No one was blocked on 3rd down but the 2nd down ruined that drive
Can't kick this have to go for it

Jesus. Allar seems dumbfounded today
4th and 13 we should have punted because Punter can only kick it 30 yards

Frustrating end to the drive.
I don't mind going for it there based on the weather but Allar's gotta try to get the ball downfield, not miss his check down badly.

What did you want him to do there?
Allen isn't getting 13--he's under instant pressure on most throws
Would have liked to see Allar force it down the field on 4th after he got loose in the pocket. Allen couldn't get a 1st and an INT doesnt hurt....
Drew has been bad today. No way around it. Has to just get that ball to the endzone there, an interception is meaningless.
Kind of no-man's land. I think if it wasn't as cold as it was, they'd kick it there and I'm not sure they have a ton of confidence in Riley. Leaves you in no-man's land.
2 of those runs were North-South, the hole was just clogged up and the backs tried to east-west out of it.
Love that GH Counter with Singleton. Opened up the pass. Then we don't run again. AK gets lost in his creativity at times.
I'm fine with that suggestion but we have to protect better to let him do so
when Drew has the wind at his back, look for a play action pass to combat their aggressive run defense
Hopefully they review that during the break and our 80th commercial
Don't know how you don't take a shot at the 3 there. 4th and 13 is very low percentage. Gotta be lower than a 46-yard attempt even with the weather factor.
Really bad spot from the refs there. Will be interested to see if it gets reviewed. FWIW, they haven't moved the ball to the opposite side of the field yet.
The kicks today indicate that there's no way we're trying a 46 yard FG and a punt is likely a 9 yard gain
If that's a first down why not challenge that spot? Generous spot that should be easy to negate on replay as the tackle was right on the hash mark.
Drew doesn't look comfortable. He seems really nervous when his first read is covered.
That's on Drew imo. He has to know to just "chuck it deep" there. Unless the ball gets intercepted and returned to the 29-yard line or better, its better for Penn State than what happened there.
I think it's the pressure more than anything--he's not getting any time
When he has, he's been okay--the throws to Warren and Dinkins
He does have to relax but Jennings has been off too
