It’s time for the White Out, folks!

Although Penn State football has had tough losses in the last two weeks, the 2026 edition of the White Out gives the Nittany Lions a unique chance to get back in the win column.

White Out week has given students nothing but great weather and sunshine. What better way to celebrate the Penn State community than tailgating together all day and watching The Greatest Show in College Sports?

Put on your white, buckle up, and get drinking.

Here’s your official Penn State-USC drinking game:

• It’s a 7:30 kickoff! Put on comfy clothes for a long day, and get a drink in your hand!
• If you hate that it’s colder outside and the sun is setting earlier, take a shot. Nobody wants to be cold by halftime.
• If you think this White Out will be electric, take a sip.
  • If you don’t, what’s wrong with you? Shotgun.
• If you see someone wearing blue, take a shot.
• Any time the announcers bring up Koby Howard’s injury, take a sip. We all miss him.
• If Penn State gets an interception, finish your drink.
• Every time USC calls a timeout, take a sip. Travelers can’t handle the noise.
• If Penn State is winning before halftime, take a sip.
• If USC is dominating the game, walk away with disappointment and take a sip of water.
• During halftime, drink water. Hydration is important!
• If Rocco Becht completes a deep pass, start a line… dance. We don’t need to be on TV anymore.
• If you think the Penn State defense will carry the game, take a shot.
• The Northwestern game gets brought up? Take a sip of water. We get it.
• Cheers if Penn State gets a sack!
• Take a sip every time you hear “Mo Bamba.”
• If you love the atmosphere, take a shot. Nothing beats a Penn State White Out!
• If Penn State wins, drink the night away!
• If the Nittany Lions blow another big lead and USC wins, go home and go to bed.

As always, drink responsibly, have fun, and drink water. Have a memorable White Out in Happy Valley, folks!
