The team lost to number-one-ranked Ohio State on Saturday, 38-14, and now faces number-two ranked Indiana this coming weekend. Reporter Thomas Frank Carr discusses three things he learned about the Penn State Football team during the loss. He discusses a fundamental flaw in the defense based on what Ohio State did to have success on the ground. He also explains how Ohio State went right at the heart of the defensive secondary to get big plays. Finally, he explains why he had a problem with the timing of play calls on offense and how Andy Kotelnicki and the offensive staff didn't put quarerback Ethan Grunkemeyer in the best position to succeed. #PennState #NittanyLions JOIN 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.com Like us on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/BlueWhiteIllustrated/Follow us on Twitter https://twitter.com/PennStateOn3 Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Click here to sign-up! https://www.on3.com/teams/penn-state-nittany-lions/newsletter/join/It's another week and another loss for the Penn State Football team. The program is now on an unprecedented five-game losing streak and is winless in Big Ten play this year. The latest loss was a predictable 38-14 dismantling by Ohio State on the road in Columbus. Today on the BWI Live Show, we'll discuss the loss and what interim head coach Terry Smith had to say about it on Monday during his weekly press conference. We'll also discuss the game from our perspective, and what we think there is left to salvage for the team as they head home to face second-ranked Indiana on Saturday at noon. Join the show live at 10 a.m. on YouTube to discuss the situation with us! We'll take your questions and comments during the live show to get your reaction to the latest loss. Of course, if you want to get the latest news as the team is a month out from the early signing period and the potential to name its next head coach, subscribe to the Blue White Illustrated YouTube channel! Terry Smith Press Conference We'll start with Smith's comments about the game. It's a similar refrain today on Between the Lines, where Smith answers questions about the Penn State passing attack and the lack of involvement for players like Koby Howard and Tyseer Denmark. We'll also discuss Smith's comments about how his former cornerback room let up three explosive pass plays when those were the top priority to stop on Saturday. Penn State vs Ohio State RecapNext, we'll give our thoughts on how the game played out. Why can't the team pass the football? What makes the offense so frustrating to watch? We'll discuss the issues that the team has and why Liam Clifford is part of the offense as a wildcat quarterback. Finally, we'll discuss how this playcalling is indicative of bad teams. Next, we'll discuss the defensive effort and whether there's anything the team can build on for the next coaching staff, for players who can return if they choose not to enter the transfer portal. Finally, we'll look ahead to the final month of this season. Can Penn State make a bowl game? Will the team go to one if they get to six wins? We'll discuss the realities of the situation as we enter the final month of the 2025 season to see what is in store for the wounded Penn State football team. #PennState #NittanyLions JOIN 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.com Like us on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/BlueWhiteIllustrated/Follow us on Twitter https://twitter.com/PennStateOn3 Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

It's the fifth loss in a row for the Lions, who are now 3-5 and winless in Big Ten play. Interim head coach Terry Smith deployed new ideas on offense and defense after the team's bye week, but it wasn't enough to help the team overcome the highly talented Buckeyes. Join the Labatt Postgame Show to discuss the loss, what it means for the team's 2025 season, and what the team tried to do differently this week. We'll be taking your questions, comments, and thoughts about the game for the duration of the hour-long show. Want to know when we go live after the game?

