The third-ranked Penn State Nittany Lions (0-0) kick off their 2025 campaign on Saturday when they welcome the Nevada Wolf Pack (0-0) to West Shore Home Field at Beaver Stadium.
James Franklin’s squad is coming off a stellar 13-3 season, highlighted by an 8-1 mark in the expanded Big Ten that secured a runner-up finish. The Nittany Lions earned the No. 6 seed in the inaugural 12-team College Football Playoff, where they dismantled SMU 38-10 before brushing aside Boise State 31-14 to book a spot in the national semifinals.
Nevada, on the other hand, is trying to turn the page after a difficult 3-10 season under Jeff Choate. With only a single defensive starter back and more than 50 fresh faces joining the squad, the Wolf Pack enter 2025 in full rebuild mode, hoping to piece together a new identity on the fly.
