Let's talk hoops, shall we? On this edition of the pod, Bill, Chad, Dan, and Eric recap Penn State's 6-1 start to the season, talk about what the team does well, and spend some time on the Nittany Lions' weaknesses on the year. Also, it's the hoops podcast, so they go off the rails a lot. It's fun. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Nick and Bill are back to recap the Nebraska blowout (yes, it was the blowout, the last 5 minutes of the game were meaningless).Listen to the guys figure out what conclusions they can draw from this weekend's win, as well as dive into some reader questions about Saquon Barkley, what next year's team will look like, Thanksgiving food, and more.Apologies for not posting a podcast previous to the Nebraska game, schedules didn't work out.

Penn State plays Rutgers this week. Unlike past games against the Scarlet Knights, this isn't a case of the Nittany Lions taking on a team that is really super bad. On today's episode of Roar Lions Radio, Bill and Matt explain why that is the case and how a game like this is good for Penn State. They also pick Big Ten games. It's a good time. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Welp! Bill, John, and Matt discussed Penn State's loss to Michigan State. They went long, so in the event you want to listen to three dudes talk about a Nittany Lion loss for more than an hour, set some time aside for this one. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

THE BAD NEWS: Nick is out tonight. THE GOOD NEWS: We got Chris Vannini from The Athletic to join Bill on this edition of the podcast. The two break down this year's Michigan State team, talk about how it went from last year's disaster of a season to where they are now, and discuss the game against Penn State. And of course, there are Big Ten picks and a whole lot of banter about the only thing in sports that matters, the Land Grant Trophy. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Welcome back to the Puck Podcast. Nick and Doug are joined (finally) by Kait Dividock to recap the Michigan series and look forward to Mercyhurst (with some general prediction revisions in between). It was fun! We hope you have fun listening to it. Because you're great. You deserve this. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The (basketball) boys are back in town, y'all. The hoops pod is back, and Bill, Chad, Dan, and Eric are all here to get you ready for the biggest Penn State basketball season in some time. The group breaks down the roster, the schedule, the Big Ten, and tries to figure out what the expectations are for the team this season. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Well, that was unfortunate. On today's episode of Roar Lions Radio, Bill is joined by Mike and Noel to discuss that game. They talk about how Penn State lost, asked what we learned, and talked about the Nittany Lion season going forward. The important thing to remember is that while the loss hurt, everything is ok and we love all of you. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

It's finally here. Penn State football takes on Ohio State this weekend, and to learn more about the Buckeyes, we reached out to our pals at Eleven Warriors and got some help from Kevin Harrish. He breaks down what the Buckeyes do well and where they can be beaten, then the gang talks about this game and gives some predictions. And of course, there is Big Ten talk, which involves laughing at Michigan. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Nick and Doug are back to discuss the slowish start to the season for Penn State hockey, take a look at the Michigan series, and discuss the most important topic of all- whether or not North Dakotans tweet at 13-year old recruits. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

So that was fun! On today's episode of Roar Lions Radio, Bill and Nick talk about Penn State's thorough beatdown of the Michigan Wolverines. Neither of them saw this coming, just like no one else really saw this coming, either. They also briefly touch on how they feel heading into Columbus after this one, and of course, talk about an abysmal weekend in Big Ten football. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Our good friend Ty Hildenbrandt from the Solid Verbal is back to join Nick in talking about a few different things. First, the two discuss Penn State's season to this point (whether things have gone according to plan, etc.). Then, they look closely at the Michigan game to figure out what each team has to do to win. Finally, they play an intense round of the Real PennLive Comment Or Not? game, in which they are joined by a VERY special guest to kick things off. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Another week, another Penn State win. On this week's edition of Roar Lions Radio, Bill and Nick (who had some sound problems, sorry about that) discuss the Nittany Lions' latest 1-0 week. They also touch on the offensive line through six games, along with the Penn State defense, which is t e r r i f y i n g. Oh, and there's some Big Ten talk in here, too, including some chatter about how Michigan lost. Did you know Michigan lost? Because Michigan lost. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

It's Northwestern week, which is like every other week, only Penn State football plays Northwestern. This week, we got Ben Goren of Mid Major Madness to discuss the Wildcats. Once he splits, Bill and Nick discuss the game a little and then break down this week's Big Ten slate, which is kinda bad, but whatever. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