Your home for the final stretch of the Penn State football season is Blue White illustrated! Penn State drops its fifth straight gameDespite the loss, Penn State went down swinging. In a battle of two teams determined to play methodical football, the Lions matched the Buckeyes in the first half. Despite uneven play to start the game, the offense put together a 15-play 75-yard drive that took up nearly eight minutes of game time in the second quarter before a Nick Singleton touchdown brought the game within three points. From there, it was a battle of big-play moments where the Penn State defense once again failed to sack the quarterback on third down, and Ohio State passer Julian Sayin scrambled for a first down on third and five. Soon after, he tossed a 45-yard touchdown to Carnell Tate to extend the lead by seven. Things looked bleak with four minutes left in the first half as Penn State punted on the following drive, giving Ohio State the chance to double-dip before halftime. However, CJ Donaldson fumbled the ball and Chaz Coleman picked it up, returning it to the 13-yard line. Penn State then punched the ball in to score before halftime. However, Ohio State made adjustments after halftime, and the Buckeyes' offense was just too much for the Penn State defense. The Buckeyes compiled three plays of 50-plus yards on three straight drives to blow the game open and get the runaway win. More postgame content Of course, you don't want to miss Smith's comments after the loss to Ohio State. We'll have those for you moments after his press conference concludes here on the YouTube Channel. We'll also have reporter Greg Pickel's thoughts on how the game played out and what he saw from the press box in his Instant Analysis. Things don't get easier for the Nittany Lions, who face Indiana, the second-ranked team in the country, at home next week. We'll have coverage wrapping up the loss to Ohio State on Sunday and Monday, before shifting focus to the next game with Smith's Monday press conference next week. #PennState #NittanyLions JOIN 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.com Like us on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/BlueWhiteIllustrated/Follow us on Twitter https://twitter.com/PennStateOn3 Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Penn State decommit and flip updateWe'll rip the band-aid off to begin the show and discuss the bad news for the program. Several players have announced their decisions to decommit from the program and look for a new place to play football. We'll also discuss defensive tackle Alex Haskell's decision to skip that part and flip to Syracuse this week. Next, we'll outline the latest info on where players plan to visit in the coming weeks. Can Penn State's current staff fend off the attack from other top schools to keep players in the program long enough for athletic director Pat Kraft to find the next head coach? Must-keep players Penn State doesn't have a top-five class by any means, but there are some very talented players in the 2026 recruiting cycle. Today, we'll discuss which players are must-keep prospects in the 2026 class. If Penn State can get any players to stick around, this group is essential to be on that list. We'll discuss why linebackers Elijah Littlejohn and Terry Wiggins are part of this group, along with safety Darrell Carey. What's the timeline for enrollment? Finally, Snyder will discuss the timeline for how long players can wait around to find out who will be Penn State's next head coach.

The team, fresh off the emotional blow of head coach James Franklin's firing, couldn't get it done on the road and lost to the Iowa Hawkeyes. We'll discuss the game, how the team responded to the week, and what another loss means to the program. Join the show live immediately following the game to discuss the loss. We'll be talking with fans for roughly an hour about what led to the defeat and what the team's outlook is now that it's struggling for bowl eligibility. The Penn State football team fights to close finish Interim head coach Terry Smith fired up his team this week and found the right combination on offense and defense to play a close game with the Hakweyes. Defensively, Zakee Wheatley got an interception on Iowa's first drive of the game, which Penn State turned into a touchdown. After a field goal by Iowa, the team traded punts for much of the first half. Then, after an Ethan Grunkemeyer interception set up an Iowa touchdown, it seemed that all was going the wrong way for the Nittany Lions. Penn State punted with roughly a minute left in the first half, and Iowa set up for a 66-yard field goal. Defensive tackle Xavier Gilliam blocked the attempt, and Elliot Washington returned the block for a touchdown before half. The team then scored coming out of halftime to take a 21-10 lead. However, the Nittany Lions tried to go for a fourth and one from their own 40-yard line, which tight end Luke Reynolds did not convert. Penn State and Iowa traded drives in the fourth quarter but Iowa QB Mark Granowski broke a long 67-yard run to set up the go-ahead touchdown for the Hawkeyes.

Blue White Illustrated is out on the road in Iowa, and reporter Greg Pickel will bring you Smith's comments, plus his own thoughts on the game afterward, with our weekly Instant Analysis.

