Penn State football will host even more top recruits on campus this weekend for the big game with Ohio State.

Penn State football hosted over 100 recruits on campus last week in the White Out against Minnesota.

The Nittany Lions won the game 45-17, giving them a much-needed boost. Penn State football will roll out the red carpet again for dozens of recruits this weekend with the undefeated Ohio State Buckeyes coming to town.

Usually, Ohio State would be the White Out game for Penn State and all the recruits would come to that. With the game being at noon this year, Penn State football opted to have the White Out during the night game against the Gophers.

This may turn out to be a huge benefit to Penn State’s recruiting efforts because now the team will host back-to-back major recruiting weekends instead of just one. This allows some recruits who had a great time last week to come back and allows those who couldn’t make it last week a chance to attend a big game with a great atmosphere.

As like last week, we’ll take a look at five of the biggest recruiting targets who have publicly stated their intentions to attend the game. The vast majority of these recruits will be from the 2024 and 2025 classes, with the 2023 class almost complete.
