Description

Can Penn State's offense keep up with its dominant defense? This week, Hack and Cabinda go in-depth on what’s working, what’s not, and what to expect from the Nittany Lions this season. From the stellar defensive performances under Jim Knowles to questions surrounding Drew Allar and the offensive play-calling, we dive into the big picture and discuss the keys to success for Penn State football moving forward.


Here’s what to expect:

- How the defense continues to dominate with explosive turnovers and lockdown DBs.

- The offense’s struggle to establish a consistent identity and push the ball vertically.

- Drew Allar's growth, strengths, and the question of his ceiling as a QB.

- The balance between Nick Singleton and Kaytron Allen in the run game.

- Broader college football trends, NIL’s impact, and the changing nature of team chemistry.

- What Penn State needs to refine during the bye week to prepare for the season’s biggest tests.
