Happy gameday, folks!

No. 2 Penn State football is back in Beaver Stadium for its week two clash against the FIU Panthers. The Nittany Lions come off a season-opening thrashing of Nevada in week one as they look to build towards a more cohesive offensive performance and further evaluate position depth.

Here’s everything you need to know for today’s game as Penn State and FIU meet for the second time in history.
