Penn State interim head coach Terry Smith met with the media on Monday to discuss the challenge ahead for his team this weekend when they visit top-ranked Ohio State.

The Nittany Lions are three-touchdown underdogs against the Buckeyes, something they're using as motivation, but they know Ohio State's talented wide receiver corps, including Jeremiah Smith and Carnell Tate will present a major challenge.

Plus, updates on what to expect from QB Ethan Grunkemeyer in his second career start, the status of injured backup QB Jaxon Smolek, whether young linebackers like Isaiah West's high school teammate Cam Smith could see a bigger role this weekend, and much more.
