No comments on Drew cussing out a fan?

When was the last time that we had a 5 Star QB verbally sparring with opposing fans?

During the game I referenced the Anthony Morelli @ Michigan fiasco.

At least Drew was fired up during the game and not after getting our ass kicked in.

But yeah- he likely knew he was hurt- and probably was boiling over- and while I agree with his sentiment- he has gotten off pretty scot-free for an immature move.

Maybe his clean cut- All American look helped him get the benefit of the doubt?

If this were Sanders' kid on the Buffs it would likely be covered a lot more with split opinions on level of "class" displayed.

Hope he learns and moves ahead quickly

Landon Tengwall is confident that Allar has a Grade 1 MCL injury.

....and they can't even get the quote right as they have reversed the order of what he had said.

There is a difference in what was alleged he had said. One was a declarative statement while the other was an interrogatory statement.

On the playground when I was growing up, the declarative version potentially got you a punch in the face.

Did PSU and Wisky players not like each other?

Might have just been camera angles, but end of the game at Madison seemed odd -- PSU players went to the center of the field to greet the Wisky players but almost no Wisky players were there to meet them from what I could see. Did the Wisky coaches and team run to the locker room and skip the handshake ritual?

There didn't seem to be any unusual amount of on the field jawing. Wisconsin coaches are clearly coaching players to go right up to the line of targeting and maybe PSU players were talking to them about it. They're trying to cause concussions without actual helmet contact. What can you do, it's legal. Maybe Wisky has to do it because they have so many people in their secondary who are big slow overachiever types. They hit hard because they can't cover, I get it. But I didn't love the way they were hitting Wallace high after the catch. Maybe it's frustration because Wisky hasn't beaten PSU in so long and they really thought they had a chance. Or maybe it's nothing.

I watched the game. I thought that Beau did great considering he is a Soph and doesn't get the first-team reps. But he also looked really shakey those first two possessions. I also thought the team didn't look as settled on offense with him in there. While I am comfortable with Beau at QB this week, Allar gives us our best chance to win.
While I thought Beau was indeed great after settling in- a few of the "tight windows" that Blackledge was lauding may well be INTs vs OSU.

A more limited Drew may not be the asset we need to WIN- but I'm hoping he can go.....if not- flick the switch and we have to roll w/ Beau and hope for a lot of help from the D and likely kicking game

Jaylin Reed was penalized 15 yards following his game changing pick six because he gave the ball to his mother who sitting nearby in the stands.

I thought the broadcast team kept away from some controversial stuff. It looked like Allar got into a shouting match with someone when he was walking off the field late in the second quarter. They showed it three times but the announcers said nothing. After the first play, a W player hit one of our guys while he was on his knees after the play and some trash-talking. I was surprised there was no flag but the announcers said nothing. They were very vocal about the bogus holding call on the long kickoff return. They also mentioned a missed PI call against one of our WRs. Lastly, the color guy read a statement about the rape allegations but they offered no other comments other than the statement. Blackledge didn't make a peep.
Re: 'Blackledge didn't make a peep.' Todd was just confirming the official possession of the university regarding this topic.

Re: Blackledge on the broadcast: I caught him using a 'they' when describing what Wiscy needed to do in specific situation. And he also was too focused on who recovered our 4th down fumble when the reality was that the location of the recovery made it a moot point. No PSU 4th down conversion.

His broadcasts are usually flawless. I realize that NBC provides a better opportunity for Todd but so far, I enjoyed his previous calls with Brad Nessler more than his new partner.

Where are all the Pribulla Package haters now?

Just curious. I suppose if has a bad game the will wiggle their way out of their wormholes again. In fact, I am sure of it.

Before that happens, remember one thing. He is gamer and we are not.
Whatever happens with Pribula in this game he has proven that he is a very capable back-up that many including me, had concerns about his readiness. That was a pressure packed situation and he excelled.
Good on him.
Fans that attend this game need to give him patience and unwavering support.

Football Ohio State defeats Penn State, 20-13

Apologies, my little one decided that he needed some one-on-one time during Franklin's presser... But to recap...we'll have a full trnascript later today.

- Believes Ohio State's defense has taken their game to another level this season.

- Thought Amin Vanover and Smith Vilbert both played well last week against Wisconsin. They'll need them to continue to play well this week

- Sounds like DDS injury isn't too major but like Allar, it will be an injruy that probably is a gametime decision.

- Ethan Grunkemeyer is coming along really well, a lot of potential excitement within the buildin about his potential.

- Both Donkoh and Rucci are expected to play this week.

- Thought Andy did a great job of calling Saturday's game to the strengths of Beau. The program likes what they've seen out of his devlopment.

Or in how engaged he was on the sideline in the second half? Drew's gotta ignore the cat calls. This isn't good, IMHO, although I like the spunk.

Disagree completely, some real low-claas bullshit to be cheering an injury especially when Drew was Facemasked twice with no flag including on the play he was injured on.
