Believe ‘when do the lots open’ was an annual thread/question before either (or both) the Blue White Game/first game of the year on the old board. So, it has been memified/board tradition ever since.

Someone can correct me if I’m mistaken….

1. Interior DL
2. Inside LBs/overall LB depth.
3. Safety.

I think the o-line and the offense will be really good. I am worried about the QB, but he didn’t play last year so you have to live with whatever you get from him this year.

My biggest concern going into a season is always the same. Will Franklin and his coaching staff have this team prepared for every game, every down. When Franklin's teams have failed it mostly has come down to preparation and coaching.

PSU certainly wasn't prepared for UM last year but I think the team has usually been prepared for big games.

My concern is how the team has been able to execute late in games. Two blown 4th qtr leads to OSU losing by 1 pt both times. Blown 3 score lead in 4th qtr vs USC. DB falls down giving UM a late victory.

I remember a last second loss to MD where PSU could have won by converting a 4th and short but instead we punted to midfield where MD only needed one 1st down to win with a last second FG. Or the Indiana game we would have won by taking a knee. Instead we score but lose in OT.

We've certainly had some questionable play calling and execution late in games. Let's hope the staff and players have grown past that.
