The regular season came to an end this week, not with a bang but with a big whimper. Penn State gets blown out at home on senior night and struggles to score at Rutgers, going 0-2 on the week. Unlike last year, there will be at least one more game for this Penn State team and we preview the start of the Big Ten Tournament in Chicago on Tuesday. Before that, we answer the question: have you seen enough of the Mike Rhoades experiment...
Penn State got a lot of good use out of their mini-bye and pulled off the home upset of the Iowa Hawkeyes. Steve breaks it down before being joined by Evan to preview the end of the regular season with Senior Day against the Buckeyes before traveling to Rutgers with revenge on their minds.

Things somehow went from bad to worse for the Nits this week as they failed to take care of business at home against Rutgers before traveling out to Lincoln for another noncompetitive contest against the Cornhuskers.

The Nits picked up a road win this week against a good team but we're somehow still a little annoyed about some things. The loss to Oregon on Saturday exacerbated some of these concerns. We talk about the week that was for Penn State and preview the most winnable game (on paper, at least) left for the Nittany Lions taking shape this week.

So close and yet so far for the Nittany Lions on Sunday. At Michigan was...well...more of the same for the Nits on the road this season. We break down yet another 0-2 week for Penn State and wonder if there is any light at the end of this long tunnel as they head to the West Coast for 2 this week.

We're back and it's more of the same for Penn State. One game this past week featured another blowout while another had us getting behind big early and then fighting back late to no avail. We break down this rinse, repeat of an experience and look for some light at the end of the tunnel this week and perhaps see a way to grab a conference win(?)

Penn State's winless start to the big ten slate continued this week...and yet, they seem to be exceeding expectations? Or are they? Does it feel that way? We talk about how it feels to experience the 0-5 start we all generally thought would happen in the first place. We test the theory that not all 0-5's are created equal. We also preview this week's matchup and ask the question: will it end? Will Penn State finally ...
Well it was a 1-1 week in which Penn State seemed to play about 2 halves of decent basketball and 2 halves of indefensible ball. We break down the good, the bad, and the ugly of the week that was. We also take a step back and evaluate how these players are meeting expectations in the early going.

Not all 0-2 weeks are created equal. While there were some positives this week, there was also a lot of bad (particularly in Bloomington). We talk about it and get a bit more in depth as to what's ailing this Penn State team and how they can right the ship.
We then preview an interstate matchup against the Pitt Panthers next weekend. Can Penn State get their first non Quad-4 win of the young season?

Not all 2-0 weeks are created equal and we elaborate on that this week as Penn State struggled against a pesky Boston team before running up the score against Sacred Heart over the weekend.
Only one game to preview this week so we take some time after the recap to talk about the first NET rankings of the year and what they mean (if anything) for PSU in the early goings of the season.

One of the longest winning streaks in the country came to an end on Saturday with Penn State's lost to Providence. However, many of the same issues that have plagued the Nits since the start of the season came back to rear their ugly head earlier in the week in a close win against Harvard. We break it all down and preview what hopefully will be a get right week against two subpar opponents at home.

Penn State starts 2-0 for the 4th consecutive season and did so in 2 wildly different fashions. We're back to break down the good, bad, and the ugly from week one of the 2025-26 season.
After that, we preview what is expected to be the first 2 moderate tests of the young season with a Veterans Day matchup against Navy looming before the Nits hit the road again for a matchup in Philly against La Salle.

Saskia Inwood woke up one morning, knowing her life would never be the same. The night before, she learned the unimaginable – that the husband she knew in the light of day was a different person after dark. This season unpacks Saskia’s discovery of her husband’s secret life and her fight to bring him to justice. Along the way, we expose a crime that is just coming to light. This is also a story about the myth of the “perfect victim:” who gets believed, who gets doubted, and why. We follow Saskia as she works to reclaim her body, her voice, and her life.
