The Penn State Nittany Lions conclude spring practice this weekend with the annual Blue-White Game at Beaver Stadium. After four months without any football, every player might interest fans when they watch the two-hour scrimmage on Saturday. Yet we’ve tried to narrow the list down to five players on each side of the ball. Join us on today’s BWI Live Show to discuss who those players are.

If you haven’t yet, today is a great day to subscribe to the Blue White Illustrated YouTube Channel. Penn State holds its final open practice of the spring period on Tuesday evening, so head coach James Franklin’s press conference comes to you tonight. We’ll also have great live content heading into the weekend on the BWI Live show. Join us at 10 am on Wednesday and Thursday as we review practice and the weekly recruiting news. Then, head to Nittany Cards Plus at 1631 South Atherton Street at 2 pm for our live Blue-White Game preview.

All of that, plus player interviews and more from Blue White Illustrated!

It’s not just depth players who pique the interest of fans and media this year. We’re all about to see how Abdul Carter’s transition to defensive end is going.

Another fan favorite this weekend is freshman center Cooper Cousins. The five-star lineman has caused a stir so far this offseason with his continually impressive performance.

Simply put, Cousins is breaking the expectation curve for a freshman offensive lineman. Not only is he in a position to compete for playing time, but he’s also working for a starting job at center. Most linemen who play early find a role as a guard or maybe a tackle if they’re elite athletes. Cousins is taking on the dual challenge of a mentally taxing position and adjusting to college football.

While it’ll be hard to gauge how he does for most fans during the game, we’ll follow up after with film breakdowns to highlight what we see.
