Auburn football fans wanted it, and Auburn football fans are getting it. The Tigers’ trip to Happy Valley on September 18 will be celebrated with one of Penn State’s infamous whiteouts. Penn State’s football Twitter account announced the Nittany Lions’ game day themes just this morning, and Auburn officially beat out Michigan for the spot.
Typically assigned to the Nittany Lions’ toughest home opponent of the season, the whiteout makes for a crazy environment in Happy Valley, especially because it will be the first one since prior to the pandemic.
