BWI Mailbag
The Penn State offense is both too vanilla and too gimmicky. The defense is bend but don’t break but it’s also getting picked apart by quarterbacks in man coverage. Why is the fanbase dissatisfied with the performance of a 5-0 team heading into the game against USC? We will try to answer those questions in the BWI Mailbag.
We’ll also discuss the matchup in the trenches that seemingly favors the Nittany Lions this weekend. Will Penn State be able to get to USC quarterback Miller Moss with Zane Durant, Dani Dennis-Sutton, and Abdul Carter? Finally, what impact will Nolan Rucci potentially have starting at right tackle on the game? Join the show to find out!
