On3 Shows RESPECT to Matt Campbell?! Where Penn State Ranks Among Big Ten's Best!
Description
Penn State football is already becoming one of the most debated teams in the Big Ten under Matt Campbell, and Ari Wasserman’s latest On3 Big Ten power rankings put the Nittany Lions at No. 5 behind Oregon, Ohio State, Indiana, and USC.
On this Locked On crossover, Zach Seyko, Spencer McLaughlin, and Jacob Goins debate Penn State’s place in the Big Ten, Oregon vs. Indiana at the top of the conference, Josh Hoover, Dante Moore, Bryant Haines, the Penn State schedule, the Washington road trip, and whether Matt Campbell’s Iowa State-heavy roster build can translate in the Big Ten.
The guys also break down the NCAA’s new five-year eligibility model, what it means for redshirts, how it changes roster management, and why the proposed 10-day transfer portal window could create even more pressure for college football coaches.
Is Penn State really the Big Ten’s No. 5 team, or is this ranking more about the schedule than the roster? Drop your thoughts in the comments.
