This prediction was not indicative of the season the team would have. In 2025, the Nittany Lions finished 7-6 overall and 3-6 in conference play. Longtime head coach James Franklin was dismissed in the middle of the season. Former Iowa State coach Matt Campbell was hired in December to take over the helm of Happy Valley. <\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>\u201cOver the past six months, we\u2019ve been reminded every day why Penn State was the right fit,\u201d said Campbell during Big Ten media day. \u201cThe history is special. The tradition is special. But what really resonated with me is how Penn State has always valued integrity, character, and class at its best.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/corporate-movers-usa.com\/?p=3605\">Did Bradley Cooper and Gigi Hadid secretly tie the knot?<\/a><\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>With Penn State being ranked 17, it seems that Campbell\u2019s peers believe he can help the program bounce back. To do so, he will lean on some familiar faces, as 24 Iowa State players followed Campbell to Penn State through the transfer portal. Notably, starting quarterback Rocco Becht previously starred for the Cyclones. <\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>In 12 games last season, playing with a torn labrum on his non-throwing shoulder, Becht threw for 2,584 yards and 16 touchdowns. He is the winningest returning quarterback in college football.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>\u201cWe have our goals in mind, and that\u2019s to win a Big Ten championship and ultimately get to the College Football Playoff to have a chance to win a national championship,\u201d Becht previously told the Inquirer. \u201cWith the team that we have now, I think we\u2019re fully capable of doing that. Everybody just has to buy in, be consistent with the standards, and I think we\u2019ll be in good hands.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/corporate-movers-usa.com\/?p=3603\">N.J. attorney general sues Amazon over delivery driver network she says is bad for workers<\/a><\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>The full coaches poll rankings are as follows: <\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>\n<ol>\n<li>\n<p>Ohio State<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Oregon<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Georgia<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Texas<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Notre Dame<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Indiana<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Miami<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Texas A&amp;M<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Oklahoma<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Ole Miss<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Alabama <\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Texas Tech<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>LSU<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>USC <\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>BYU <\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Michigan <\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Penn State <\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Tennessee<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Washington <\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>SMU <\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Utah <\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Iowa<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Clemson<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Houston<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Missouri <\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In 2025, the Nittany Lions finished 7-6 as the school parted with James Franklin midseason.
