Penn State coach James Franklin understands the continued focus on his big-game struggles, especially in the wake of Saturday's overtime home loss to Oregon .
But Franklin can control how he views those games, and how he chooses to respond to the scrutiny. The Oregon loss dropped Franklin to 4-21 against AP top 10 opponents at Penn State, tied for the third-worst record by a head coach at a single school in the AP poll era.
