The Penn State offense played coy with most of its playbook during the Blue-White Game this past Saturday. But that doesn't mean we didn't catch glimpses of what is in store for the fall in what they did show. One aspect of the offense was its dynamic versatility to get the football to different players.  "Well, I think like you saw today, a bunch of guys touched the ball and made plays. We were able to distribute the football around," Head coach James Frankin said when speaking about the team's receivers.  However, the best way to look at the offense is through redshirt freshman Andrew Rappleyea. The tight end position is critical to any offense, but it was especially interesting during the Blue-White Game. We're breaking down Rappleyea's performance in T-Frank's Film Room.