Penn State lost to Northwestern, dropping to 3-3 on the season and winless in conference play. What's more, they may have lost their starting quarterback. The team fell in another frustrating performance, thanks to a listless defense and special teams that allowed Northwestern a late lead. Then, quarterback Drew Allar left the game with a lower-leg injury. Join the BWI Live postgame show to discuss the loss and what it means for the teams going forward. We'll be taking your questions and comments on the show as the team struggles to find its way. Penn State's ugly season gets uglier The Penn State defense once again struggled to get off the field, giving up multiple ten-plus play drives to Northwestern, aided by penalties and special teams blunders. The defense allowed Northwestern quarterback Preston Stone to get into a rhythm, completing 65% of his attempts. The team's sloppy performance on defense included two face-mask penalties and another offside on third down. Penn State's offense fails to convert in the second half Penn State's offense was much less anemic early in the game, with Kaytron Allen gaining 59 yards in the first half. However, a Drew Allar interception on the team's first drive, after a blocked punt, ended the team's first scoring opportunity. Late in the game, a muffed punt by Devonte Ross set up Northwestern with a field goal attempt to take the lead. Penn State returned fire with a 67-yard catch and run from Ross, which set the team up for a one-yard Drew Allar score. However, the defense broke down on the return drive from Northwestern, allowing a touchdown and a 22-21 lead for the Wildcats. On the ensuing possession, Allar hurt his ankle on a third-down stop, and backup quarterback Ethan Gurnkemery found the same success on fourth down. Penn State's defense failed to stop Northwestern, and the Wildcats held the clock.More hard questions for Penn StateThe wheels have truly come off for the Penn State football team. Head coach James Franklin's comments after the game are here on the Blue White Illustrated YouTube channel. We'll have those moments after its conclusion. We'll also have Instant Analysis from the sidelines of Beaver Stadium with reporters Sean Fitz, Nate Bauer, and Greg Pickel. What happens next for the Lions? The next few days will be very tense in Happy Valley. #PennState #NittanyLions JOIN 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.com Like us on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/BlueWhiteIllustrated/Follow us on Twitter https://twitter.com/PennStateOn3 Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Tensions are high, and the cacophony of noise surrounding the program is at an all-time high. Yesterday, Penn State head coach James Franklin sat down in front of the media to answer questions from the assembled reporters. Today, we'll cover that conversation and his answers to tough questions about the lack of performance from his team this past weekend. The team lost to a winless UCLA squad that replaced all of its coordinators in the last two weeks. Today, we'll talk about Franklin's responses to questions and review the game from Saturday.

Franklin was asked tough questions about why his team is underperforming expectations right now, and we'll replay his answers and then give our thoughts and interpretations of his answers. Today, we'll discuss the team's effort in the loss to UCLA and if that was an issue that Franklin saw when watching the game. We'll also dive into his answer about why his team has been inconsistent and slow to adapt this year. Finally, we'll discuss his call for his team to band together and not fracture under the pressure of the current adversity and scrutiny. How did we get here? Penn State vs UCLAPenn State lost 42-37 to UCLA on Saturday in the biggest upset in college football this season. The winless Bruins took the opening kickoff and never looked back, scoring 27 points in the first half while keeping Penn State's offense off the field for most of the first 30 minutes. We'll discuss the offensive and defensive performances from the game and give our thoughts on the major storylines that have come from the loss in the last four days. Finally, we'll wrap up the show with our look ahead to the next week in Penn State football. #PennState #NittanyLions JOIN 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.com Like us on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/BlueWhiteIllustrated/Follow us on Twitter https://twitter.com/PennStateOn3Penn State vs UCLA Meltdown and Fallout | Franklin Press Conference, Game Recap Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Join the Penn State Football postgame show to discuss the loss, and what it means for the Nittany Lions. The Lions are now 3-2 and 0-2 in conference play. Penn State defense gets off-kilter from UCLA attackLast week, the Penn State defense gave up over 400 yards to the Oregon offense in a nail-biting, overtime loss to Oregon in which they only surrendered 3 points through 40 minutes of game time. This week, they surrendered nearly 300 yards and 27 points in the first half. UCLA's new-look offense shifted its focus and dialed up an unexpected game plan for the Nittany Lions, focusing on short, quick passes. Quarterback Nico Iamaleava was 14-18 before halftime with 158 passing yards and two touchdowns as a result. Once UCLA had Penn State off-balance, they threw deep passes over the heads of the Penn State corners, completing passes against Zion Tracy and Elliot Washington in man coverage. Penn State offense is effective but rarely on the fieldMeanwhile, the Penn State offense sat on its hands for most of the first half. UCLA dropped a surprise onside kick to take back-to-back possessions to start the game. Despite an effective opening drive in which the team marched down the field 10 plays for 75 yards and a touchdown in just four and a half minutes, the offense was rarely on the field. Penn State had just three possessions during the first half. One of the key possessions in that half was right before the break. Penn State had all three timeouts and the ball near midfield. Penn State head coach James Franklin opted to drain the clock on the front half of the drive, but his team failed to convert a fourth and 4. UCLA took the ball over on downs with two timeouts left and gained enough yardage for a field goal to go up 27-7. Despite a furious comeback in the second half, Penn State's defense only forced one punt and a long field goal attempt.Next up for Penn StateWhat did Franklin have to say after the loss? Check out his postgame comments here on the Blue White Illustrated YouTube Channel after the show. We'll also have reactions from the staff here on the site.

