CallingUagoatUgoat 18 16.0 pts. 0 SP+ T-10 or T-25 wins. 2 SP+ T-10 losses (Ohio State, Michigan). Poor James Franklin.
ColombianInIowa24 18 Big game Franklin! Up next Rutgers. Notable wins: #23 Iowa.
CriterionCrypt 18 Penn State is the least predictable program in the country. They will beat every team they are supposed to beat and they will lose to every team that is supposed to beat them. Their inability to win games against ranked opponents tells me that they aren't quite ready for the big time.
