Jaquan Brisker describes 'crazy feeling' at Penn State's Beaver Stadium
Penn State Safety Jaquan Brisker is more than ready to play in front of a packed Beaver Stadium.
Brisker spoke to the media on Wednesday about how it’s always a crazy feeling to play in front of the sold-out crowd there and also gave the younger players a valuable tip.
Jaquan Brisker: "Every time you walk into Beaver Stadium it's a crazy feeling. … I tell the young guys, especially on defense, make sure the communication is well. It gets loud"

Beaver Stadium has always been one of the loudest stadiums in the country so making sure everyone has the correct assignment is going to be crucial.
Brisker had a great start to the 2021 season against Wisconsin this past Saturday as he had 4 tackles and an interception. The interception almost turned into a pick-6 as he returned it for 41 yards.
He’s coming off his best season in 2020 as he finished with 57 total tackles (33 solo) with 1 interception and 4 passes defended.
The Nittany Lions will have their home opener against Ball State this Saturday at 3:30 p.m. ET. It will be the first time they’ve had a sold-out crowd since the 2019 season. The game will be televised by FS1.