The atmosphere provided by the fans was electric to a new level and provided an incredible backdrop for the team's recruiting efforts, which we've chronicled on the BWI Live Recruiting Show for over a month.

We'll discuss the impact on the defense, the team, and what happens next for the program. White Out recruiting recapWe discussed the White Out list for over a month on the Recruiting Show, heading into the biggest game of the team's home schedule. Now that the dust is settling from the event, what was the impact? Reporter Sean Fitz details what he's learned about the team's recruiting influence from the event and what he thinks will come from the game. We'll also outline a flurry of recruiting predictions from Steve Wiltfong in favor of the Nittany Lions after the game. UCLA PreviewFinally, we'll end the show discussing the upcoming game against the floundering UCLA Bruins. The team fired yet another coordinator on Tuesday of this week, giving Penn State an unprecedented challenge of preparing for a team with almost no on-field history before the game. What does the Penn State offense need to do to get on track? What do we expect from the team on that side of the ball? We'll break down the adjustments and expectations for the Lions out in LA this weekend. Finally, we'll detail what UCLA can do on offense and how the team can manage to execute a strong defensive game plan without Rojas on the field.

Blue White Illustrated learned on Wednesday that starting linebacker Tony Rojas suffered a long-term injury and will be out for the foreseeable future. The defense was already paper-thin at linebacker, with only Rojas, Amare Campbell, and veteran Dom DeLuca seeing snaps with the starting unit. Last week against the Ducks, DeLuca only played eight defensive snaps, while Rojas played 70 and Campbell played 75 of the 80 total snaps on defense. We discuss what the next steps are for the Penn State defense under Jim Knowles and discuss how important Rojas was to the scheme. We'll highlight the next players up and what the team can do from here. #PennState #NittanyLions JOIN 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.com Like us on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/BlueWhiteIllustrated/Follow us on Twitter https://twitter.com/PennStateOn3BREAKING: Penn State Linebacker Tony Rojas Suffers Long Term Injury | Fallout Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

The LA Times reported last night that offensive coordinator Tino Sunseri has parted ways with the program, and Jerry Neuheisel will take over as playcaller. How does this affect Penn State's game plan for the Bruins? What could change in such a short order? We'll discuss the impact of such a move on this weekend's game. Penn State offensive fixes During Monday's press conference, Penn State head coach James Franklin fielded multiple questions about how his offense has performed and what it might need to do in order to change the narrative around the program. Today, we'll utilize some of that information, along with our own research into the offensive output, and propose some short-term and long-term solutions that can help reignite the Lions' offensive productivity. We'll look at the run game and how the team can reorganize its ground attack. However, the bulk of our time will be spent examining the Penn State passing attack and how the team can improve its ineffective aerial offense. Despite the anger and concern, there might be some quick fixes that could spell a positive outcome for the program's top quarterback, Drew Allar. Then, we'll examine some longer-term changes to the offense that may take time but would be worth considering. Best Bets and UCLA Preview Finally, we'll look at the game from a prognostication standpoint and discuss Penn State's over-under in this week's Best Bets segment. We'll end the show discussing UCLA's offense and defense as we've seen it to give fans an expectation of how this weekend should go. #PennState #NittanyLions JOIN 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.com Like us on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/BlueWhiteIllustrated/Follow us on Twitter https://twitter.com/PennStateOn3 Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

