Show Notes
On his daily First 10 podcast, Post-Gazette sports columnist Jason Mackey previews the Fiesta Bowl between Penn State and Boise State with a spot in the College Football Playoff semifinals on the line. Is Nittany Lions coach James Franklin right about the state of the sport and his call for Alabama Crimson Tide legend Nick Saban to be commissioner? Does Penn State's old-school approach of relying on home-grown talent like Drew Allar, Tyler Warren, Abdul Carter, Nick Singleton and Kaytron Allen make it an easy program to root for in this transfer portal era? And what will the Lions need to do to beat Ashton Jeanty and the Broncos?
Jason tackles those questions, checks in on former Steelers great WR Hines Ward at Arizona State and wonders if new Pitt AD is asking tough questions about coach Pat Narduzzi after a frustrating bowl loss to Toledo.
