Penn State opens Big Ten play at home (must be a basketball thing only?) on Wednesday night against regular conference title contender Michigan State. The Nittany Lions are 6-2 and are rested, having been off their feet since a double overtime loss at Clemson last Tuesday.
The Nittany Lions would love to get a conference-opening win, especially with a trip to Champaign looming on Saturday.