This time, we're recapping the team's loss to Oregon and spending most of the show's first half discussing the three points and 109 yards the team gained before the fourth quarter. What's wrong with that side of the ball? We'll give our thoughts on what happened and where the blame should fall after the loss. Of course, some fans are unhappy with the 400+yards the defense gave up on Saturday, despite holding Oregon to just three points through halftime and 17 points through regulation. We'll discuss how the defense performed and what they need to do to play a stingier brand of football. Between the LinesAfter we give our reaction to the game, we'll turn our attention to Franklin's comments during his Monday press conference. How does the team bounce back and make adjustments? How hard are those adjustments to make? We'll share Franklin's thoughts with you and then provide an interpretation of his words.

If you're waking up on Sunday morning and want to learn more about the game, check out the BWI Live Show on replay in this article, on the Blue White Illustrated YouTube Channel, and wherever you get your podcasts. Penn State struggle on offense in another big game The Penn State offense failed to show up in another big game. The team gained just 69 yards in the first half and scored a field goal early in the game. Unsurprinsgly, the offense was poor on third down again tonight, going only 4-11 (36%) through the third quarter. The offense woke up late, with a 34-yard touchdown strike from quarterback Drew Allar to receiver Devonte Ross. Penn State had the ball with four minutes left in the game down seven points, but the offense failed to punch the end zone to tie the game up. Defense plays a warrior's game With the offense struggling, the Nittnay Lions defense was able to keep the team in the game against an explosive and dangerous Oregon offense. Penn State gave up yards, but kept a lid on Dakorien Moore and Dante Moore, the talented duo at receiver and quarterback for Oregon. Linebaker Amare Campbell and safety Zakee Wheatley led the team in tackles and plays throughout the game, but wore down late, giving up two touchdowns in the third and fourth quarters to give up an insurmountable lead. More Postgame coverage: Of course, you'll also likely want to know what Penn State head coach James Franklin had to say after the game. We'll have his full press conference comments on our YouTube Channel following the loss.

Today on the BWI Live Recruiting Show, we'll discuss what the team is up to this weekend, and more importantly, what the coaches will be doing on the recruiting front. With a massive number of recruits coming to Happy Valley for the White Out Game next weekend, the recruiting blitz is on for Penn State. Join the show as we give fans an early preview of who is coming to the biggest home game of the season.

Penn State recruiting news update It was a black week for several schools, as Virginia Tech head coach and former Penn State defensive coordiantor Brent Pry and UCLA head coach Deshaun Foster were fired by their schools. With the changes in NCAA rules, the gates are now open for the players on those rosters to enter the transfer portal. What does this mean for Penn State and its roster? Fitz and Snyder will discuss the potential opportunities for adding players and how that process works in the current landscape. Next, we'll discuss the most important visitor from last weekend's win over Villanova. Five-star running back Kemon Spell was supposed to join the program for the game against FIU the week before but an ankle injury prevented him from making the trip. Instead, Spell made the trip to Happy Valley last weekend. We'll discuss what it means for the team to get its top recruit for 2027 back on campus two weekends in a row. Nonconference recruiting recapAfter that, we'll transition into discussing how the first three games of the season went for the team's recruiting efforts. Snyder has been tracking who is showing up on campus for the team's non-conference games and gives us a broad look at what Penn State accomplished in the last month. We'll follow that up with a White Out preview and what fans should expect about one week from the biggest home game of the recruiting calendar for this cycle. Coaches on the road and the Rivals 300 update Finally, we'll discuss the recruiting plan for the team this weekend. With the extra time to recruit, Penn State's coaches will be out on the road seeing commits and prospects. How has this changed over the previous years? We'll hear from head coach James Franklin on his schedule over the next few days. Finally, we'll finish the show by discussing the latest recruiting rankings update for the Class of 2026. After roughly a month of high school games, which players are moving up and down the Rivals 300? Snyder outlines the biggest movers on the list. #PennState #NittanyLions JOIN 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.com Like us on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/BlueWhiteIllustrated/Follow us on Twitter https://twitter.com/PennStateOn3 Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Most indications are that this would be a good place to be. Yet why are there alarm bells ringing and fire alarms going off inside the Penn State fan base? Today on the BWI Live Show, we'll discuss the 52-6 win over Villanova. Then, we will discuss how the team has played through the first three games of the season to try to understand why it feels like an uncomfortable and uneasy undefeated start.

