This should be a 11 win season. Games against WVU and USC have me nervous when they really shouldn’t be games to be nervous about. There has been a lot of change this offseason and all you can do is trust they are taking the right steps but with this organization I have come to expect incompetence.
Agreed 👍!!! The offensive line, tight ends, running backs and Fleming and Tre Wallace are going to be good, if L. Clifford can be a possession type and K. Saunders and A. Evans step up, we will be very good!!! Defense is nasty good again, trust me Nittany nation!!! WE ARE
their schedule will be weak again. Starting the year they will only have 2, maybe 1 ranked team on their schedule. Ohio State & USC and USC is slated to be around 24/25th
Realistically, this team will be slightly worse than last year. Win against the patsies, lose against top 10 teams. The stats over the last 10 years are a trend that will likely continue. If you don't have any expectations for this team, then you won't be disappointed.
Schedule? We don't play Mich or tOSU on the road for the first time in decades! I'll take this years schedule. The old PAC schools are not very good. So, just win babay! Allar is not elite next year and not in top 3 B1G QB's.
Roster would tell you 11-1 but with Franklin terrible game management I think it’s 9-3 most likely. Losses to Ohio State and 2 bad road losses. They will not make the 12 team playoff. This should be the end for Franklin he has taken the program to another level but cannot get over that hump. Should be remembered as a coach that rebuilt this program but he obviously can not get it done in the big games.
_he has taken the program to another level_ Has he though? Compared with what years? The Bill O'Brien years? Or the team that beat Miami to win the National Championship?
10 wins is definitely doable for PSU in 24. Offense should be much better. Defense will again be excellent. Schedule will be tough.

If the O line steps up and stays healthy, could be 11-1
Agreed, offensive line is deep and coach Trout has done an amazing 👏 job!!!! WE ARE
Tyler Warren, A. Carter and K.J. Winston!!! As far as All-Americans!!!
Fleming was rated the second best blocker on the Ohio State team, including offensive lineman!!! Just saying!!! WE ARE
Rappleyea and Fleming blocking on the right side could be a bonanza for Singleton.

Penn State guy here: I am going 8-4. Home loss to OSU. Road losses to USC ( obvious), Wisconsin and in an upset: West Virginia.
Everyone on our schedule sucks besides Ohio St lol
Usc can’t fill a stadium
11-1, but even at worst 10-2!!! My prediction 11-1!!! Thanks 👍 WE ARE
Expectations? To win the NCAA championship
Agreed, as a die hard Nittany Lions 🦁 fan, are expectations should always be that!!!!
