Please this thread for all pre-game, in-game, and post-game discussion of the 2026 Penn State - Temple game.

I’ll be attending the game, and cell service/WiFi is pretty spotty at the Linc, so my contributions to the thread will be rather limited.

We Are …

confident that we’ll have a different winner than the last time PSU football played in Philadelphia.

… Penn State!!!

The number of players with a history of significant injuries is my #1 concern with his team.

I’m interested to see with the noon kickoff whether the team starts flat. I’ll be impressed if they aren’t since it’s something we’ve seen over the years except for the noon road game when the Iron Lion took matters into his own hands and almost got crushed by Mauti.

I’m in Sulmona, Italy so I will have to follow the game thread for updates.

Good lord. Huge opening play + PF yardage and you then stink inside the 10.

I’m quickly becoming a non-fan of Hansen .. he doesn’t really bring much to the table. Had an opening, didn’t take it, danced around and then weakly ran for a couple … coulda been an easy TD with a reasonable RB with a burst. Becht then brain farts and we can’t get anyone open twice. And we miss a chippie.

I cringe every time Rojas makes a play asking “is he gonna get up limping!?!”

The Hansen "hate" on this board is just comical

Hopefully at some point he does something to stop it.
He's been fine--he was the most productive RB week 1--easily--and that's before we even discuss his ability in pass pro. People just want Martin to be the back.

No, people want anyone who can break a run.

You're all just wrong--it's honestly hysterical but I'm used to that around here

Out of the people complaining about Hansen (after 13 carries while being our leading rusher with our best YPC) who wants Martin to be the primary back?

Cannot watch the game, but last week I stated that I was not impressed by Hansen.

I'm thinking yes, but 13 just made a big play.
