After a heartbreaking loss at the hands of the USC Trojans in the Rose Bowl, the Penn State Nittany Lions return a loaded squad in 2017. Quarterback Trace McSorley and running back Saquon Barkley are both favorites to be Heisman finalists when it’s all said and done this season.

The only thing that Penn State needs to do to repeat as Big Ten champions and get a spot in the Playoff is knock off Michigan and Ohio State. Penn State should be extremely motivated to seek revenge after their embarrassing 39-point defeat to the Wolverines.

There’s only one tough out of conference game for the Nittany Lions this year. Facing the Pittsburgh Panthers was not something that was a positive move, in the end, for Penn State. Pitt was one of only two teams to defeat them in the regular season. However, Penn State should be the favorite against the Panthers in 2017.
