on the plane and then I watch it typically in the morning and then I watch it with the defense, and just hearing them talk about the defense and how we're playing, guys doing their job on a consistent basis.But they're also playing bigger in terms of being disruptive and being gap-sound and doing their jobs on a consistent basis," Franklin said.#PennState #NittanyLionsJOIN Blue White Illustrated: https://www.on3.com/teams/penn-state-nittany-lions/join/?plan=annualSUBSCRIBE to Blue White Illustrated on YouTube and enable alerts - new highlights and videos uploaded regularly: https://www.youtube.com/c/bluewhiteillustratedvideo?sub_confirmationBookmark our homepage: https://www.on3.com/teams/penn-state-nittany-lions/Subscribe to BWI Magazine and Newsletters: https://bluewhiteonline.comDownload our podcasts: https://cms.megaphone.fm/channel/LRL3155877513?selected=DSVV2664982394Like us on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/BlueWhiteIllustrated/Follow us on Twitter https://twitter.com/PennStateOn3Sound effects obtained from https://www.zapsplat.com Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Penn State Nittany Lions football head coach James Franklin spoke with the media on Tuesday to begin the second half of the 2023 season. We're recapping his conversation with the media. Among today's topics included Franklin singling out another football player that he said needs to get more attention, cornerback Johnny Dixon. Why has Franklin started doing this? Senior editor Nate Bauer discusses some of the subtext around players and how that has potentially changed how Franklin conducts his press conferences. Check out the full video here, or on the Blue White Illustrated YouTube Channel. Franklin singling out Penn State players While Franklin isn't afraid to talk about individual players, it was rare for him to bring up individual players unless asked about them. Now, he's done it several times this year during his opening statements of a weekly Tuesday press conference. "I did want to give one of our guys some love because I don't think he's getting enough attention for how well he is playing. It really started in training camp and has continued, and that's Johnny Dixon. I think Johnny is playing really good football. I think we have two corners-- we have more than that but two corners in Johnny and Kalen that are tough guys and that are physical at that position, which is less common now than it used to be.They do a really good job in a lot of different ways, not just defending the pass. Johnny is a great blitzer, then also supporting the run, so I wanted to give him some love because it's deserved," Franklin said. Bauer gives his thoughts about what could be driving this change from Franklin. Check out the video for his thoughts. Next, we discuss the team's health coming out of the bye week. The team has been observably healthy, minus wide receiver and left guard. So, how do you balance losing two players at guard and one of two consistent wide receivers but having a healthy team? We discuss the delicate balance Penn State has, especially on offense. Next, we dive into Penn State's quest for balance this year. Franklin once again detailed what he thinks balance on offense means. "I mean, as you guys know, we want to have the ability to run or pass. In any game and in any given situation, that's kind of how we view balance. We want to continue to build on that." But how many teams can do that? We discuss how close Penn State could be to achieving that ability to adapt to their environment each week and how hard it is to achieve. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

