The Penn State Nittany Lions are nearing the beginning of fall camp. Before they do, we're taking a big-picture look at the 2025 season to preview the team's chances at a playoff and title run. Join the show today as we take another July Tuesday to discuss Penn State's lead into the game against Oregon, Drew Allar's offseason transformation, and how the team's November date with Ohio State is an advantage or disadvantage. We'll also take your questions during the BWI Mailbag to end the show!

Join the BWI Live Show today at 10 a.m. on YouTube. If you can't catch us live, be sure to watch the replay 24/7 on the channel embedded in this article or wherever you get your podcasts.

Penn State news and notes

It's not just Penn State football making moves this fall. After a successful frozen four-run, the Men's Ice Hockey team secured an offseason prize unlike any other in program history. Top recruit Gavin McKenna chose the Nittany Lions as his school of choice. We'll discuss the program's outlook and Penn State's approach to NIL in the current landscape.

It's also EA Sports College football week! The game drops on July 10th, but deluxe edition subscribers gained access to the game on Monday.

Summer conversation series: Drew Allar

Reporter Nate Bauer sat down with the important members of the 2025 Penn State football team and staff this summer, including starting quarterback Drew Allar. Bauer shares excerpts and parts of his conversation with the staff on today's show.

We'll discuss Allar's transformation this offseaons and what's behind the starting quarterback's decision to get into the best shape of his career ahead of his senior year.

Fitz's recruiting update

Football and recruiting reporter Sean Fitz joins the show to discuss the latest Penn State recruiting news. Penn State secured two more commitments over the holiday weekend, effectively wrapping up the team's recruiting for this cycle. He'll discuss what he thinks of Gonzaga defensive end Tyson Harley and DePaul Catholic offensive lineman Marlen Bright. Fitz also turned the page to 2027 this week with an early preview of the names to know at several offensive positions. Be sure to check out his article on that. We'll discuss some of the important names on the show.

Penn State season preview month continues

Today, we'll ask more questions of our staff to get their big-picture thoughts on the 2025 season. Is it a good thing that Penn State plays three easy non-conference games and then has a bye before Oregon? We'll answer that question in the BWI Mailbag to end the show. We'll also discuss the team's showdown with Ohio State in early November. Is it better to see a team with so much turnover early or later on the schedule?

We'll discuss those topics, and more! If you want to be part of the show, join us and ask your questions or give your takes in the live chat. We'll be interacting with you all show long and taking questions in the BWI Mailbag!
