Penn State has beaten three top-15 teams in the 2026 season and is riding a hot streak into a tough Big Ten stretch.

Following the loss against North Carolina, the Nittany Lions turn their attention to Maryland. Penn State has two wins against ranked opponents on the season and will look to add to that list.

Penn State has knocked off two top-ten-ranked teams in only six games. The downside is they have also dropped two losses to unranked teams. They eye their third top-ten matchup this weekend in Charlotte.

Homecoming for Brisker in the league.

The Nittany Lions will host Cornell for the first time since losing to the Big Red in the national semifinals a season ago.

Penn State was ranked No. 15 last week.