We're checking in on the Nittany Lions midway through their run at a Big Ten title to see how they're progressing on both sides of the ball. Join the Keystone Kickoff Show on the Blue White Illustrated YouTube to join the discussion about the Nittany Lion's progress so far.Penn State offense self-assessmentPenn State offensive coordinator Mike Yurcich spoke with the media during the bye week and addressed several issues on the offensive side of the ball. Despite scoring over 30 points per game this season, there are elements of the passing game that Yurcich isn't pleased with, namely, wide receiver communication with the quarterback.Yeah, it's a big concern with me right now and to us as an entire staff and we've got to remedy that fast. And we got to be on point with our landmarks and our depths of routes and our timing. That is something that we're going to address, and that is a big issue. We have to clean up."However, the nature of the offense comes down to the quarterback and how he sees the field. issues with route timing and communication don't matter unless the signal caller can process the information and make decisions. So far, Allar has been a by-the-book quarterback in his first season. He's building plenty of trust with the offensive staff, says Yurcich."I think Drew has a really good feel for seeing the field. He does a great job of going where he needs to go with the ball and where he should go with the ball based on what the defense has given us. So it's not a freelance type deal. When the ball snapped, they do whatever.Obviously, there's things that we go through and progressions and rules. And the more we have trust that he's going to follow those rules and when certain times come where he sees certain things and gets to a particular route or progression. There's thoughtfulness behind it," Yurcich said.Penn State defense benefitting from the offensive stylePart of Penn State's dominance over the last several weeks has been the team's ability to rest. The Nittany Lions are playing fewer snaps and have greater depth than in past years. Defensive coordinator Manny Diaz sees a fresh team when they step on the field."We are playing less snaps. Our offense has had a big help in that with the way that they possess the football. And ideally, that just keeps us fresher for the second half of the season. We've got some guys who have played 75 percent fewer stamps than they played this time last year. So there's a real added benefit to that," Diaz said.On today's show, we'll discuss elements of these topics, including the nature of the quarterback, the issues in the run game, and the offense's explosiveness. Defensively, we'll focus on areas that the team has improved through five weeks and discuss the nature of the defense and how it aims to dictate terms to the offense.#PennState #NittanyLionsJOIN Blue White Illustrated: https://www.on3.com/teams/penn-state-nittany-lions/join/?plan=annualSUBSCRIBE to Blue White Illustrated on YouTube and enable alerts - new highlights and videos uploaded regularly: https://www.youtube.com/c/bluewhiteillustratedvideo?sub_confirmationBookmark our homepage: https://www.on3.com/teams/penn-state-nittany-lions/Subscribe to BWI Magazine and Newsletters: https://bluewhiteonline.comDownload our podcasts: https://cms.megaphone.fm/channel/LRL3155877513?selected=DSVV2664982394Like us on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/BlueWhiteIllustrated/Follow us on Twitter https://twitter.com/PennStateOn3Sound effects obtained from https://www.zapsplat.comWhere can Penn State improve after 5-0 start? | Midseason Recap Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Once again, the Nittany Lions came out slow in the first half, with the score tied 10-10 heading into the break. The team then ripped off 17 unanswered points to put the game away in the third frame. Today, we'll discuss the Penn State offensive identity through the season's first five games. We'll pair that with the team philosophy and how the team's complimentary football approach works right now.Then, we'll dip into recruiting and give an updated evaluation of some of Penn State's Class of 2024 players by doing a live scouting session on the show.Want to be part of the conversation?

But is that lack of dominant, consistent performance from Drew Allar and company a concern? Fitz will discuss that facet of the team, which has become the obsession of Penn State fans. Also, we'll discuss the Penn Stae running game as well. How far off are the Nittany Lions from breaking big runs?We'll discuss the offensive progress through five games and try to identify common themes that will factor into the next half of the year.Defensive dominanceThe Nittany Lion's defense was once again the engine of destruction for another Big Ten offense.

Join the BWI Live Postgame Show to discuss the win and the Nittany Lion's 5-0 start. We'll break down the game, what happened, and how Northwestern's defense frustrated the Penn State offense.Despite the lack of explosive offense, the Nittany Lions scored 17 points in the third quarter to get a large enough lead to keep Northwestern at bay. Quarterback Ben Bryant also went down with an apparent shoulder injury after a third-down sack by Zane Durant that extinguished Northwestern's best chance to make the game competitive.Penn State defense puts up another elite performanceNot only did Penn State knock out the starting quarterback for Northwestern, but they suffocated the Wildcats offense through most of the game. Penn State racked up 10 TFLs in the competitive portion of the game and corralled four sacks and five QB hits.Once again, the defense held the line while the offense struggled to generate points in bunches. They limited Northwestern to under 200 yards of total offense and less than a yard per rush. The starting secondary still hasn't allowed a passing touchdown through five games of the year.Offense not stuck, but slowYet the story coming out of the game once again is the Penn State offense that struggled to generate explosive plays against a wounded Northwestern defense. The offense averaged 3.4 yards per carry on the day and the rushing offense failed to register a run of over 20 yards against a defense that allowed 20+ run plays of that kind through the last two games.The passing game had more success, but Allar was once again less effective on the road, completing 55% of his passes on the day. Injuries cropped up on Saturday as well. Starting running back Kaytron Allen also missed the second half of the game, and JB Nelson left on a cart in the first half. The team was already without starting lineman Landon Tengwall with a career-ending injury during training camp.Join the BWI Live postgame show to get your thoughts on air! We'll be taking your questions and comments about the team's win. Were you satisfied with another win that took time to develop? Or are you frustrated with the lack of big plays and dominant offense?

