After the bye week, Penn Stated podcast hosts Donnie Collins (Scranton Times-Tribune) and Sam Fremin (Citizens Voice) return with plenty to discuss as the No. 6 Nittany Lions host UMass on Saturday.
Most of it, they freely admit, is absolute nonsense.
Head coach James Franklin's comments on nonconference scheduling made quite a national stir this week - centered in especially sensitive Michigan, as usual - but Donnie and Sam discuss whether it's much ado about nothing, the sign of things to come that might not be the best thing for college football, or both.
Of course, since everyone is talking about it, they discuss how a badly worded question at a press conference can still be a good question about what the future might hold for Penn State's offense. Even if it makes Franklin's skin curl.
And, they spend the second segment bantering about their own hot takes on Penn State, the Big Ten and the college football world.
Does Sam think James Franklin can ever win a national championship?
What does Donnie think is the worst division in major college football?
And, is college football as a whole really going down a path that's better than the one that hardly ever provided the nation with a definitive champion?
All that and more on this week's Penn Stated.
