James Franklin Gets Us Excited for Penn State's Return to Beaver Stadium

You'd be hard-pressed to find many atmospheres that can rival a game day in Happy Valley at Beaver Stadium.

A packed and whited out Penn State crowd on a Saturday is just pure bliss, and it returns in Penn State's home opener against Ball State on Saturday at 3:30 p.m.

Head coach James Franklin is surely ready to welcome a full crowd for the first time in nearly two years, releasing a hype video on Twitter that'll send chills down your arms.

Now, we can only hope this means we will see 107 thousand going crazy and singing along to Neil Diamond's 'Sweet Caroline', a Nittany Lion tradition that is unmatched.

On the field, No. 11 Penn State will look to jump out a 2-0 start on the season. The Nittany Lions are coming off a 16-10 victory over B1G rival No. 18 Wisconsin last Saturday.
