Penn State reached the College Football Playoff for the first time this season, but several late mistakes led to a 27-24 loss to Notre Dame in the Orange Bowl. The Nittany Lions are 1-18 against top-five teams under head coach James Franklin, who is coming off his 11th season at the helm. He is tasked with rebuilding the 2025 Penn State football roster since the Nittany Lions are expected to lose key players at multiple positions. All-American defensive end Abdul Carter declared for the NFL Draft just hours after the loss to Notre Dame, with the reigning Big Ten Defensive Player of the Year expected to be a top-five pick.
Carter played through a left shoulder injury against the Fighting Irish, but still had his 12th sack of the season. The rest of the Penn State football roster has five days to decide whether they want to enter the college football transfer portal, making this a critical window for Franklin and the Penn State coaching staff.
