Penn State will conclude its spring practice session with the annual Blue White game. The event, previously announced for Saturday, April 21 will officially kick at 3 p.m.in Beaver Stadium.

The game will air live on the Big Ten Network, Penn State Sports Network and GoPSUsports.com.

More details about the game and events leading up to it will be announced at a later date.

Penn State returns 13 starters (8 offensive, 3 defensive, 2 specialists) and 26 additional lettermen. The Nittany Lions open the season at Beaver Stadium against Appalachian State September 1.

Last year, an estimated 68,000 fans were in attendance following Penn State’s Big Ten Championship season. The Blue-White Game has drawn more than 50,000 fans in seven of the past nine years, which included crowds of 70,000 or more in three of the last four years.

This season the Nittany Lions will look to make it three-straight 10-win seasons and will do so without the services of Saquon Barkley and plenty of other now former players who had become household names over the past several years.

Penn State will host marquee games against Ohio State, Michigan State, Wisconsin and Iowa at Beaver Stadium in 2018. The Nittany Lions travel to Michigan, Pitt and Rutgers.
