Show Notes

A week after what host Donnie Collins believes was the most impressive home atmosphere in the history of the annual White Out game against Minnesota, the Penn Stated podcast is honoring the spirit of the paying customer with a fan-centered episode heading into the No. 13 Nittany Lions' clash with No. 2 Ohio State on Saturday.

Donnie recaps the Minnesota game, predicts the winner of the battle with the Buckeyes, and with the help of a local Nittany Lions fan, attempts to discuss the themes of a season the fans haven't always found satisfying.

Why are a certain segment of fans still not sold on James Franklin?

Why isn't backup quarterback Drew Allar playing more?

Are fans simply bored with starting QB Sean Clifford?

And why do so many look at the Ohio State game as the biggest litmus test for where Franklin's program is?

All that and more on a special episode of Penn Stated.
