Open practice review

The Penn State football team is doing its best to prepare for a sleepy atmosphere at Northwestern, which is, historically, a challenge for teams who play in front of large, energetic crowds. Head coach James Franklin addressed that after practice on Wednesday.

"Well, I think just being honest. Just being very honest about what it's going to be like. These guys are 2-0 win at home. You look at Northwestern; they've typically had good home records. Why? Because it can be challenging to play there. They're used to the environment. Other people may not be. It's going to be very different than what we played in last week. So, just being transparent and honest. Are we internally motivated? Are we externally motivated? But, for me to act like it's not a factor, it is; you got to get prepared for it," he said.

Bauer and Fitz will discuss what they saw from the offense and defense in the team's preparation for the road battle with Northwestern. They'll also discuss their major takeaways from Franklin's comments about the Penn State football team heading into the game.

They'll also give their score predictions for the upcoming game.
