There are all sorts of angles to dive into when you want to talk about this Saturday’s college football rivalry game between Penn State and Pittsburgh. On one side, the Nittany Lions are looking to prove that last weekend’s pitiful fourth-quarter defensive performance was a fluke. They’re also in search of a road win in Pittsburgh that slipped through their fingers when Trace McSorley through a late interception in 2016.
The Panthers are a very different team than the one that Penn State handled a year ago. New quarterback Kenny PIckett already has an upset victory over Miami as a feather in his cap from last year, so the offense should be much more effective than when Max Browne and Ben DiNucci were under center.
