Observations from Penn State's final full-go practice before Blue-White Game | Centre Daily Times

Penn State ended its final full-go practice before Saturday's Blue-White Game with swagger. And plenty of it.

Running a two-minute drill, Nittany Lions cornerback Jabari Butler picked off quarterback Michael Shuster, weaved through offensive linemen and took it to the house. Butler wasn't finished, tossing the ball in the air upon reaching the end zone as teammates jumped around him in unison.

Five days removed from witnessing a "sloppy" and "unacceptable" practice, James Franklin preached discipline following Monday's session. But his players were loving the outward show of emotion.

"We got some swagger to us compared to years past," Penn State offensive tackle Ryan Bates said.
