Week 4: Penn State Football vs. Villanova 

After three tough games to open the season, the Nittany Lions will get an easier game before heading into the heart of conference play.

Villanova played a shortened Spring season, going 2-2 against fellow FCS opponents. The Wildcats shouldn’t pose much of a threat to the Nittany Lions, who will look to rest their starters as much as possible.

This will be a good game to get younger guys some playing time and make sure that everything is settled with the Penn State offense before heading into conference play.
