Penn State has wrapped up the non-conference portion of its schedule, and while things started a bit bumpier than expected, the Nittany Lions took care of business and won all four games. Up next is the first Big Ten game of the year, and with it comes a unique scheduling situation.
As part of a new scheduling practice enacted by the Big Ten Conference last week, Friday night games have been added to the schedule. Penn State will get its first opportunity this week to play on Friday night.
Kickoff between the Nittany Lions and Fighting Illini in Champaign is set to kick off at 9:00 p.
