Penn State practice preview

The Penn State football team gears up for another Big Ten opponent this weekend when they face UCLA at Beaver Stadium. We'll get our first and only look at the team's preparations for the upcoming game tonight when the the Nittany Lions open up practice. Host Greg Pickel takes you through what BWI is looking for in the weekly ten-minute window. We'll also preview head coach James Franklin's post-practice interview, which you can watch moments after its conclusion tonight.

The Tuesday BWI Live show is so stocked with interesting conversations that we get to fewer mailbag questions each week than we would like. This week, we hit an all-time low. So, we're making up for that and re-opening the mailbag today during the Wednesday show. We'll answer questions from the Blue White Illustrated message board members, including a discussion on the cornerback room and more.

What sort of step does the team need to take after a dominant performance against Illinois that only resulted in 21 points? We'll highlight some of the areas that the team can improve so that they're ready for the teeth of its Big Ten schedule.

Reviewing the best performances from this past weekend

Finally, we'll take one last look at Penn State's win over Illinois and highlight some underrated aspects of the game in our review of the weekly film breakdown. Penn State defensive coordinator Tom Allen finally deployed defensive end Abdul Carter as a linebacker during the previous game. What went into that, and how did he perform in those situations? We'll discuss how the move wasn't exactly what you'd think.

Next, we'll discuss the defensive decision to play the team's 11th defender. Why did redshirt freshman linebacker Dakaari Nelson play more than Cam Miller and Dejuan Lane? We'll break down those decisions. Lastly, we'll review the top run blocking performances from a standout game up front.
