Football GAME THREAD: No. 6 Michigan at Penn State

[PSUcup1]

We just blitzed 2 guys from 20 yards away. It’s still stupid

 

[okinburg1]

Another TCF whiff. At least one a game

 

[db90]

They get 7 on the opening drive and we may be toast

 

[Sooner Lion]

This is what half time adjustments look like folks.

 

[NCLION]

We arm tackle
too many guys who relied on pure athleticism and never developed fundamentals

 

[okinburg1]

This x 100. Need the D to get off the field pronto

 

[db90]

Got to respect Michigan’s ability to come out and bully us on this drive. Something we just don’t have the horses for on O

 

[b&w1987]

The arm tackling high strategy doesn’t seem to be working in Michigan RB. Hmmmmm.

 

[Wallace Breen]

I think we shot our shit in the fourth quarter and only got 3. All Michigan since.

For the life of me I can’t figure why the O-line is so bad. We get an O-line coach with NFL experience, who turned out all ACC lineman. 🤔

 

[okinburg1]

No Bueno. Have to get points on this drive.

 

[NCLION]

Completely outcoached and out adjusted

 

[Dylan Callaghan-Croley]

Michigan made that look, way too easy.

 

[grahamtarnold]

We are not winning this game...sorry guys...that was way too easy

They do not teach blocking, they teach "try to get in their way."

Yeah I think Michigan weathered the early storm and now just proving to be the better team. Up front on O and D are stark

 

[bdgan]

UM scores. Maybe time to rethink the strategy of blitzing and going for strips instead of keeping the play in front of us and focusing on fundamentals.

 

[NCLION]

Fundamentals
wrap on tackles
Pass protection

 

[db90]

We are not winning this game...sorry guys...that was way too easy

Yeah we may get rolled after seeing that

 

[grahamtarnold]

Hard to believe it has come to this after all the talent this team has...sad

 

[Tri-Power65]

that's our Franky!

 

[okinburg1]

What the F was that play???

 

[NCLION]

53 is just sad
we have to have someone better

 

[Tri-Power65]

Jesus, Smith needs to catch that.

 

[bdgan]

Lambert Smith has dropped 2 passes. Lovett dropped one.

 

[okinburg1]

I hope 37 is on scholarship. He is a ST beast.

 

[NCLION]

Here comes the slouched shoulder sulk Franklin teams are famous for
prepare for a quarter amd half of ineptness

 

[db90]

So we will be 10-9 in our last 19 after another loss (and to another ranked team). We are what we are

 

[Harrisburg Dave]

Did I just see 79 turn his back and try to block like he was boxing out in basketball?

It comes from coach. Minus the mask he looks like 2020 on the sidelines. Jesus coach it’s not that cold.

 

[LionRange]

This doesn’t feel like the type of game we win, typically we don’t comeback on anyone the last few years

 

[NCLION]

He just doesn’t seem into it

 

[db90]

I’m sure he’ll try anything. He just doesn’t have the skills to do it the proper way. Just can’t

 

[fjackny1]

You can't win if you can't execute on offense or defense. Michigan is doing it. PSU is not. Also, where are the adjustments to the pass rush. 79 at end is horrible. He completely whiffs on blocks 3-4 times a game.

 

[CJFisJoePaII]

Cliff does that way too often - threw the ball way harder than he had too, to a wide open player on a dump-pass. End result, throws it behind him and player can't adjust because he threw it too hard. Should have taken something off it an laid it right in front of crossing players allowing player to adjust.

 

[Harrisburg Dave]

Hard to believe it has come to this after all the talent this team has...sad

This offense has one outstanding player. That’s it. The defense has maybe 5. That’s it. Talent wise this team is limited.

 

[Harrisburg Dave]

Tar button!

 

[grahamtarnold]

No idea why Michigan didn't run that whole series

 

[Harrisburg Dave]

Plant and go. Don’t hesitate

 

[PSUcup1]

My god. What was that
