Description: Oregon just dropped 69 points on Oklahoma State, and the hype around the Ducks has Penn State fans on edge ahead of the upcoming Whiteout showdown in Beaver Stadium. Host Zach Seyko and recruiting expert Brian Smith break down why Dante Moore and Oregon’s weapons will test PSU, how the trenches could decide the game, and why Penn State still has an edge at home.We also cover a big recruiting win: defensive tackle Tavian Branch flips from Rutgers to Penn State, and why his film shows he’s more than just a run stuffer. Plus, the Nittany Lions are now in the mix for Elijah Haven, the No. 1 QB in the 2027 class, who will visit for the Whiteout. What does that mean for Penn State’s long-term QB board alongside Keegan Croucher?Become an every-dayer!
