Penn State Football: James Franklin Big Ten Championship Week Press Conference Recap

Penn State’s season isn’t quite over yet. With an eight-game winning streak, the Nittany Lions earned a berth in this weekend’s Big Ten Championship game. However, before looking ahead, head coach James Franklin addressed his teams performance last Saturday against Michigan State.

“To talk about Michigan State a little bit, obviously a great team win. The thing I’m probably most proud of is this team’s focus overall, their discipline, and our chemistry,” Franklin said.

He also talked about the explosiveness of the offense after putting up 45 yards and 463 yards of total offense. On defense, Franklin stated a key in the game was limiting the Spartans to field goals early down in the red zone.