Penn State vs. NorthwesternPenn State head coach James Franklin made no secret that he thinks the lack of big energy is an advantage for Northwestern at home. These guys are 2-0 win at home.

It's going to be very different than what we played in last week. So just being transparent and honest. A we internally motivated? Or are we externally motivated?Big plays on the way? Franklin hasn't shied away from the conversation around explosive plays. It's a goal of his offense and program-building philosophy.

We'll explain how the quarters defense affects the Nittany Lions' passing attack and their rushing efforts. Head coach Jame Franklin explained how this two-high defense differs from the rest of the coverages in the same family."There's a big difference between two safeties, with a cover to philosophy two safeties, with a quarter-quarter half philosophy and then two safeties, that are playing quarters, because really quarters you could really put into, you know, a totally different family because it's a way to play middle of the field open but really technically nine guys in the box," Franklin said.We'll discuss how that's affected the Nittany Lions' passing and rushing attacks through four games this year.Tough, but how good are they?We'll dive into film analysis of the Northwestern defense next and discuss the nature of how this team plays defense. Are they as bad as the rushing stats would indicate? We'll highlight the strength of the Northwestern defense and how they have given up so many big plays in the run game.As with most games, Penn State will have the advantage on passing downs with an elite pass rush that can threaten any quarterback. But where is there a distinct advantage this week? We'll look at a matchup that Penn State can exploit, especially on third down.From there, we'll start to give predictions about how this game should go for Penn State from a game perspective. Is this the week Penn State puts explosive plays on the board? We'll explain how and why that's the case.Finally, we'll examine the top thing we'll watch on Saturday.

Head coach James Franklin addressed that after practice on Wednesday."Well, I think just being honest. Just being very honest about what it's going to be like. These guys are 2-0 win at home. You look at Northwestern; they've typically had good home records. Why? Because it can be challenging to play there. They're used to the environment. Other people may not be. It's going to be very different than what we played in last week. So, just being transparent and honest. Are we internally motivated? Are we externally motivated? But, for me to act like it's not a factor, it is; you got to get prepared for it," he said.Bauer and Fitz will discuss what they saw from the offense and defense in the team's preparation for the road battle with Northwestern.