All of us watch Penn State football from the hyper-focused fan perspective. On this edition of Roar Lions Radio, we went to one of the sport's best writers when it comes to breaking down the game by the numbers. Bill is joined by Bill Connelly of SB Nation to discuss the 2017 Nittany Lions through five games from his perspective, giving insight into how this year's Penn State squad is different from last year's Big Ten championship-winning team. Plus we talked about the "quarterback controversy," which Bill thinks is very silly, and Saquon Barkley, who is very good. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Penn State beat Indiana this week. It was very good. On this edition of Roar Lions Radio, Bill and Nick talk about the win, what they learned, and how Saquon Barkley may be immortal. They also touched on the debate that's currently going on among some Penn State fans about Trace McSorley and why the whole thing is extremely stupid. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Hey, Penn State has a football game this week. That's cool. It's against the Indiana Hoosiers, so on this edition of Roar Lions Radio, Bill and Matt got a special guest: Kyle Swick of the site Crimson Quarry. Kyle walks us through the 2017 Hoosiers, we break down the game, and talk extremely briefly about Greg Schiano being honored this week by Rutgers. Also this podcast starts and ends with silliness — we start by discussing the FBI blowing up college hoops really quickly, and we end by looking at this week's absolutely dreadful college football slate. You can skip both if you want that's fine, we'll still love you. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The puck podcast returns for its second season. For the first episode of season two, Nick and Doug are joined by the president and vice president of the Roar Zone, the best student section in college hockey, to talk about how they got to where they are now. Then, all four of them talk about the preseason hype (or lack thereof) for Penn State and some names to watch heading into the season. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Saquon Barkley. Now that that's out of the way, Penn State won a thriller in Iowa City on Saturday night. Bill and Nick tried to talk about it to the best of their abilities as Penn State football yodelers. Also, the Saquon Barkley talk begins around the half hour mark. We promise it's worth listening to everything else before that, though. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Let's talk Iowa. Penn State travels to Kinnick Stadium this week to take on the Iowa Hawkeyes. In years past, this game would be terrible. This year? Who knows! Bill and Nick talk to Patrick Vint of our sister site, Go Iowa Awesome, to break down everything you need to know in this game. Then, Vint has to leave because "he's a dad" or something, so the RLR guys try to pick games while Nick prepares dinner. (UPDATE: We were told that the pod ended with ultra loud static and then 12 minutes of dead air. Zero idea what happened, so we replaced the audio file in Soundcloud and are extremely sorry.) Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Hey good news: Penn State went 1-0 this week. The Nittany Lions housed Georgia State to wrap up non-conference play, so Bill and Nick looked back on the game, along with the entire non-con. The duo then discuss recruiting for a little before diving into the week in Big Ten play. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Ok we'll be honest, we don't know much about Georgia State. Having said that, Bill and Nick did a podcast about Penn State's upcoming game against the Panthers. The guys discuss what they want to see out of the Nittany Lions this week and get Nick's thoughts on last week's win against Pitt. And of course, they pick Big Ten games, because it's a dang preview podcast. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Penn State beat Pitt. Penn State beat Pitt. Penn State beat Pitt. Penn State beat Pitt. Penn State beat Pitt. On today's episode of Roar Lions Radio, Bill and Matt discuss it, and revel in the fact that the score was so one-sided despite the fact that the game could best be described as "really weird." Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Welp, it's Pitt week. Bill and Nick did a podcast-type thing in which they discussed whether or not this is a rivalry, and why it's ok that Penn State's players are downplaying this as just another week. Then, the pair break down the game, predict that the Nittany Lions will win by A Lot Of Points™, and get ready for the week in Big Ten action. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Penn State went 1-0 this week, as the Nittany Lions whooped up on Akron, 52-0. On this edition of Roar Lions Radio, Bill and Nick spend some time discussing the win. What did they learn? Were any major questions answered? How good is the offensive line? Once that's all out of the way, the duo talk about what happened this week in the Big Ten. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Folks, the 2017 college football season is officially here. On this edition of Roar Lions Radio, Bill, Nick, and Kevin discuss the dark, cold offseason and what they expect from Penn State in 2017. Then, the trio briefly break down the Nittany Lions' season opener against Akron before running through this week's Big Ten slate. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The 2017 football season is right around the corner. To celebrate, Bill and Matt spoke to Matt Brown about every team in the Big Ten this season. They spent too much time on the bad Big Ten West squads. Sorry about that. Anyway, go to Sports on Earth or @MattBrownCFB and read everything Matt does, he's very good. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Nick and Bill are back to discuss James Franklin's contract extension, as well as who they would steal from another Big Ten program to add to Penn State's 2017 team. They also talk about expectations for this year's squad, and how most people seem to be staying realistic. Which is good! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

On today's episode of the podcast, Bill and Matt learned some more about two of Penn State's mid-season opponents: Indiana and Northwestern. First, the dudes are joined by Kyle Swick of Crimson Quarry, who explains why Indiana may no longer be *~CHAOS TEAM~*. After he splits, noted Northwestern graduate and Mid-Major Madness writer Ben Goren swings on in to discuss a Wildcat team that probably won't win the Big Ten West this year, but certainly has a shot. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Hello. How are you? Hopefully you are in the mood for a podcast because we've got a long one for ya today. First, Bill and Nick are joined by Robby Kalland of UPROXX Sports to discuss Georgia State and figure out what position WWE superstar Braun Strowman would play on the football field. Robby splits, Bill and Nick answer some reader questions, and once that's over, Patrick Vint of Go Iowa Awesome comes on to tell us all about the time Hayden Fry tried to recruit him when he was in his 30s.

We haven't done a football podcast in a while. Let's change that. On today's episode, Bill, Chris, and Nick try their hardest to have an opinion on the Blue-White Game, discuss Penn State's eventful recruiting weekend, and take mailbag questions.

This is so dumb.
