Penn State football already has a plan in place for its first marquee match-up of the season.
But could it actually spend its one iconic White Out so quickly?
It would feel abrupt, if not a bit odd, to use its White Out atmosphere on the Sept. 2 opener against West Virginia (7:30 p.m., NBC), considering all that's left in this Top 10 season. Especially when a hated College Football Playoff favorite will be coming to town two months later.
For sure, the Nittany Lions own a well-placed, manageable 2023 schedule for a team with so much hopeful firepower, one with such lofty expectations.
