It’s been perhaps the wackiest college football offseason in memory, but come hell or high water, the season has arrived. This coming Saturday, Penn State will kickoff its season against Indiana, so with that being the case, it’s time that the BSD Staff puts out our season predictions.

Pre-COVID I was extremely bullish on this team. They were slated to be the most talented that James Franklin has had in Happy Valley and probably the most talented team Penn State has had since 1994. Throw in getting Ohio State at home, a very manageable cross over schedule, the offense having spring ball and an entire off-season to get humming with new offensive coordinator Kirk Ciarrocca, and a defense being led by Heisman candidate and the best defensive player in college football in Micah Parsons, and I truly believed the Nittany Lions were going to go 12-1, win the Big Ten and reach the College Football Playoff.
