While it’s still entirely too early to think about rankings for the 2019 season, it’s becoming clear where the national pundits see Penn State heading into next season. Athlon pegged the Nittany Lions at #13 in its “Way Too Early” 2019 rankings. Now Sporting News has followed suit to place Penn State at #12 heading into the fall.
Per Sporting News:
Tommy Stevens will take over at quarterback, and he’ll have an explosive talent to throw to in KJ Hamler. Edge rusher Micah Parsons could have a breakout season, too.
