Penn State Should Be VERY Worried About Northwestern...

Locked On Podcast Network — Thu, 01 Oct 2026 09:00:00 GMT

Penn State hits the road Friday night looking to recover from its 24-20 loss to Wisconsin, but Northwestern presents a much tougher challenge than many Nittany Lions fans may expect.

Zach Seyko breaks down five predictions for Penn State vs. Northwestern, including why James Peoples could emerge as the feature running back, why the Nittany Lions' ground game should bounce back, how that could help Rocco Becht and the passing attack, and why Aidan Chiles and Chip Kelly's Northwestern offense could cause serious problems for Penn State's defense.

Plus, what role will the new Ryan Field environment play, can Penn State finally finish drives in the red zone, and why does Zach ultimately have Northwestern winning a 24-23 thriller?

Drop your final score prediction in the comments.

Big Ten Week 4 Reactions: Penn State Falls While UCLA, Iowa, Nebraska Rise!

Locked On Podcast Network — Wed, 30 Sep 2026 23:30:00 GMT

Penn State's loss to Wisconsin may have made Friday night's matchup with Northwestern far more dangerous than anyone expected.

Zach Seyko and Jacob Goins break down a suddenly chaotic Big Ten after Northwestern pushed Indiana, UCLA and Bob Chesney improved to 4-0, Iowa stunned Michigan on the final play and Nebraska remained unbeaten. But the biggest question for Penn State is what happens next.

Can Matt Campbell and the Nittany Lions rebound immediately, or does Northwestern have the quarterback play, physicality and Friday-night environment to make this another uncomfortable game?

Plus, what UCLA's rise means for the Big Ten, Oregon's response against USC and the growing pressure at Maryland.

Penn State Wrestling Has a SOLID Schedule… But Why No Oklahoma State?!

Locked On Podcast Network — Wed, 30 Sep 2026 20:00:00 GMT

Penn State wrestling's 2026-27 schedule is officially here, but one major opponent is missing: David Taylor and Oklahoma State.

Zach Seyko breaks down the full Nittany Lions schedule, including three Bryce Jordan Center duals against West Virginia, Michigan and Iowa, road trips to Oklahoma and Ohio State, the Black Knight Invitational, Journeyman Duals and Penn State's toughest stretch of the season.

Plus, why doesn't Cael Sanderson schedule Oklahoma State? Is Penn State's schedule actually too easy, or does the current formula make sense for a program built to peak at the Big Ten and NCAA Championships?

Penn State also enters the season riding an 86-dual winning streak and could finish the year at 102 consecutive victories — second-most in college wrestling history.

What's the dual you most want to see this season?

Penn State Does NOT Fully Trust QB Rocco Becht!

Locked On Podcast Network — Wed, 30 Sep 2026 09:00:00 GMT

Does Penn State truly trust Rocco Becht when the game is on the line?

After the Nittany Lions' 24-20 loss to Wisconsin, Zach Seyko is joined by Pat Koerbler (https://x.com/Poerbler) of Black Shoe Diaries to examine Penn State's conservative offensive approach, Becht's struggles and what Matt Campbell and Taylor Mouser need to change against Northwestern.

They also break down why Penn State's offense could rebound Friday night, how Aidan Chiles and Northwestern will challenge D'Anton Lynn's defense, whether Penn State's tight end usage has become too predictable and why the lack of a consistent four-man pass rush could become a major problem.

Can Rocco Becht regain the coaching staff's trust? And is Penn State's defense as dominant as the Wisconsin performance suggested?

Drop your thoughts in the comments.

FALL '26 Episode 13: On the Brink

Big Heads Media — Wed, 30 Sep 2026 04:01:00 GMT

Our first podcast description of the season ended with this question: "Is Penn State football's new leadership playing the 'Moneyball' long game while restoring the spirit of Success with Honor or placating a shrinking segment of the fanbase as the rest of college football passes them by?"

On Saturday night, in a mostly-full and distractingly (though not entirely in a good way) loud Beaver Stadium on Homecoming, we got our first meaningful data point to begin clarifying the answer to this existential question, one that is suddenly weighing heavier on Nittany Nation this week. The early returns were, let's say, discouraging. Now, as the Lions disrupt their weekly routine (a coach's favorite!) before hitting the road for a Friday night tilt in Evanston with a feisty Northwestern Wildcat squad seeking to christen their new home field with a signature win, the trajectory of Penn State's football program hangs in the balance.

Matt Campbell, Taylor Mouser ADMIT What Penn State Did Wrong vs. Wisconsin

Locked On Podcast Network — Tue, 29 Sep 2026 21:00:00 GMT

Matt Campbell and Taylor Mouser have now explained some of Penn State's biggest decisions in the 24-20 loss to Wisconsin — and the answers raise questions about what happened to the aggressive offense Penn State talked about all offseason.

Taylor Mouser discussed why the Nittany Lions became conservative as Rocco Becht and the passing attack struggled to find rhythm. Zach Seyko breaks down why adjusting the game plan made sense, but completely abandoning Penn State's offensive identity did not.

Plus, Matt Campbell explained the crucial fourth-down decision that ended with Penn State punting after a timeout. Was Penn State simply managing a difficult game, or did the coaching staff become too concerned with avoiding mistakes?

We break down the Wisconsin fallout and what has to change against Northwestern.

Iowa State Fans Warned Penn State About THIS Matt Campbell Problem

Locked On Podcast Network — Tue, 29 Sep 2026 09:00:00 GMT

Penn State's loss to Wisconsin may have revealed something bigger than one awful afternoon.

Iowa State fans warned Penn State about the frustrating side of the Matt Campbell experience: conservative decisions, playing down to manageable opponents and games that somehow slip away. After Penn State blew a 17-0 lead at home despite forcing three turnovers, was Wisconsin our first real look at that problem?

Plus, Penn State immediately faces a dangerous Northwestern team led by Aidan Chiles and Chip Kelly in the first game at the new Ryan Field. And after what we saw against Wisconsin, James Peoples has earned the opportunity to become Penn State's clear RB1.

We break down the Campbell concern, why Northwestern is a legitimate threat and why the running-back rotation needs to change.
