Penn State football podcast: Handing out mid-season grades for the offense and defense


Ohio State at Penn State - Football Highlights

Penn State is 4-2 at the midway point of its season, and the Nittany Lions have seemingly turned a corner after enduring a run of hard luck in the early part of the year. The linebacker position has been ravaged by injuries to starters Nyeem Wartman-White, Brandon Bell and Jason Cabinda, in the process taking awaythree of coordinator Brent Pry"s best, most experienced players.

Offensively, quarterback Trace McSorley is coming into his own in the his first season as the Lions" starter. His pairing with Saquon Barkley and a talented group of skill players has potential to keep paying off. The installation of Joe Moorhead"s spread, tempo offense has been an ongoing process that most recently yielded its best results in a 38-14 win over Maryland.

Greg Pickel and I looked at both the offensive and defensive units and handed out grades for each position group in a podcast for the Keystone Sports Network. Check out audio from the show below.
