On their weekly Penn State football podcast, presented by FanDuel, host Adam Bittner and Post-Gazette/Daily Collegian Nittany Lions insider Isaiah Maldonado preview the weekend matchup with Ohio State through the lens of AD Patrick Kraft's coaching search to replace James Franklin. Could Buckeyes OC Brian Hartline be auditioning for the job in this matchup? Does he have enough coaching experience to take over in Happy Valley? And could he bring premier receivers like Chris Olave, Garrett Wilson, Jeremiah Smith, Emeka Egbuka and Jaxson Smith-Njigba into the fold? How would he pair with current Penn State DC Jim Knowles, who won a national championship in the same role last season in Columbus? And do the QB Ethan Grunkemeyer, RB Kayton Allen and interim OC Terry Smith have any shot at an upset against the nation's No. 1 team this week? Our duo tackles those questions, plus Brian Kelly's firing at LSU and the start of hoops season for coach Mike Rhoades and star recruit Kayden Mingo. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Barnett also explains how Matt Rhule's Nebraska situation might complicate things, which schools could be next to make major coaching changes, and why Indiana's rise and Billy Napier's struggles are shaking up the national landscape.

In his weekly Penn State YouTube segment, Post-Gazette sports columnist Paul Zeise joins host Adam Bittner to react to the Nittany Lions' firing of coach James Franklin this week. Was the move by AD Pat Kraft too impulsive in hindsight? Did he deserve at least another year considering Penn State was in the Big Ten championship and College Football Playoff less than a year ago? What does Paul make of legacy candidates for the job including Nebraska's Matt Rhule and Cincinnati Bengals DC Al Golden, both of whom played for Joe Paterno in Happy Valley? And what should we make of Curt Cignetti's new deal at Indiana and his potential to take the Penn State job? Our duo tackles those questions and more. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Buckle up, Nittany Nation! In this raw, unfiltered episode of Hardcore Penn State Football, we dive headfirst into the chaos that's gripped Happy Valley as the 2025 season spirals into madness. With James Franklin's stunning midseason firing still sending shockwaves through the program—just days after a gut-wrenching 3-3 skid—Penn State heads into the lion's den at Kinnick Stadium for a brutal Week 8 clash against a surging Iowa squad (4-2) on October 18. Is this the rock-bottom revenge tour nobody saw coming, or the spark that reignites our playoff dreams? We break it all down with zero punches pulled. Penn State vs. Iowa Preview: Trap Game or Total Meltdown? The Hawkeyes are rolling with a punishing ground attack—led by Xavier Williams' two-TD explosion last outing and QB Mark Gronowski's dual-threat nightmare fuel. Kinnick's nightmarish atmosphere under the lights (7 p.m. ET on Peacock) has crushed bigger dreams than ours.

Holy buyout, Batman—what a bloodbath! Franklin's pink slip (after a 104-45 tenure, a '24 playoff semi, and that elusive natty) joins a 2025 carousel on steroids: UCLA, Virginia Tech, Oklahoma State (RIP Mike Gundy), Arkansas (Sam Pittman gone), Oregon State, and even Stanford's wild Frank Reich interim experiment.

Will the ties Matt Rhule, Al Golden or D'Anton Lynn have to the program and Joe Paterno years win out? Could successful head coaches with outsider resumes like Eli Drinkwitz, P.J. Fleck and Curt Cignetti have success in Happy Valley? Should fans want to see Franklin-era legacy hires like Joe Brady and/or Manny Diaz make a return? Or would young coordinators like Brian Hartline and Ohio State or Will Stein at Oregon have the most possible upside? Our duo ponders those questions and more.

Curt Cignetti is the hottest name in Penn State circles as their coaching search begins. Should Cignetti leave Indiana, where he has built a powerhouse out of a non-traditional contender, for Happy Valley? The guys think this year's Indiana team has a legit chance to win the championship – not just in the playoff. What is the likelihood Cigentti jumps ship? Should Curt Cignetti stay at Indiana if offered the Penn State job? Mike Florio from Pro Football Talk joined the show. Mike commented on the Browns trading Joe Flacco to the Bengals, who will now face the Steelers tomorrow night. Mike said the Browns are ‘obsessed' with analytics and trying to build for a future that never comes to fruition. Mike said the turf issues at Acrisure Stadium are still no match for the punt that got stuck in the mud during the Monday Night Football game against the Dolphins in 2007 – but that came in hurricane-like weather. Mike said players are just part of the machine, and even though we hear the product suffers when big-name players get hurt, the ratings never go down. Mike thinks the players will have to sacrifice something for the owners to get a universal playing surface. Mike thinks coaches should really think hard about taking the Titans HC job. Mike is waiting for the Eagles to really dangle AJ Brown to some of the contenders in the AFC to drive up the price. Mike said he is excited to be in Pittsburgh next Sunday night for Steelers-Packers.

