We’ll discuss the game by breaking down the tale of the tape between Oregon and Penn State’s defensive units, and discuss the top prospect names you need to know who are coming to the game this weekend.

Penn State White Out game atmosphere and recruiting list

The team hosts more than 140 prospects this weekend for the White Out and reporter Ryan Snyder has spent the last month collecting the important names of prospects who are joining the team for the game. We’ll highlight the list overall, and break it out into different sections.

Snyder wrote several articles about the players coming to campus this weekend, including the players for whom Penn State is truly a contender and those who are coming but are pretenders in the race for a spot with the Nittany Lions. We’ll also highlight the underrated prospects you should pay attention to this weekend for the Class of 2027.
