Pennsylvania State University’s board approved a $700 million renovation of its football stadium this spring, but not everybody is happy about the massive debt-funded project, writes Melissa Korn for The Wall Street Journal.

PIAA proposal to force 2-time state champions into higher class lacks support from WPIAL board
Jul. 15—The WPIAL doesn't favor a potential PIAA rule that forces two-time defending state champions into a higher classification.

USC’s Lincoln Riley discusses 2024 football schedule on Big Ten Network
USC Trojans football head coach Lincoln Riley sat down with Rick Pizzo of Big Ten Network. He discussed Caleb Williams and the 2024 USC football schedule. At Trojans Wire, we think the Penn State home game on Oct. 12 might be the pivot point of the 2024 college football season for USC, which will not have a whole lot of margin for error in the rugged Big Ten Conference: If USC beats LSU and gets to mid-October with only one loss, this game might determine whether the Trojans make the playoff. Penn State at home is not an easy game, but it is also a game USC should probably win. The Trojans’ defense should be much improved in 2024, and that’s what gives us confidence to pick USC over Penn State. The Nittany Lions simply haven’t developed their offense enough to merit the benefit of the doubt here. If this game was in Happy Valley, we would probably give PSU the edge, but not in Los Angeles.

And neither do the construction crews and cranes operators that were working on Saturday to feverishly finish some early key elements of the multi-year, multi-hundred million dollar renovation of Beaver Stadium. Time is of the essence. While downtown State College and the central Penn State campus may have been the region’s epicenter on Saturday, just a bit more than a mile to the north crews were at work trying to complete essential punch list items for a renewed Beaver Stadium.
