In a season marked by upheaval in college football, Penn State's predictable loss to Ohio State serves as a stark reminder of the traditional rivalry's persistence. The Nittany Lions started strong, even leading early, but ultimately faltered, as they failed to convert scoring chances into points, confirming their struggles in high-pressure situations against top-tier rivals. Head coach James Franklin's underwhelming record against Ohio State raises concerns about the team's potential postseason performance despite their favorable standing.
Despite their recent setback against Ohio State, Penn State remains in a strong position with a record of 7-1. Their previous wins against formidable opponents like West Virginia, USC, and Wisconsin keep their hopes for the College Football Playoff alive. If they can secure victory in their final four games, they stand a good chance of hosting a first-round game. However, the constant shadow of their coach's poor postseason performance against ranked teams looms over their aspirations.
