BIG 10 Conference - Penn State Nittany Lions Preview
Life was good for the Penn State Nittany Lions in 2005 as they won 11 games and beat Florida State Seminoles in a well fought out Orange Bowl battle. The Lions had lots of experience last year but not this year. The squad includes 9 starters, a new quarter back and a completely retooled offensive line in front of him. The running back unit seems to be decent with Tony Hunt and Austin Scott returning to the mix. A healthy Derrick Williams should bring up the RB corps up a notch and help the newbie quarter back settle in faster.

On the defensive end the Lions front seven look promising with Dan Connor, Tim Shaw, and Butkus and Bednarik Award winner Paul Posluszny. The secondary loses everyone, which is disappointing especially when they only allowed 11 touchdowns and intercepted 16 passes. The front seven will have to step up early on until things start to mesh together. Special teams are all returning untouched with 2 very good kickers. Joe Paterno's Nittany Lions might not do as good as last year but don't expect them to spiral down like they did in 2002. They still have good playmakers and an overpowering linebacker corps.
The schedule for the Lions is not easy however they manage to avoid Iowa and host both the Michigan State Spartans and the Michigan Wolverines.
