Early in Franklin’s tenure at Penn State, Key was Penn State’s Homecoming Grand Marshall.

Then, the two hatched a grand plan. Key was to come into Penn State’s meeting room and imitated Franklin. It ended up being a smash hit.

Some highlights include:

“Guys, if I want to create a play, and I want you to create a big play, we’re going to get out they’re and we’re going to create a big play.”

“It’s one game at a time, one week at a time, one day at a time, one play at a time.”

“Guys, I’ve never said this before. I’ve never said this before, but I’m going to say it today. It’s gonna be here before you know it.“

PAST GAMEDAY HILARITY

Key has imitated Franklin on GameDay before, doing so in September 2017. The context was that Key gave a fake response as Franklin to Franklin controversially calling timeout near the end of a 56-0 win over Georgia State the previous week.  

After Penn State beat Iowa that night, Franklin used part of his postgame presser to clarify that it was Key, not he.

No. 3 Penn State is scheduled to take on No. 4 Ohio State at noon Saturday Nov. 2 on Fox.