Happy Valley is not so happy as of late. Preseason expectations of a deep CFP seem to be of a distant past after the firing of James Franklin on Sunday. Andy Staples and Steven Godfrey dive into how Penn State fell so fast and what led to the firing of a head coach whose team was ranked #3 just three weeks ago. Then the guys look at who Penn State should look to hire to be their new head coach. Should they try to poach big names like Alabama's Kalen DeBoer or Nebraska's Matt Rhule, or should they look at one of the hot new names like Oregon offensive coordinator Will Stein or Syracuse head coach Fran Brown? The guys discuss what options are on the table.Later, there are more hurdles to now jump over for the Big Ten's attempt to get a private equity deal done. In Ross Dellenger's latest article, he explains why USC is now against signing a private equity deal. Ross is out today, but Andy and Godfrey break down what all is going on and if the Big Ten will, or even should, ever get a private equity deal done. Finally, the guys discuss a few notable topics from what we've been seeing on the field. First, they dive into the massive success, thus far, of Texas Tech. After an expensive offseason, it seems that all of the NIL investment is paying off. The Red Raiders are ranked seventh in the country and are currently undefeated going into Week 8. Andy and Godfrey discuss if they will face any hurdles in the Big 12, or if Texas Tech is going to run away with the conference. Then, they keep up the CFP talk but shift to a conference that will be fighting for a bid. The American Conference has been impressive this year, and the guys are convinced the winner of this conference will head to the CFP, but the question is who will that be? Four teams sit at the top with undefeated conference records currently. Navy, #22 Memphis, #19 USF and Tulane. Who will come away with the title and probably CFP berth?All of this and more on today's College Football Enquirer.(1:28) - What led to James Franklin's firing?(9:52) - Who should Penn State look to hire?(29:19) - The Big Ten's latest private equity issue in Southern California(44:43) - Texas Tech's Big 12 dominance(51:53) - The American Conference to the CFP?

Ohio State went to Champaign and posted a comfortable win that never really seemed in doubt, although a conservative game plan on the offensive side and some OSU red zone struggles allowed the Fighting Illini to tighten things up early in the third quarter. The Buckeyes pulled away, worked on some things, and even got some backups into the game on the road, handling the No. 17 team in the nation, 34-16.We discussed all the key moments, plays, and players in the game, checked on our picks to click to see how our chosen Buckeyes performed at Illinois, and compared notes on our score predictions, which were both extremely close to the actual final score. After our Ohio State-Illinois rewind, we discussed Penn State firing James Franklin after a second consecutive shocking loss — this time at home to Northwestern at Homecoming. The Nittany Lions also lost quarterback Drew Allar for the season, so it has been a rough few weeks for a Penn State team that is now 0-3 in Big Ten play.  Following our Franklin discussion, we looked around the rest of the Big Ten to see how other teams made out in Week 7. It wasn't just a bad week for Penn State, as Wisconsin got throttled at home by Iowa, Michigan State got blasted at home by UCLA, and Michigan was mauled at USC. Nebraska won a tight battle over Maryland, and Minnesota squeaked past Purdue. Indiana got the marquee win at Oregon. Oh, and the Huskies beat Rutgers on Friday. We also looked ahead to the matchups coming up this weekend. Washington at Michigan might be the best game to keep an eye on, while USC has a huge non-conference rivalry game at Notre Dame. Also, we think Purdue might win. Finally, we previewed the Ohio State game at Wisconsin. Camp Randall is always a great atmosphere, but it doesn't seem like the Badgers are likely to hang around in this one without some unbelievable defensive play, a few turnovers, and maybe even a big special teams play or two. But that doesn't mean the Buckeyes can take Wisconsin lightly. Nothing is certain in this sport. We would love to hear from you, so please reach out with your feedback and questions below in the comments section or send us an email at SilverBulletsPod@gmail.com.

James Franklin has been from his position of Head Coach of the Penn State Nittany Lion football team. Franklin spent nearly 12 years in Happy Valley which included a Big Ten Title, multiple New-Years 6 Appearances and 104 wins. What does this mean for PSU moving forward? Who's going to replace him

Ed, Rob, and Jeremy took some time from Tuesday's BBMS to discuss what's next for former Penn State head coach James Franklin after his flight from Happy Valley. Do you thin Franklin ends up getting a job coaching somewhere else next year? Or has his reputation for losing big games ruined his value in the eyes of blue bloods?