We'll also explain the consequences of the fumble by Eric All in the red zone.Nittany Lions through four games, preview of NorthwesternThe Penn State offense has scored 30 points per game, yet the team still needs to completely fire on all cylinders. Where are the areas of improvement for the offense and defense? We'll discuss that and answer fans' questions. Have fans caught up to the play of Caedan Wallace? We answer a question about the long-time right tackle.Finally, we preview the offense for Northwestern and how that side of the ball likes to play. Head coach James Franklin gave an outline in his press conference on Tuesday."They're a no-huddle offense that really -- they can run tempo, but they're more kind of the illusion of tempo so they can see how you line up and then get to the plays they want to run. They base mainly out of 11 personnel. They want to throw the ball. I think that's where they feel like they have the best chance to be successful.""I do think Ben Bryant, their quarterback, is probably the best pure thrower that we've seen this year."Penn State Progress Through Four Weeks, Northwestern PreviewJOIN Blue White Illustrated: https://www.on3.com/teams/penn-state-nittany-lions/join/?plan=annualSUBSCRIBE to Blue White Illustrated on YouTube and enable alerts - new highlights and videos uploaded regularly: https://www.youtube.com/c/bluewhiteillustratedvideo?sub_confirmationBookmark our homepage: https://www.on3.com/teams/penn-state-nittany-lions/Subscribe to BWI Magazine and Newsletters: https://bluewhiteonline.comDownload our podcasts: https://cms.megaphone.fm/channel/LRL3155877513?selected=DSVV2664982394Like us on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/BlueWhiteIllustrated/Follow us on Twitter https://twitter.com/PennStateOn3Sound effects obtained from https://www.zapsplat.com Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Allar completed 68% of his passes as the Nittany Lions kept things short and controlled.The Penn State running attack wore down another opponent with 46 carries before the backups came in the game. Kaytron Allen and Nick Singleton combined for 38 carries and 121 yards in the competitive portion of the game. Penn State head coach James Franklin called his shot earlier in the week about how the game would play out."I also think in the Big Ten you look at statistically, we play good defense around here. There's going to be games where we've got to grind it out. You guys know Iowa. This is probably going to be another one of those games where we're going to have to grind it out. It's going to be a four-quarter game," Franklin said on Tuesday.The problem for Iowa, was that Penn State was the only team dong the grinding. The Nittany Lions had four drives of ten-plus plays and another drive of eight plays, all resulting in points. The offense was unrelenting, going 4-4 on fourth down.Penn State defense snuffs out another opponentOnce again, the Penn State defense set the offense up for success by smothering the Iowa offense. After an opening drive of six plays for 24 yards, Iowa didn't register another first down before Iowa put in their backups in the fourth quarter. The Penn State defense five straight three-and-outs with two fumble recoveries bracketing that performance.Curtis Jacobs, Adisa Isaac and Chop Robinson all forced a tackle for a loss during the game, with Robinson registering his first sack of the season and Isaac putting up his second.Enjoying the win?

But what's going to play out on the field this evening?Join the Penn State Football Tailgate Show, presented in conjunction with Seven Mountains Media, starting at 4:30 outside the Bryce Jordan Center, across the road from Beaver Stadium.

Catch the show on the Blue White Illustrated YouTube Channel or locally on 99.5 The Bus in State College.On today's show, we'll discuss Penn State's offensive plan and how they should attack Iowa and how the defense can counter the Hawkeyes ground attack.Penn State vs Iowa has deep roots.As Penn State head coach James Franklin noted earlier, there's a history between his team and Iowa over the years."First of all, it's almost like opening on the road in the Big Ten. We played Iowa more than anybody. Maybe you could make the argument part of maybe the best team in the west over our team here at Penn State. You could make that argument."But despite Kirk Ferentz's long-standing tenure at Iowa, Franklin is quickly climbing the rankings of veteran Big Ten coaches in his tenth season at Penn State. Consistency like this could breed a great game or complacency. Franklin says that evolving is necessary, but not at the cost of your identity."I think that really starts with two things, and that's hiring and recruiting, making sure that you're hiring the right people in the building and recruiting the right people into the locker room, and that you're transparent with them on what they're signing up for," Franklin said earlier this week."Then saying, Okay, they have to understand how to blend within the culture and align kind of with the identity, but then also allow a Manny Diaz to be Manny Diaz and play to his strengths and allow his strengths and experiences to add value to our overall organization, be able to have Drew [Allar] that we talked about, bring him into our organization. Like we talked about maybe a week or two ago, not put restrictions on Drew that it limits his development and his ability to be a unique player."Both Diaz and Allar will be central figures in today's show.

