Penn State will play its first postseason game in 2024 on Saturday. The No. 3 Nittany Lions (11-1) meet No. 1 Oregon (12-0) in the Big Ten title game. Both teams will be returning to Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis for the first time since they gathered there for media days back in July with hopes of returning there in December.

“I felt really good about it, glad we were able to go see it, feel it, smell it, the whole nine,” Oregon quarterback Dillon Gabriel said about his preseason prediction that the Ducks would return to Indy. “Now that we’re going back with the whole squad, everyone is excited for it. Everyone is juiced up and ready to go. Execution, playing clean, being who we are, that all goes into us getting back there.”

Nittany Lions defensive tackle Dvon J-Thomas offered a similar prediction that he and his teammates also followed through on.

“I said it when we were at Big Ten [Media Days] that we were going to be back, and here we are,” he said Monday. “It’s such a surreal feeling. We are honored to be back here with the opportunity that’s in front of us. We’re thankful and honored to be in this position. The season goes by so fast. We’re so elated.”

Penn State-Oregon Big Ten title game time and details

Penn State is 3-1 all-time against Oregon. This is the first meeting between the schools as Big Ten peers. The Nittany Lions beat the Ducks 38-20 in their last meeting, which was in the Rose Bowl to end the 1994 season. The schools split a home-and-home series during the 1963-1964 seasons with each winning on the road. Penn State won the first matchup between the two schools with a 41-12 triumph at the Liberty Bowl in Philadelphia back in 1960.
