The Penn State Nittany Lions football team fell to Oregon 30-24 on Saturday in front a sold-out Beaver Stadium. Emotions were high in the White Out, and the fallout of another big game loss is fueling the deepening frustration between a growing section of the fanbase and its team. Today on the BWI Live Show, we’ll talk about the game, Penn State head coach James Franklin’s comments on Monday about the loss, and, of course, your questions. Got frustrations you want to vent? We’ll take questions from the live chat and discuss them on today’s show.

Penn State vs Oregon recap

Most of today’s show, as it has for the first month of the season, will deal with the Penn State offense. This time, we’re recapping the team’s loss to Oregon and spending most of the show’s first half discussing the three points and 109 yards the team gained before the fourth quarter. What’s wrong with that side of the ball? We’ll give our thoughts on what happened and where the blame should fall after the loss.

Of course, some fans are unhappy with the 400+yards the defense gave up on Saturday, despite holding Oregon to just three points through halftime and 17 points through regulation. We’ll discuss how the defense performed and what they need to do to play a stingier brand of football.

Between the Lines

After we give our reaction to the game, we’ll turn our attention to Franklin’s comments during his Monday press conference. How does the team bounce back and make adjustments? How hard are those adjustments to make? We’ll share Franklin’s thoughts with you and then provide an interpretation of his words.

Fitz’s recruiting update

Finally, we’ll give a quick recap of the recruiting news from this past weekend. Over 100 recruits attended the game and experienced one of the best atmospheres in college football. How did the overall presentation and game go over with the team’s top targets? We’ll discuss that in Fitz’s Recruiting Update.
