I have to say I like the way the schedule is setting up... from the standpoint of getting Drew Allar (and the team in general) ready for a tough Ohio State game IN Columbus. Starting off with 2 manageable games at home in WVU and Delaware... Then the first Conference AWAY game on the road at Illinois... a good offense, but questionable defense... THEN possibly one of the better defenses in the country, but a questionable though improving offense, with B10 conference rival Iowa at home... Coming out of that stretch, Drew Allar (and the team) should have seen a little bit of everything... Good Offenses, Good defenses, Home games, Away games...
Then Penn State will have a couple games (in Northwestern and UMass) where they SHOULD be able to use as "Preparation" games... to work on issues of concern... leading up to the Ohio State game... AND, if everything works out, we should be 6-0, healthy, condident, and READY to play OSU... with possibly 7 years of PAYBACK, not to mention a Program changing game, hinging on the outcome of the game !! Ohio State will be the BEST team they will have seen, and a good test, BUT, they should be READY for the challenge...
Fingers crossed !!
