Upset Alert

This is no the first time he put us on upset alert. And he was wrong then. but it gives some a reason to bash our coach. Would love to know how many of these upset alerts actually resulted in an upset?


So far this year NONE of them that involved PSU. At least 5 games PSU was on upset alert. Even the OSU game some of the experts had OSU on upset alert and they were wrong in that game too.

I am more concerned with them playing too tight. Minny has nothing to lose and it is senior night. They can take all the chances and if they lose by 40, who cares?

If Minny plays their A game, all PSU has to do is play their B game. But if PSU turns the ball over, has 50+ yards in penalties along with a couple of drops by the WRs anything can happen. It is important to stabilize early and nullify the senior night energy.
Unfortunately, PSU has had games where they have had 5 games of over 60 yds in penalties (and a few others over 40 yds) and we've seen some drops from WRs over the course of the season. The drops aren't as bad as seasons like 2003, 2004, 2023, etc but in terms of penalties, it feels like this has been the worst year in a very long time.

There were even upset alerts for PSU vs OSU. That had that wrong too.

Upset Alert

I must be missing something. This program under its current head coach is as strong in almost every aspect since the early to mid 90s.


Joebots dont really care about winning. They were happy losing to Toledo in 2000. They even made up a slogan, "Success with Honor" to cover up for the lack of success in those years.

Now they dont even care about the honor BS and try to minimize the actual success.

What does this tells us about our $9 million a year coach that many so called experts think we could lose? It means they don't think he is a good coach when it is crunch time. Pretty pathetic when you think about it. Big game James better not prove these guys right.


Not much. Same experts had PSU on at least 5 upset alerts this season. WVU, USC, Wisconsin, Washington and Illinois. What did it tell you after they were wrong?

What does that say about you?

IYO, what was the best NBA team ever?

PS> Charles Barkley is OVERRATED. He joined the 83 76ers and the team REGRESSED. He was never a team player. It was because of Barkley the team traded Moses and then they made a horrible move to trade Daugherty for Hinson.

Barkley tells people he did not have any talent around him. LOL. He played with 5 of the 50 greatest players in the history of the game and they all had rings except him. He played with Erving, Moses, Pippen, Olojuwan and Drexler. When he went to Phoenix they had the most all stars in the league and the rookie of the year. Still did not win.

How about a Steelers / Brownies thread.....

Another thing about this game. Who the hell was on Jerry Jeudy for crying out loud?!
Was this Porter Jr.?

You look at this game and the Steelers did just enough to lose. Let's see we have a missed FG and a 15 yard shanked punt that sets up the Browns close to midfield instead of their own 30 at the most crucial time you needed a good punt. Two blown 4th and short plays along with idiotic let's run the ball in the middle of a stacked defensive line on every first down. And yes let's continue to run Harris instead of going more to Warren because we like averaging 1 yard per attempt. Last but certainly not least let's make freaking Jameis Winston and Jerry Jeudy look like Montana and Rice while letting them convert on every 4th down attempt.

OSU/Michigan currently have the 2025 #1 and #2 overall recruits in the country. Both are QBs. Our QB is currently ranked #610 overall in the country.

I know it’s just one position in one year but woof. Gotta get another QB this class. Our only QB commit didn’t even win the starting QB job at his HS this year so had to transfer.

I thought the QB who just flipped to Colorado was number 2. Am I missing something?

Free does not impress anyone when they had losing records vs Michigan, OSU and dont forget the annual Iowa loss. When PSU was trailing Toledo 24-0 did anyone care how much the coach was making?

Do you want to do a cost benefit analysis? The team is making MUCH more today.

PS. He didnt work for free.

An old man who could find nothing to do in retirement. He would have coached for free. Absolutely no comparison with today's crazy contracts.

The cost/benefit is ridiculous. We are not the only school. This sort of nonsense is like a pandemic. Hopefully things change over the next few years and we no longer tolerate a culture of waste.

How to post a gif?

There are some gifs that you can post without using an external website. When you make a post, there is a "more options" choice (see pic 1). If you click on "more options," one of those additional options will be a "gif" button (see pic 2). That will allow you to search for & post a gif from giphy.com.

If you want to post a gif that isn't on giphy.com, then you have to use an external hosting site.






It does not always work. Some devices are different. For me the "image" icon works.

Who coached all the bad losses from 95-2011?

Grounding is a ten yard penalty plus loss of down which would have been huge. Like @ryoder1 stated, Steelers got screwed.

I don’t know if intentionally but it easily could have been grounding as it never crossed the line of scrimmage and there were no receivers anywhere near it.

The lineman definitely reached down and grabbed it. Should have been both penalties called and the Steelers choose which one enforced. ……st least, IMO.
I would need to see the replay to check how close the ball was to crossing the line of scrimmage. If it is not touched then the ball probably travels another yard at the most. Why would they not have reviewed it and made the grounding call if it was going to be that? Committing that illegal touching penalty helped the Browns and a penalty should not end up being a favorable advantage for a team committing the penalty.