Penn State vs Villanova recapMost of today's show will be dedicated to recapping the game against Villanova and how the team played against the FCS in-state program. Why did the offense struggle to find its rhythm again? What were the challenges that 'Nova presented to the offense? We'll discuss our thoughts on the game, focusing on both the offense and defense. Next, we'll transition to the broader picture of the program's operation in the first three weeks of this year. It's fair to say that Penn State's offensive stars, Drew Allar and Nick Singleton, have not been playing like stars. Is there a reason why? We'll give our thoughts on what we've learned about the program and what Franklin has said this month that has informed our opinions. We'll also look at the Penn State defense and what we've learned about that side's progress through the first month of the calendar to assess if they're ready to take on Oregon next weekend in the White Out Game. Finally, we'll preview open practice, which is tonight at 5 pm. What do we think we'll see at practice? We'll discuss the team's plans for the next steps in recruiting and why the team is working today instead of on Wednesday.

The Nittany Lions offense once again looked uncomfortable against FCS Villanova. Join the BWI Live Labatt Postgame Show to discuss the win and what you thought of the game and the team's performance through three games. We'll be taking your questions and comments throughout the sixty-minute show. Penn State puts up 21 points in the first halfOnce again, the Penn State offense failed to look crisp and effective in the first half of the game. Quarterback Drew Allar had a 50% completion percentage and only 80 yards passing in the second quarter. Much of that came at the two-minute warning when he found receiver Trebor Pena on a 21-yard touchdown strike to cap the team's two-minute drive. The run game also struggled to blow away the crowd. Nick Singleton led the team with 20 carries before the backups came in for the fourth quarter. He rushed for 84 yards but failed to rip off long runs or break tackles. However, he did find the end zone twice. The offense focused on the receivers early, with Pena leading the squad, tallying 60 yards on four catches, including seven targets. However, the big plays once again came from the tight ends. Luke Reynolds ripped off a 22-yard catch and run and caught four catches for 73 yards and a score. Defense gives the Nittany Lions breathing room on offenseOn the flip side, the Penn State defense was the dominant force that fans wanted from the team. They allowed just six yards in the first quarter and amassed 45 of their 69 yards in the first half on one 45-yard drive that ended in a missed field goal. The starting defense allowed just three drives that didn't result in a three-and-out. The linebackers were once again heavily involved in the action. Amare Campbell had three tackles for a loss, and Tony Rojas had two to lead the team. Both players were the leading tacklers with 5 and 7, respectively. The duo also tallied three combined sacks, thanks to suffocating coverage. The team used both to spy the Villanova quarterbacks, resulting in late-down pressures. What's next for the team?Penn State enters its first bye week of the season and seems to have gone through the first three games with no major injuries to starters in game action. The team will need to sharpen its play on offense because top-five Oregon comes to town on Sept. 27 for the annual White Out game. #PennState #NittanyLions JOIN 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.com Like us on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/BlueWhiteIllustrated/Follow us on Twitter https://twitter.com/PennStateOn3Penn State vs Villanova Postgame Show: Offense Still Uneven in Blowout Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

