I’d be lying if I told you I don’t feel extremely optimistic about the Penn State Nittany Lions at the moment. Even better than I did at this point last year. Shoot, even better than I did when the team rolled into Kinnick as the #4 team in the country. And that mostly has to do with what I perceive to be the team’s mindset.
Penn State is no stranger to success on the field. The last 2 seasons notwithstanding, Penn State has had an excellent go of things in the last 6 years. Big Ten Championship, three New Year’s Six bowl appearances and two wins, improvements to facilities, fantastic recruiting.
