The defensive line of the Nittany Lions is composed of new faces which will be put to a test in the opening outing versus Indiana. On the other hand, the Hoosiers will be having difficulty in holding on Indiana’s offense because of the team’s weak defense due to lack of manpower. The Predicted Score, Penn State will win at 32-24.
