Penn State opens its 140th football season on Saturday afternoon when the No. 18/17 Nittany Lions host Marshall at West Shore Home Field at Beaver Stadium. Kickoff is set for 3:30 p.m. on FS1, and the program will stage its 11th Stripe Out, a tradition that has become one of the most visually striking home atmospheres in college football.
The matchup marks just the third meeting between the two programs and the first since 1930. Penn State won the 1929 contest 26–7 and followed with a 65–0 victory the next year, a reminder of how long it has been since the Thundering Herd last visited Happy Valley.
