Penn State and Michigan announced Sunday morning that this coming weekend's Big Ten opener will kickoff at 3:30 p.m. from the Big House on ABC.

Penn State's second-string linebackers -- Brandon Smith, Jake Cooper, and Manny Bowen -- came up huge for the Nittany Lion defense after it lost all three starters against Temple.

James Franklin's Nittany Lions outlasted the Owls in a nervy Stripe Out at Beaver Stadium that saw them buckle down late for a close 34-27 victory.

Jason Cabinda will miss his second straight game with an unspecified arm injury. Brandon Bell, who left last week's game late in the second half, is sidelined as well with an apparent lower body injury.

James Franklin's Nittany Lions hope to get back on track against Temple at noon in Beaver Stadium for their second-annual "Stripe Out." The game will air on Big Ten Network.
