UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. - Nittany Lion head coach James Franklin met with the media Tuesday afternoon to preview Penn State's upcoming Big Ten outing against Minnesota.
Penn State (2-2, 0-1 East) is set to meet the Golden Gophers (3-0, 0-0 West) for the 14th time in program history. The Nittany Lions will look to reclaim the Governor's Victory Bell, which has been presented to the winner of the matchup since Penn State's first Big Ten outing in 1993.
As is weekly tradition, Franklin recapped the previous week before diving into Minnesota addressing a few areas of improvement along the way.
Penn State will remain home for most of the month of October, opening up a three-game homestand against the Golden Gophers Saturday at 3:30 p.m. on the Big Ten Network.
"We're excited about being back at home," Franklin said. "I think there is a distinct advantage obviously all over the country in being at home compared to being on the road. We're excited about being back in Beaver Stadium in front of our fans and friends and family, and a great opportunity to go out and play a good football team and have an opportunity to be 1-0 this week, which is our goal and our focus."
