    College football fans witnessed a significant upset in Week Zero after the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets beat the No. 10 Florida State Seminoles in Dublin, Ireland. The win snapped a 15-game losing streak to top 10 teams for Georgia Tech.

    Joel Klatt discussed another potential upset that could happen in Week 1 for a particular Big Ten school. On a recent episode of " The Joel Klatt Show ," Klatt described the Penn State Nittany Lions' season opener as a "trap game." The Nittany Lions take on the West Virginia Mountaineers in Morgantown.

    He credited West Virginia fans for the atmosphere that they will create.

    "...All this newness for Penn State, and they're going to walk right into kind of a trap because that place is going to be on fire, and I cannot wait to experience it," Klatt said. "The Mountaineer fan base is one of the great fan bases in all of college football, and they are going to pinned on Saturday."

    Last season, Penn State played West Virginia by a convincing 38-15 margin. However, the game is in West Virginia this year, and it will not be easy for Penn State.

    The Mountaineers bring back stars like quarterback Garrett Greene, running backs CJ Donaldson and Jahiem White, offensive tackle Wyatt Milum, and safety Anthony Wilson.

    Penn State also has plenty of firepower on both sides of the ball. Quarterback Drew Allar, running backs Nick Singleton and Kaytron Allen, linebacker Abdul Carter, and defensive end Dani Dennis-Sutton all return for the Nittany Lions.

    The all-time series historically favors Penn State, who leads the series 49-9-2. Kickoff from Morgantown is at noon ET on FOX.
