The Nittany Lions beat Marshall 45-0 in their season opener on Saturday.
The Nittany Lions took care of business in convincing fashion over the weekend against the Thundering Herd, something that can’t be said for now-No. 6 Oregon and Michigan.
The Ducks struggled against Boise State in a 34-27 win at home and Michigan; well, that’s a whole other conversation.
Other ranked Big Ten schools include No. 1 Ohio State, No. 5 Indiana, No. 14 USC, and No. 19 Washington. Penn State still has to face USC, Washington, and Michigan.
