 The video, sponsored by Concierge Medical Associates,  Throughout the offseason, Penn State's coaching has hinted at featuring a special 'Beau Pribula Package' on offense this year. Assuming that comes to fruition, we had Coach Codutti outline the redshirt sophomore QB's skillset and chronicle the ways he was used in 2023. Then, we had Codutti showcase a variety of mobile QB concepts new Nittany Lions offensive coordinator Andy Kotelnicki drew up at Kansas from 2021-2023. 

 The video, sponsored by Concierge Medical Associates,  Offensive coordinator Andy Kotelnicki has relied on the wide zone rushing attack at Buffalo and Kansas, but will it succeed at Penn State? Coach Codutti, who uses the wide zone at Fulshear High School in Houston, explains the key elements, including running back reads, offensive line blocking, and counters like play-action boot when defenses overcommit on the backside.

Penn State safety Kevin Winston Jr. stood out last season. As a sophomore, he led the team with 61 tackles, missing none, and forced incompletions on 20% of pass targets, ranking first among Penn State defenders. Coach Codutti highlights the details that make Winston a top candidate for the 2024 Bednarik Award and possibly the best safety in college football.

Penn State's heralded defense was completely out of sorts. Defensive coordinator Tom Allen's star-studded unit surrendered 24 points and more than 250 yards of total offense. Then, in the second half, the script flipped.  In this week's FTB Film Study, Coach Codutti diagrams what went so wrong for the Penn State defense in Quarters 1&2, and what went so right for the Penn State defense in Quarters 3&4 that allowed the heavily-favored Nittany Lions to hang on for a 34-27 victory.

 Stuck in the booth, high above a stadium buzzing with 'White Out Energy,' Penn State defensive coordinator Tom Allen pulled all the right levers in the 2nd half of the Nittany Lions' 21-7 triumph vs. a ranked Illinois squad. Coach Codutti explains how Allen's "wins" on 1st and 2nd downs enabled him to unleash a full "Catalog of Chaos" on 3rd downs. In the final 30 minutes of play, the Fighting Illini were held to 61 total yards on offense...thanks largely to Allen's pressure schemes.

Brandishing a keen sense of football knowledge, humor, and unfiltered opinions, the Obligatory crew has cultivated a 'Tell It As It Is' reputation among diehard Penn State Football fans. 

Trailing 10-7 at halftime on the road, Penn State QB2 Beau Pribula stepped in for the injured Drew Allar and the Nittany Lions had offensive scoring drive in what turned out to be a decisive 28-13 victory.  Coach Codutti critiques Pribula's unexpected appearance -- the good, the bad, the ugly -- and highlights how Penn State OC Andy Kotelnicki tailored concepts to fit Pribula's skillset and how Pribula's mobility completely altered the way the Badgers responded.

After scoring a measly 3 points on 3 red zone possessions vs. Ohio State, Penn State offensive coordinator redeemed himself a week later in the Whiteout vs. Washington. Prior to the Nittany Lions final drive, which ended the game, Penn State was a perfect 5 for 5 inside the Huskies 20 -- utilizing 3 different QBs (Allar, Pribula, and Warren) to collectively cross the goal line on each trip.  Coach Codutti shows you how Kotelnicki slightly altered base concepts in the Red Zone.
