The overrated, the underrated and the most important
Manage episode 434474267 series 3508396
Penn State knows where it's ranked (not that it matters).
They'll sign up for finishing where they start, too.
On this week's episode of the Penn Stated podcast, co-hosts Donnie Collins and Sam Fremin of The Times-Tribune in Scranton discuss the Nittany Lions' season-opening No. 8 ranking in the Associated Press poll, which was released on Tuesday. Obviously, they will be happy to finish there in the College Football Playoff rankings, considering a No. 8 will get them a home game in the first round of the 12-team tournament. But are they overrated in that spot, or underrated?
Donnie and Sam discuss that, as well as the overrated-or-underrated question on the rest of the nine teams that comprise the top 10, including three other Big Ten teams: No. 2 Ohio State, No. 3 Oregon and No. 9 Michigan.
In the second segment, the hosts discuss the most important players on the Penn State roster this season, drafting their top 6 players in terms of importance. Some may surprise you. Others might not.
