In case you haven’t noticed, Penn State is once again not very good at basketball. In fact, the Lions are currently winless in the Big Ten, having most recently lost to Minnesota. The hope for the 2018-2019 season was that the NIT championship from last season would springboard the team, potentially to a tournament berth.
Instead, it’s been a myriad of close losses, punctuated by the occasional blowout. It doesn’t help that five of the conference games have been against ranked opponents, but still. Sitting at 7-12 (0-8 Big Ten), Penn State finds itself in sole possession of last place in the conference.
