hmmm I don't hate going for that on the surface level but probably would've punted it considering how well the defense has been playing. Probably an unnecessary risk.

And there it is. Stupid Franklin decision.
I don’t know if we got it, but we were definitely further up field than the spot.
Did not mind going for it there, but hated the call.
Our defense is going to be gassed during the second half as a result of an absent offense.
We could easily lose this game. Not being able to throw down field is a big problem. No receivers.
It would be a miracle for this team to go far in the playoffs.

I can't wait for someone to try and defend that decision. What a F'ing terrible game day coach.
4th and a foot. We need to make that. This offensive line blows right now. Does not bode well if we can't improve.
Thank God for Deluca.
Thank God for Deluca.
He was just setting up the D for another INT.
PSU making up for 15 years of dropped Ints...Franklin sucks. Thank god for TOs.
I don't think there's a big difference between giving it to them at the 29 or better, if short of the first, versus the 10 or maybe even the 20 if it goes into the end zone. We can't assume the punt would have been dead at the 1.
No game would be complete without one. Now let's hope that meets today's quota.
Why go for it on 4th and 1 on your own 20? Because you have absolute trust in your defense right now. James Franklin knows his defense is massively in Kevin Jennings's head right now and is daring him to beat them. And so far, Jennings can't.
