How to watch Penn State football opposite Rutgers: Time, channel, streaming info, and more
Penn State welcomes Rutgers to Beaver Stadium on Saturday. While it may feel like the 2023 season just started, the Nittany Lions are set for their penultimate regular season game and final home contest. Senior Day festivities will be held before kickoff. The list of participants has not yet been released. The Scarlet Knights are in the midst of a two-game losing streak while head coach James Franklin’s offense will operate without coordinator Mike Yurcich for the first time in nearly three seasons after he was fired back on Sunday. Ja’Juan Seider and Ty Howle are sharing the team’s interim offensive coordinator duties.
“They are all good coaches,” Rutgers coach Greg Schiano said Monday. They will have a great plan put together, I’m sure. You know, when you look at their personnel, that’s what I know. They have got two elite running backs, really, really good running backs, a very good offensive line with an elite tackle. They have two or three depending on who is judging, I think, great tight ends. A young quarterback who is as acclaimed as they come and receivers that are definitely on the up.
“So yeah, they are a very complete football team. I’ve said it, I think they have a lot of pieces in place there.”
