.... and you pull out that book at the end of the game and call that idiotic run play, yet again, and the results are the same. You do this after admitting the same mistake the last time you did it.

Hey, they could have lost if any other play were run. But, for God's sake, why that play. The OSU staff just played our inescapable addiction to 'the book', and it surprised no one, yet again.

I think it is time to stick that book where the 'sun don't shine'.

I think it's more than just that play. Couldn't tackle when we had to, JJ drops a TD pass right in his hands...if he catches it there no 4th and 5... my main worry now is how we respond... MSU and UofM look very pedestrian and we should beat them and I think we should win out...let's put the pressure on the committee. I think someone may beat osu...I hope

Of course it’s that play.... what a bloody let down after all of that. An incredible evening and u close on that. Embarrassing, disappointing, and not sure how smart it was even with the benefit of hindsight. The middle of the field was open most of the night. Anyway, they better learn from it and run the table. But two years in a row collapsing against one of the top two teams in the country is unacceptable if you aspire for greater heights. Simply is.

The play call was awful but It should have never come to that play. Failures throughout the game allowed it to get to that point. This should have been a comfortable win and Penn state should have been in victory formation on their final drive, not 4th and game.

Reid and Farmer need to transfer to IUP and finish their playing career their!!!

Should have never been in a position to even make that idiotic play. Way to go defense! Another epic collapse!

On the other side, tOSU blames dropped passes for their bad half and an INT. tOSU didn't play a great game. No different than appy state but it came out we were on the downside of a 50/50 game this time. JJ makes a great catch over his shoulder on that last drive and perhaps it is different

BTW Hamlers injury really hurt us down the stretch. We had trouble stretching the defense

Bingo !! I could not agree more. What a player this kid is. With Hamler down the stretch it’s 90% (in my mind) that we win. Even if he doesn’t make a play he forces Ohio State’s defense to do things they would not otherwise do.
