Overview

  • Penn State announced Tuesday that its 19th full‑stadium White Out will be played Oct. 10 at 7:30 p.m. ET against USC and will air nationally on NBC and Peacock.
  • Multiple outlets reported that Noah Eagle and Penn State legend Todd Blackledge are expected to be the broadcast team for the primetime telecast.
  • The Oct. 10 White Out will be the first under new head coach Matt Campbell and follows a Sept. 5 season opener at Beaver Stadium against Marshall.
  • Athletic director Pat Kraft has said recent west‑side renovations could push Beaver Stadium capacity past 108,000–109,000, which would make the USC game a candidate for a stadium attendance record.
  • The matchup pairs two nationally ranked programs, revives a recent overtime rivalry, and is widely viewed as a statement opportunity with possible College Football Playoff implications.
