Football Defense powers Penn State to 38-10 win over SMU in CFP First Round

Cold weather lends itself to the team who is more physical and makes the least mistakes.

Today, that is us.



The gut punching from earlier has paid off. Our backs are averaging 7.3 and 6.4 ypc now on 23 rushes. Nick needs 12, Fatman 30 for them both to break 100.

OL and TEs blocking very well now.
So looking way ahead. If we get to play Georgia or ND then our O-Line needs to play a lot better.
 
Bad pass by Grunk.
Yes, it wasn't great, but I don't think wallas he uses his size nor his presence well. The pass that got picked off in the end zone by ohio state was inexcusable.He has to do better. I think james was really p***** at him more so than ethan

I think Franklin was furious that we were throwing the ball on that INT. Just hand the freakin' rock off and go into the locker room already.
He should be furious--it was beyond stupid
It's not helping Grunk or run clock
 
More likely scenario:

-move Cam Miller to S
-Miller ends up in the portal

He's a decent tackler. Might could play the Lion role Reed did, but he's a liability in m2m coverage.

I really think it was just the poor execution, he hates that crap
 
Don't like what I'm seeing from this team after the play. That could have been construed as taunting by Allen. You don't celebrate when the other team is right in front of you. In fact you don't celebrate at all as that takes away time that you should be using to get ready for the next play.

Why is it that Franklin won't school his team on this stuff? Coach Allen too? Way too emotional. Doesn't lead to being well focused on execution.
I don't like that either. I assume Franklin DOES school his players but they aren't getting the message.
 
after all the crap he's taken its nice to see Elsdon playing in a playoff game
And promptly dropped an easy INT.

I wouldn't call it "crap", all the times he was laying on his butt as OSU and UM RB's ran on by during his career.....