Head coach James Franklin has gotten used to it over the years."First of all, it's almost like opening on the road in the Big Ten. We played Iowa more than anybody. Maybe you could make the argument part of maybe the best team in the west over our team here at Penn State. You could make that argument.Again, we love that. We're appreciative of the Big Ten for that. I know it's random - random."Like many other Iowa teams, this group will represent a challenge in the running game. The team is strong up the middle with stout defensive tackles and physical linebackers. Is this another opportunity for the Penn State offensive line to prove themselves? Or is it another chance for the offensive scheme to pivot? We'll examine this topic from both angles and try to determine how Penn State will play with its ground game.On the flip side, is this the same old Iowa team? The Hawkeyes have struggled to score points and run the ball up the middle. We'll examine the opponent's success running in the A and B gaps and give film-level clues as to why.Next, we'll spotlight Drew Allar and the Penn State passing attack. How will the Nittany Lion's first-year starter handle the disciplined and tenacious coverage unit for Iowa in the White Out? We'll discuss the keys to keeping him upright.Biggest threat for Iowa out for the seasonTight end Luke Lachey's injury couldn't have come at a worse time for Iowa. We'll explain how important he was to the Iowa passing attack. Can the Hawkeyes pivot in one week?Finally, we'll get to the number-one wrinkle in the game that we find the most interesting. How will Allar fare against one specific coverage? We'll discuss those topics and your thoughts today on the BWI Live Show at 10 a.m.!Five Things to Watch in The White Out | Penn State vs Iowa Preview#PennState #NittanyLionsJOIN Blue White Illustrated: https://www.on3.com/teams/penn-state-nittany-lions/join/?plan=annualSUBSCRIBE to Blue White Illustrated on YouTube and enable alerts - new highlights and videos uploaded regularly: https://www.youtube.com/c/bluewhiteillustratedvideo?sub_confirmationBookmark our homepage: https://www.on3.com/teams/penn-state-nittany-lions/Subscribe to BWI Magazine and Newsletters: https://bluewhiteonline.comDownload our podcasts: https://cms.megaphone.fm/channel/LRL3155877513?selected=DSVV2664982394Like us on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/BlueWhiteIllustrated/Follow us on Twitter https://twitter.com/PennStateOn3Sound effects obtained from https://www.zapsplat.com Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Find out more on the BWI Live Recruiting Show, which airs at 10 a.m. on YouTube.White Out meaning for Penn StateThe White Out has become the landmark college football experience over the last 20 years and has made an impact socially, and strategically for Penn State. It's not just the football team that benefits from the weekend, says head coach James Franklin."No, I didn't have an understanding or an appreciation of the White Out. But now, obviously, not only is it impactful for us. You think about how many of our guys talk about their recruiting process and how the White out had a big impact on that. You think about when we got here, a lot of the good players that were on the team, talking about that five-overtime win with Michigan, it was a ton of guys on our roster that had experienced that. So it's meaningful. It's not just meaningful for our football program. This is a huge recruiting weekend for the other 30 sports as well. It'll be in some ways a zoo this weekend."On today's show, we'll discuss that zoo and outline just how many players will be on campus for the football recruiting weekend. Recruiting insiders Ryan Snyder and Sean Fitz will share some select names from the list of players planning to attend and highlight names you should know. One public announcement so far is that the top quarterback in the Class of 2025, Bryce Underwood, plans to attend the game.

Head coach James Franklin summed it up during his Tuesday press conference,"I think those guys have been great. I also think in the Big Ten you look at statistically, we play good defense around here. There's going to be games where we've got to grind it out. You guys know Iowa. This is probably going to be another one of those games where we're going to have to grind it out. It's going to be a four-quarter game."We'll discuss what Illinois did to fool Drew Allar and the Penn State offense on Saturday and how Allar was able to make good decisions in bad situations. We'll also discuss the issues behind Nick Singleton and Kaytron Allen's lack of big runs.Next, we'll examine how the defense smothered the Illinois plan of attack. The Illini managed only 62 yards rushing and turned the ball over five times. How did the defense get this done? We'll discuss Luke Altmyer and what Abdul Carter saw on film heading into the game that allowed him to intercept the first pass of the game. We'll also discuss how Daequan Hardy, Johnny Dixon and the rest of the secondary played the Illinois receivers and how they made it look easy.Finally, we'll preview the upcoming game against Iowa.

