## Resource

ESPN left Penn State head coach Matt Campbell outside its top 10 college football coaches—but its Football Power Index still views the Nittany Lions as a top-20-caliber team entering the 2026 season. Does ESPN believe Penn State is ready to contend immediately, or is the model overvaluing a talented but unproven roster?
