Penn State tweets of the day

We start with report day. The Nittany Lions arrived at the Lasch Building on Tuesday to check in and prepare for the start of preseason camp. It kicks off with a practice on Wednesday as the team officially sits four weeks from the first game week Wednesday of the year.

“When you talk about our season and where we’re going, obviously we open up the season against a really good opponent at our place, West Virginia, 7:30 national television,” Franklin said at Big Ten Media Days. “So to open the season with that type of opponent is exciting and has our team motivated.

“When you talk about question marks leading into the season, to me every year when we come to this, that’s kind of how I look at our season, is based on question marks. I think we probably have less question marks this year than we have in previous seasons.”

CBS Sports agrees. The outlet released its final 1-133 ranking of every FBS college football team ahead of the new season. Penn State is at No. 7. It is also where the program was ranked at the end of the 2022 season. The Lions are the third highest-ranked Big Ten team behind Michigan and Ohio State at Nos. 2-3 respectively. Georgia leads the way, and LSU and Alabama round out the top five.