Head coach James Franklin clarified his thoughts after the game, saying that his team appreciates a win no matter how it looks. But fans have a different feeling. After consistently failing to run or pass on the Illinois defense, are fans right to be concerned? Blue White Illustrated football experts Sean Fitz and Nate Bauer will give their thoughts on how the Nittany Lions performed and how that translates to the future games on the schedule. Penn State quarterback Drew Allar completed just 48% of his passes on Saturday, after two lights-out performances to start the year. We'll dig into why Allar struggled and what this new information about the passing attack means for the team. We're now three weeks into the 2023 season, and the longest run by a Nittany Lion's running back is 20 yards. We'll discuss the offensive line, the running backs, and what's short-circuiting the team's explosive rushing tandem of Kaytron Allen and Nick Singleton. Defense comes up BigIt wasn't all bad for the Penn State football team on Saturday. The defense put together its most dominant performance of the young season, stifling the Illinois passing attack. The team came away with four interceptions with several other dropped opportunities on Saturday. The defensive performance was so impressive that it forced starting Illinois quarterback Luke Altmyer to the bench. The front seven also racked up two sacks, two quarterback hits, and various other pressures that led to the interceptions on Saturday. After a quiet statistical start to the season, is Penn State defensive coordinator Manny Diaz's defense back? We'll dive into the good and the bad of the performance from the defense on Saturday.

The efficient and explosive Nittany Lions offense struggled to find yards or points against the Illini defense. But the Penn State defense was too much for the Illinois offense, who turned the ball over five times in the game.Join the BWI Live postgame show to discuss the win and how Penn State performed during their first road Big Ten game of the season.

The defense got two official QB hits per the game book, but the Illinois passer took multiple shots during the game. The constant pressure and sticky Penn State defensive backs also forced the quarterback into four interceptions on the afternoon before he was pulled.After two quiet weeks, the defense was back to their old tricks in the run game as well. The team had five tackles for loss heading into the fourth quarter.The offense, thanks to another short field from a defensive interception from Cam Miller, broke the game open to start the fourth quarter. Nick Singleton finally got to the second level of the defense for an 18-yard touchdown run to put Penn State up by 23 points.Overall, the offense struggled, with Drew Allar completing less than 60% of his passes on Saturday. The sharp quarterback hadn't completed less than 78% of his throws in the first two games. Allar looked uncomfortable in the pocket for most of the game, thanks to the consistent pressure from the Illinois defense and wrecking ball Jer'Zahn Newton. Newton had a tackle for loss, two quarterback hits and a pass breakup to almost single-handedly keep Illinois in the game.We'll discuss these players, plays and more on the BWI Live postgame show.

Join the Penn State Football Tailgate Show at 9 a.m. to get yourself ready for the rematch between the Nittany Lions and the Illini!We're discussing the upcoming game and how Penn State matches up with Illinois in a rematch of the longest ever college football game. We'll discuss how Bret Beilema's squad has struggled out of the gate this year, and what they might do this week to change their fortunes. Then we'll discuss how the Nittany Lions can attack the 1-1 Big Ten West Team.Penn State's plan of attackStarting out on the road is nothing new for Penn State. Head coach James Franklin made pointed jokes about the fact that his team has started Big Ten play on the road for the 13th time in the last 14 years. But after opening the season on the road, is there a difference to do doing it in week three?"I'm not sure. We're just experts of opening on the road, whether it's the first game, the second game, the third game, the fourth game, not only in my ten years, but I think over the last 15 years. We're experts. So, I think we're going to put an offseason clinic on how to open in the Big Ten."The Penn State offense has been prolific this season, putting up 101 points in two games. Can they do it again this week? Having offensive coordinator Mike Yurcich in the press box has been a huge change for the team. one for the better.I think it's clearly the better place to call the game. You just can see it better. You're removed from the emotion. I think Danny O'Brien has done a good job on the sidelines as well. That's helped. But I think I think so far, so good. And we've had to iron out a few kinks that have happened, whether it's been with personnel or substitutions or some things that we got to get ironed out in terms of just a little bit of the differences on the sideline. But I think it's been good," Franklin said.The team may get veteran reinforcements this week with cornerback Daequan Hardy, defensive end Amin Vanover, and defensive tackle Coziah Izzard returning to practice earlier this week.The Penn State Football Tailgate show is a production of 7 Mountains Media and 99.5 The Bus in State College.

