redrumsoxLoL 8 Penn st gets started in conference this weekend with a big match up against Illinois. I am excited to see how the expanded playoffs can change this team's fate. Close to rank with Utah but I have been more impressed with the QB play at Penn St and Utah's Cam Rising has been an unknown so far this season.

Due_Connection179 11 Last Week #12 vs Kent State // Won 56 - 0 // Went as expected. For those wondering why I'm not having them jump Mizzou or Utah, that's because every season I get hype about Penn State, just for them to not beat a top 25 team. So I'm going to wait until they play and beat at least USC to have them jump anyone who doesn't lose.

GatorBolt 11 Well, they did what I should expect against Kent State. A ranked Illinois team coming to Happy Valley will better gauge where the Lions are at though.

throwaway_6786 9 A relatively ho-hum win over possibly the worst FBS team this year. Up next is Luke Altmyer and the Fighting Illini, who should present an interesting challenge to a Penn State team that's still trying to get their defensive front in order. Had WVU lost, Penn State would've been below Miami and possibly Mizzou as well.
