Penn State can pick up where it left off last season, covering in its last seven outings. The Nittany Lions send out a defense loaded with potential future NFL-ers and roll out new QB Drew Allar, a former five-star recruit who is built as if he were the latest product at Linebacker U. Allar breaks in against a defense that was dismal against the pass a season ago and surrounded by experienced sidekicks who should make up for fist-game jitters.

My top Penn State angle is the massive offensive line returning four starters – three seniors – and the running back duo of sophomores Nick Singleton and Kaytron Allen. They’re going to make it easy for sophomore QB Drew Allar to just play QB and not have to be a star yet. I think the West Virginia front six on defense gets bullied all game and the number is cheap by 4-points. I laid the points with Penn State.
