Penn State’s football season looks electric, with ESPN analytics showing them favorites in 10 of 12 games—setting up a dominant campaign. The real tests? Road trips to Michigan (33.8% win chance) and Washington (48.7%), but even those are manageable. Their biggest home game? A whiteout showdown against USC, where they’re favored at 63.4%. From Week 1’s near-lockdown wins over Marshall (95%) and Buffalo (96%) to the strong home tilt against Wisconsin (80%), the Nittany Lions are primed for a historic season—with only two games truly hanging in the balance.

Penn State is reviving Joe Paterno’s legacy with a new exhibit at Beaver Stadium, nearly 15 years after removing his statue amid fallout from the Jerry Sandusky scandal. The “Paterno Family Football Experience Room” will showcase his desk, trophies, and personal memorabilia as part of the All-Sports Museum, framed by athletic director Pat Kraft as a tribute to the program’s history — even as it reignites debate over honoring a figure tied to a dark chapter in school history.
