After starting the season ranked No. 11, Penn State dropped to No. 14 after losing its season opener against then-No. 4 Duke. However, it has responded with back-to-back convincing wins last week against then-No. 23 Saint Louis and West Virginia which led to its rise in the rankings.
The Nittany Lions will continue their four-game homestand at 7:30 p.m. on Thursday, August 28, when they take on Santa Clara. They will close out their homestand at 6 p.m. on Sunday, August 31, when they face James Madison as part of their Senior Day.
