CFB Expert Says Penn State Will Be on UPSET WATCH in Matt Campbell’s Debut!

Penn State opens the Matt Campbell era against Marshall on Saturday, and this Week 1 matchup may be more interesting than the 24.5-point spread suggests.

Locked On Sun Belt host Dave Schultz joins Zach Seyko to break down Carlos Del Rio-Wilson and an experienced Marshall offense, how D'Anton Lynn's new Penn State defense can contain the Thundering Herd quarterback, and where Taylor Mouser and the Nittany Lions offense should have the advantage.

Plus, Dave makes a bold prediction about Marshall holding a fourth-quarter lead, Zach gives his final score prediction, and both explain why they're hesitant to lay more than three touchdowns with Penn State.

Who wins, does Marshall cover, and how nervous should Penn State fans actually be?

Drop your score prediction below.
