We are just a few days away from the Taxslayer Bowl matchup against Georgia and the anticipation is building for the Nittany Lions and their fans. This will be the last game for a handful of seniors who have meant a lot to this program. This could also be the last game for defensive tackle Austin Johnson and quarterback Christian Hackenberg. Both have decisions to make on their future, but for now both are focused on the bowl game.
With the extra time off, defensive end Carl Nassib is healthy and ready for his last collegiate game. The only major change to the depth chart from the end of the regular season is Gregg Garrity taking over the punt returning duties.
