It’s over to Beaver Stadium for the BTB Game of The Week. Get ready for the sea of white in Penn States “White Out” game where they take on No. 6 Oregon for a prime-time spectacular. Oregon will try to turn the corners into a racetrack, chasing explosives with tempo and perimeter speed. Penn State will look to answer with downhill bruising on the ground, play-action body blows, and a red-zone defense built to tighten the screws when pulses spike. It’s got all the vibes of a playoff game, but somebody has to blink. Let’s go with a score line of Penn State 30, Oregon 27, sealed by a late stand as the White Out rattles the rafters.

That’s why early whispers already have him circled as a 2026 top-tier tight end in the draft.
A.J. Harris, CB
Harris doesn’t just look the part of a boundary bully he plays it with swagger. He marries length with easy hips and a turbo button that shows up when a receiver thinks he’s got a step. Press-man is his stage where you see him stab at the release, ride the red line, and still have the recovery juice to erase a...