Some of those thoughts are the bedrock of today's show. Will we learn more about key aspects of the Nittany Lions team that we haven't yet?However, we start with a look at the Illinois defense, which has faltered through the first two weeks of the season. What's the issue? We'll explain how things have shaken out for the Illinois secondary.Next, we discuss areas that Penn State's defense needs to strengthen this week. Which defense will show up in week three? We've seen a group that struggled to tackle in space and one that shut down an FCS team. Illinois will represent another test to inform us of how the front-seven will play this year.Next, we'll try to glean which group of playmakers will face Illinois on Saturday. Will the team play three receivers? Or will Mike Yurcich stick with two tight ends. We'll discuss the pros and cons of each plan this weekend.Penn State stars playing like starsSo far, the Penn State defense has played a team approach, with everyone chipping into the performance. Part of that is by design, with plenty of rotation over the last two weeks. But can the team's star players play up to their billing this week? We highlight two players that should have big days against the Illinois defense.#PennState #NittanyLionsJOIN Blue White Illustrated: https://www.on3.com/teams/penn-state-nittany-lions/join/?plan=annualSUBSCRIBE to Blue White Illustrated on YouTube and enable alerts - new highlights and videos uploaded regularly: https://www.youtube.com/c/bluewhiteillustratedvideo?sub_confirmationBookmark our homepage: https://www.on3.com/teams/penn-state-nittany-lions/Subscribe to BWI Magazine and Newsletters: https://bluewhiteonline.comDownload our podcasts: https://cms.megaphone.fm/channel/LRL3155877513?selected=DSVV2664982394Like us on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/BlueWhiteIllustrated/Follow us on Twitter https://twitter.com/PennStateOn3Sound effects obtained from https://www.zapsplat.comFive Things To Watch in Penn State vs Illinois | How Good is PSU O-Line?

I can't really speak on it yet," he said after practice."Amin I've been very impressed with his maturity and growth over the last couple of years," Franklin said. "He's been really good.

Penn State's top two runners of Nick Singleton and Kaytron Allen had 31 combined carries, 150 yards and four touchdowns to lead the offense. Overall, the Penn State offense rushed for nearly 300 yards on the day, with Trey Potts and Beau Pribula getting plenty of action in the third and fourth quarters.Allar was efficient on the day, completing 22 of 29 passes for 204 yards and one rushing touchdown from the goal line. Allar was patient on the day but didn't hit many explosive passing plays, with a long of 26 yards.Defense is almost lights outThe Penn State defense dominated almost every drive, the way you'd expect with a matchup like this against an FCS opponent. The defense had five three-and-outs before the middle of the fourth quarter when the backups entered the game. An offsides on a punt extended one other drive.KJ Winston turned up the heat just after halftime when he picked up a forced fumble caused by fellow safety Keaton Ellis. Later, backup linebacker Dom DeLuca intercepted a pass for a touchdown to put a fine point on his day. DeLuca had a near interception several drives earlier in the third quarter.What's next?Penn State faces Illinois on next Saturday for its second noon kick. Illinois lost to Kansas 34-23 on Thursday night. It's the Big Ten opener for the Nittany Lions, who have opened Big Ten play on the road once again.

