In this bombshell episode of Hardcore Penn State Football, we tackle the seismic shakeup in Happy Valley and look ahead amid the chaos as the Nittany Lions fight to finish strong in a turbulent 2025 season! We lead with the breaking news: James Franklin's stunning departure to Virginia Tech after 12 years at Penn State—analyzing his move, is it a good fit?, and the ripple effects as he poaches staff members like Andy Frank.

Then, a full celebration of Penn State's gritty 28-10 victory over Michigan State on November 15th—snapping a losing skid to improve to 4-6. Kaytron moves closer to breaking the all-time rushing record. Finally, our in-depth preview of the Senior Day clash against Nebraska on November 22nd at Beaver Stadium: Dissecting the 7-3 Cornhuskers' run-heavy attack led by QB Dylan Raiola, matchup advantages for PSU, weather factors, and strategies to secure bowl eligibility.