It will likely be a slow recruiting weekend with an FCS team in town, but recruiting is about to heat up. The team goes on a bye following the game, which means the coaches will be hitting the road to recruit for a few days before returning to prepare for Oregon in the 2025 White Out Game. Today, we'll do an early preview of the coming weeks, plus discuss Wednesday night practice, and preview the game on Saturday. Penn State practice update Last night, the Penn State football team held open practice to the media, and Blue White Illustrated was there to gather intel about the team. We'll discuss what we saw and heard from the Nittany Lions to start the show. Reporter Sean Fitz checked out the defensive side of the ball and wrote notes on his observations last night. He'll discuss some of those, plus you can see our offensive highlights from last night during the live show. Bye week and White Out PreviewWhile the recruiting lists to begin the season have been much better than expected, the team's recruiting intensity and importance are about to hit a fever pitch for the next few weeks. After the game against Villanova, Penn State enters its first bye week of the season. Typically on bye weeks, the coaching staff hits the road for a few days before coming back to Happy Valley to prepare for the next game. We'll preview how that process works, and what fans should expect from the next week in terms of recruiting news and visits. Is it too early to start talking about flip targets? Fitz will discuss how the process works. From there, the team hosts Oregon in the White Out for one of the most anticipated games at Beaver Stadium in quite some time. Over 60 recruits are already confirmed for the event and we'll do a quick preview of the players that stand out from the crowded list of high school stars. Villanova game preview Finally, the team still needs to win against Villanova on Saturday. Yet after two games that didn't feel as dominant as they might have, will Penn State surge past the Wildcats in the final non-conference game? We'll discuss the game and the areas where Penn State can grow and learn from the schematic tendencies that Villanova presents to them.

Penn State struggles to get into the end zone The Penn State offense put together 26 plays in its first three drives spanning the first and second quarters. That resulted in just seven points thanks to the team's decision to go for it on fourth down on the first and third drives, resulting in a turnover. While the team moved the ball, they once again struggled to hit big plays in the run or passing game. Allar underthrew a deep pass to Devonte Ross , which resulted in a pass interference call, and running back Nick Singleton had several big runs of ten-plus yards, but failed to convert several opportunities into explosive play touchdowns. Finally, Drew Allar hit Ross on a 42-yard touchdown pass into contested coverage. to put Penn State up by three scores. Defense pitches a shutout On the other side, the Penn State defense wasn't perfect, but they did pitch a shutout, allowing the offense time to grind out yards and touchdowns. Keyone Jenkins kept the team in the game with timely passing plays and conversions, including two fourth downs. Running back Kejon Owens also averaged over five yards per carry throughout the game, with a long of 21 yards. Freshman Chaz Coleman had another strong game, with three tackles, a pass breakup, a QB hit, and a tackle for a loss.

Penn State defense shows off its dominant streak Many openly wondered how the team would replace third-overall pick Abdul Carter on the defensive line. Not to be out-shined, senior Dani Dennis-Sutton domianted against the Nevada offensive line. Dennis-Sutton collected one sack, two tackles for loss a pass breakup, a QB hit and forced two fumbles in a dominant performance to start the year. Nevada was able to keep the game somewhat respectable through the first half, largely thanks to the legs of quarterback Chubba Purdy. Purdy rushed 14 times for 55 yards including an explosive run that resulted in a redzone trip and a field goal early. However, Penn State's stingy coverage unit gave up little through the air with Purdy staying under 100 yards passing until late in the fourth quarter when the second string entered the game. Offense plays efficient game Senior quarterback Drew Allar wasn't flashy, but he was ultra-efficient in his day under center. He finished 22-26 for 217 yards and a touchdown in the win. His 85% completion percentage was one of his career highs, and Allar looked calm under pressure, delivering a touchdown strike to Kyron Hudson while rolling to his right in the second quarter. Of course, the biggest development was the team's passing game going through its wide receivers in the team's win. Trebor Pena caught seven passes on eight targets for 74 yards, and former USC Trojan Kyron Hudson caught six passes for 89 yards and a touchdown on the day. Late in the game, backup quarterback Ethan Grunkemeyer shone on his fourth-quarter drive, going 4-6 with a beautiful strike to Khalil DInkins for 24 yards. He ended the drive with a six-yard touchdown scramble. BWI Postgame coverage Follow BWI's postgame coverage after the game.
