Penn State bye week practice and bye week to-do list

The Nittany Lions have their first of two bye weeks this weekend, so the weekly open practice is Tuesday evening instead of Wednesday. We’ll discuss what we’re expecting from the team during the off week and what sort of information we want to learn from the event.

Next, we’ll discuss what the team needs to accomplish this week with the team’s off time. Are there things they can rework with a few extra days before the next home game? What are the important things to accomplish with a bonus bye week? We’ll discuss those ideas and what other factors go into this week.

Bowling Green Review

Many of our conversations from today’s show will spill over into the BWI Mailbag, but we’ll discuss the highs and lows of Penn State’s 34-27 win over Bowling Green on Saturday. What did the team do well, and what caused the 24-point outburst in the first half? We’ll discuss the issues coming into the game and why we were so wrong about the team’s chances of playing young players and getting a blowout.
