Penn State is one of the most overrated programs in the country. That's not to say they aren't a great team, but their MO is to beat the clealry inferior teams but fall apart when it comes to the ones that James Franklin is getting paid to beat, it's the same story of an incompetent offense and a defense that can't handle the added pressure. The 12 team playoff will be the minimum expectation for Penn State, but don't expect them to put up much of a run unless things drastically change.

Texas, Too Low, still not back, despite that last drive

LW: 10

Defense will definitely take a step back next year, but hopefully offense steps up

Another year...and 0-2 against the dastardly duo of Buckeyes and Wolverines. I know that James Franklin often gets disrespected from other people, especially those on the outside looking in, but honestly speaking, I would LOVE to have that sort of stability that he provides. Will it sting that you will NEVER win the two most important games you have on your schedule? Well...yeah, and I wouldn't blame Nittany Lion fans for feeling kinda bitter about that after it happens for many years. But come on, as a fan of programs known for having up and down seasons...wouldn't I NOT want to settle for frequent 10-win seasons and constant trips to NY6 bowls? Granted, this year's bowl game wasn't as fun as last year's...but still, my point stands!

-4

-3 (Best win is Iowa or WVU lol but I set top 14 before bowl season so they can't drop lower)

Has there been a team more overrated in the CFP era? Ohio State is at it's worst and it still can't get a win against them. James Franklin has been linked to Bama as well, but I don't think Bama wants a HC that is like 0 - 9 in big games (vs top 10 teams; that stat might actually be top 15 teams).

wouldn't pick the teams below them over them, wouldn't pick them over the teams above them

(10-3) - Penn State continues to fall in that region of clearly losing to good/great competition and clearly beating bad/okay competition.

Can't even beat your equal in the sec smh. But seriously, Franklin has desperately got to get over the hump. I don't think Penn St can go out and get a better coach than him, but at the same time his record in big games is starting to get indefensible. A whole new offense next year should show if Franklin's just been in a slump, or if it's a trait
