Show notes
Penn State opened the 2025 season with a 46–11 win over Nevada, and there was plenty to take away from Beaver Stadium. Host Zach Seyko and producer Zane Brancefield break down the positives and lingering concerns.The wide receivers stole the show, with Kyron Hudson and Trebor Peña emerging as a dangerous duo for Drew Allar, while Devonte Ross will only add more firepower once healthy. On defense, Dani Dennis-Sutton looked like an All-American, forcing two fumbles and dominating his matchups — but questions remain about the young defensive ends behind him. And on offense, the run game never found its rhythm, though Penn State’s offensive line and backfield remain strengths moving forward.Become an every-dayer!
