It’s game day, Penn State fans! Happy Big Ten Championship Saturday. The No. 3 Nittany Lions start the postseason today when they face No. 1 Oregon with a conference crown and College Football Playoff seeding positioning on the line. Head coach Dan Lanning’s side seeks its first Big Ten title, while the 11th-year leader of the Lions, James Franklin , aims to guide his side to its second in the last 11 years.
“We’re excited to play Oregon,” Franklin said Wednesday. “Great opportunity, playing the number one team in the country. We’re excited about that. That’s what we control. That’s what we’re focused on, not focused on anything else. I mean, I understand the question, I appreciate the question, but we’re just focused on trying to beat the number one team in the country, Oregon, in Indianapolis, in the Big Ten [title game], and just totally focused on that, and not any of the other scenarios or discussions.”
