Penn State Football: linebackers carry lots of uncertainty

Koa Farmer went from the new guy to the seasoned vet when the final second of the Fiesta Bowl ticked off the clock. The Nittany Lions might own the moniker “Linebacker-U” but this group will need some fast-progressing players to keep that alive next fall. Luckily, Penn State football carries some of the most talented young linebackers in the country.

To start off, Farmer leads all teams in experience and will start at strong side linebacker like he did this year. He started 11 games and recorded 47 tackles and 5.5 for loss, bringing his career total to 76 stops and 10 for loss.
