How to watch the 2024 Penn State Blue-White game: Time, channel, streaming info, and more
The 2024 Penn State Blue-White game is nearly here. Head coach James Franklin will preside over his 11th scrimmage at Beaver Stadium. While the Lions are hoping to have as close to an actual game as possible during the intrasquad scrimmage, the format, including scoring and timing rules, plus the Team Blue and Team White roster, have usually been finalized and released to the public on Friday before the game.
“I’m just kind of breaking it up, trying to make it as competitive as possible,” Franklin said of the rosters on Tuesday. “So strategically, putting guys on both teams, [so that] the game has a chance to be competitive. Guys that we would probably consider starters, say, like the way we rotate D-tackles. There are usually at least four D-tackles that are, in our mind, starters. Those guys are broken up [on opposite teams]. Same thing with the corners and so on and so forth. So, trying to kind of divvy it up so that you got guys that you feel like you can play in Big Ten games on either side of the ball and on either sideline [for the scrimmage].”
Here’s how to follow along Saturday if you can’t make it to Beaver Stadium.
