In this WVU football podcast, Couz and Jonathan Martin will preview the upcoming week 1 college football game between the West Virginia Mountaineers and the Penn State Nittany Lions. They will look at three keys to the game for the Mountaineers, two position battles to watch, one key player to watch and then will give their score predictions at the end.

Penn State travels to Morgantown, West Virginia on August 31 to take on WVU. Both teams are opening up the 2024 college football season with this game. The Nittany Lions are eight point favorites upon the recording of the show and are ranked in the top 10 in nearly every preseason poll. Most pundits also have them making the College Football Playoff at the end of the season.

The Nittany Lions are led by quarterback Drew Allar and a very talented running back tandem of Kaytron Allen and Nicholas Singleton. The two backs combined to eclipse the 1,600 yard mark in 2023. They do have question marks at the wide receiver position and replace three starting offensive linemen.

There are fewer question marks on the PSU defense. They have NFL talent everywhere, led by defensive end/linebacker Abdul Carter. His speed makes him a matchup nightmare coming off the edge or up the middle. They also have star safety KJ Winston who led the team with 61 tackles last season, and defensive end Dani Dennis-Sutton.

The speedy quarterback Garrett Greene will lead the Mountaineer offense into the game. He is also flanked by a talented pair of running backs in C.J. Donaldson and Jahiem White. The trio ran for over 2,000 yards in 2023. Greene also threw for over 2,000 yards with only four interceptions.

The Mountaineer defense is led by safety Aubrey Burks and defensive end Sean Martin. The two seniors will look to improve this WVU defense that had its share of struggles last season. WVU will rely on several transfers in the secondary, including Garnett Hollis who came over from Northwestern via the transfer portal.

Will the Mountaineer fans will their team to victory, or will the talent of Penn State be too much for West Virginia to overcome? Jonathan and Couz answer those questions in the episode. #wvufootball #wvu #pennstatefootball
