Football coaches often emphasize structure, routine, and clear communication, and Penn State's James Franklin has embraced the "1-0" philosophy since his early days with the team. This approach, while common, has proven effective for Franklin's players, who have propelled the program to new heights. It helps them stay focused during chaotic times. This season, Penn State (13-2) has shown its strength in the College Football Playoff, winning big games including a 31-14 victory over Boise State in the Fiesta Bowl. The Nittany Lions will now face off against the winner of the Georgia-Notre Dame game in the Orange Bowl. Under Franklin's leadership, the team has overcome past scandals, becoming a powerhouse with a strong defense and balanced offense, led by standout players like Kaytron Allen, Nick Singleton, and Drew Allar. Their consistent success is a testament to Franklin's philosophy and the team’s dedication to playing a complete game in all areas.
