Underrated 2021 storylines: Penn State’s bounce back, Year 2 coaches and more (07/19)

The Cover 3 crew talks key topics under the radar in the 2021 college football preview. The conversation begins in the Big Ten where Ohio State, Michigan and Nebraska are going to get plenty of attention but Penn State is one of the most interesting teams in the conference (2:30). Then, the many narratives around the very fluid middle pack in the Big 12 (9:00), notable coaches going into Year 2 (14:30), the impact of immediately eligible transfers who project to be Power Five starters (17:30), the Pac-12’s non-conference schedule (23:00) and the second-best team in the ACC Atlantic (31:00). Finally, headlines from a busy weekend on the recruiting trail that included Lincoln Riley getting a commitment from another five-star quarterback (41:45).
