Penn State-Michigan: Is James Franklin feeling the pressure? Has bad Big Ten hurt Nittany Lions?
On their weekly Penn State podcast, host Adam Bittner and Post-Gazette Nittany Lions insider Seth Engle discuss the hot topics ahead of a pivotal game against Michigan on Saturday at Beaver Stadium. Were coach James Franklin's frustrations after this past week's win against Maryland fair? How badly has the Big Ten struggles this season hurt his team in terms of perception? And is the coach possibly letting the pressure get to him a little bit ahead of a huge matchup? Our duo tackles those questions and breaks down the game itself. How does Drew Allar matchup with the Wolverines' J.J. McCarthy? Will the Penn State defense do a better job of slowing Blake Corum, Donovan Edwards and the Michigan running game that dominated in last season's showdown? And were the signs of offensive life against Maryland relevant when facing an elite defense like Michigan's?