While fans may not feel the same juice as the opening game, which was a primetime stripe-out, it's an important part of the calendar for the Nittany Lions. Can they get better this week and improve on the mistakes they made in the prior game?We're breaking it down into five things you should watch for in the game to see if the offense and defense made the corrections they needed to from the previous week.We'll take you through some hidden areas that West Virginia attacked during the opening game, critical corrections for the offense and defense, and which players should dominate in the matchup against the Fighting Blue Hens.Join the show live at 10 a.m. to discuss the game and any questions you have! We'll be taking comments throughout the show from the live audience.Penn State Five Things:The first area we'll start with is the defense. Last week the unit played well in critical moments, as head coach James Franklin explained in his Tuesday press conference."I thought defensively what stood out to me is we played our best when it was needed most. There's some things that we've got to get cleaned up for sure. But when we needed to make plays on defense, we did. That was important," Franklin said.We'll highlight the areas where Franklin wants his team to improve.The next area on our countdown is the offensive line. The group, along with the running backs, was efficient and gained good yardage on each play, but one area still bothers the group up front. We'll dive into the numbers of where and how the Penn State offensive line gave up pressure.Does West Virginia set a template?The Mountaineers had a sneaky-good idea for attacking Penn State's third-down defense. Is this an area other teams will exploit? We're not expecting Delaware to try the same plan of attack, but we'll explain how Penn State's vaunted Prowler defense was put on the defensive during the game last Saturday.From there, we'll dig into how the defense can improve and clean up their play from the previous week. It's not as drastic as some fans think, but there are corrections the team needs to make to be ready for Big Ten play.Lastly, we'll look at the position group that we think will impact the game this weekend. Find out why Nick Singleton and Kaytron Allen need to lead the way for the offense on Saturday.Penn State vs Delaware | Five Things to Watch | Nick Singleton and Kaytron Allen go off?#PennState #NittanyLionsJOIN Blue White Illustrated: https://www.on3.com/teams/penn-state-nittany-lions/join/?plan=annualSUBSCRIBE to Blue White Illustrated on YouTube and enable alerts - new highlights and videos uploaded regularly: https://www.youtube.com/c/bluewhiteillustratedvideo?sub_confirmationBookmark our homepage: https://www.on3.com/teams/penn-state-nittany-lions/Subscribe to BWI Magazine and Newsletters: https://bluewhiteonline.comDownload our podcasts: https://cms.megaphone.fm/channel/LRL3155877513?selected=DSVV2664982394Like us on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/BlueWhiteIllustrated/Follow us on Twitter https://twitter.com/PennStateOn3Sound effects obtained from https://www.zapsplat.com Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

The sophomore Penn State quarterback completed 72.4% of his passes, going 21-29 for 325 yards and three touchdowns. Those figures earned him a Big Ten Player of the Week honor by the conference and his team's offensive MVP for the game.We discuss how Allar made dissecting a somewhat complicated defense look easy. If you'd like more information, check out this week's film study on the passing game.https://www.on3.com/teams/penn-state-nittany-lions/news/t-franks-film-room-penn-state-quarterback-drew-allar-shows-franchise-traits-in-first-win/The main thrust of how Yurcich attacked the West Virginia defense dealt with unbalanced formations and safety manipulation within those looks.The first-time Penn State starter was also effective over the intermediate middle of the field, which is typically difficult for a first-time starter. He completed 100% of his six passes for 118 yards during the game.**PFF updated their statistics upon review and charted one incompletion over the middle that was originally elsewhere.Penn State defensive reviewThe Penn State defense didn't have the shutdown performance that most fans expected, with multiple big-time plays. However, head coach James Franklin pointed out on Tuesday they were good at the right time."I thought defensively what stood out to me is we played our best when it was needed most. There's some things that we've got to get cleaned up for sure. But when we needed to make plays on defense, we did. That was important," Franklin said.However, he expects more from the backups, who allowed a late score in the fourth quarter."Then I think back to the point I made earlier is whoever is in the game, the standard is still the same. When we got a lot of those backups in the game on defense against mostly the 1s of their offense, the expectation is to still play up to our standard of defense."#PennState #NittanyLionsJOIN Blue White Illustrated: https://www.on3.com/teams/penn-state-nittany-lions/join/?plan=annualSUBSCRIBE to Blue White Illustrated on YouTube and enable alerts - new highlights and videos uploaded regularly: https://www.youtube.com/c/bluewhiteillustratedvideo?sub_confirmationBookmark our homepage: https://www.on3.com/teams/penn-state-nittany-lions/Subscribe to BWI Magazine and Newsletters: https://bluewhiteonline.comDownload our podcasts: https://cms.megaphone.fm/channel/LRL3155877513?selected=DSVV2664982394Like us on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/BlueWhiteIllustrated/Follow us on Twitter https://twitter.com/PennStateOn3Sound effects obtained from https://www.zapsplat.com Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
