As you all know by now, Penn State lost its top two running backs, Akeel Lynch and Saquon Barkley, to injury in the 37-21 victory over San Diego State. While Coach Franklin has said neither of them will be out for the rest of the season, even though that was never a worry with Barkley, it is almost a guarantee Lynch will not play this Saturday against Army. Barkley’s status is still unknown. Honestly, with how severe his knee injury looked I do not expect to see Lynch again any time soon. This leaves the Nittany Lions somewhat scrambling at running back.
