Football GAMEDAY THREAD: Penn State Football versus Kent State

[Dylan Callaghan-Croley]

Kent had 43 total yards in the first half. How was it so close until 5:30 left in the half? How did they keep punting and pinning us deep? Just so weird. Seems like this program is just cursed.

I think only one three and out ofr Kent State but they also never had more than like seven plays. Pinned Penn State deep consistently and the Nittany lions offense hasn't chosen to be overly aggressive. Kent State also can't throw the ball and is almost exclusively running the ball. Combine all that and it wasn't too surprising.

It just sucks that we can't be oh so impressive like these highly-ranked SEC teams such as #7 Missouri struggling mightily against a suck@ss Vandy team. LMAO

Somewhere there are Pitt fans comparing scores and believing in their black hearts they are the better team. Honestly Kent State is down to 3rd team QB, and prayers to young man now at Mt Nittany Hospital.

It was 28-14 at halftime of the Pitt game, so how would they think that?

 

[Dylan Callaghan-Croley]

It is Kent State but dear lord, Drew Allar has made some beautiful passes today.

 

[knickslions]

You overestimate voters. We also "struggled" against BGSU and the WVU win looks anything but quality

Drink

 

[CJFisJoePaII]

Allar actually threw a badly underthrown pass (Evans came to a full stop and almost needed to come back for it), but Evans still scored - that's how far behind the defense he was.

 

[Nostraduzzi]

Not wrong. Beau can throw the ball in the second half today but barring injury this is Drew's team.

Make up yer mind. 😄

 

[LandoComando]

Drink

I'm happy to drink--thankfully they survived today--hopefully they fix their issues.

 

[mean15]

I didn’t think that pass was ever gonna come down to earth

 

[LandoComando]

Make up yer mind. 😄

When the backups are in anything is allowed--the game would be over by then

 

[Lion_Backer]

Nobody is going to make a decision for playoffs based on a 70-0 or 50-0 score against Kent.

No college football team ever won a champion in September.

Rack up the wins, avoid injuries and continue to improve.

Every team goal is still there for the taking.

It's a long season and it's difficult to get up for every game. For every team.

 

[LandoComando]

Hopefully the starters are done for the day--no injuries needed

 

[TheWizardofCamelot]

8 offsides by the DL in two and a half games. How is this continuing to happen? That’s pop warner stuff, Barnes.

 

[RickinDayton]

Vandy 10
Mizzou 7

UCLA & LSU tied @ 17, half time. Game is @ LSU.

 

[PSUWrestlingFanSince2011]

Why are the starters still in?

 

[LandoComando]

Singleton playing doesn't make any sense

 

[CJFisJoePaII]

Why can't we be impressive like #7 Mizzou whose losing 13-10 at the half to Vandy?

 

[CJFisJoePaII]

Pribula a much better QB than many here give him credit for...

 

[PSUWrestlingFanSince2011]

Ok all backups now

 

[PSUWrestlingFanSince2011]

Agree

Some on here just like to complain.

 

[LandoComando]

Some on here just like to complain.

The people that like to complain are those trying to pretend Beau should be getting any meaningful snaps as long as Drew is on campus and healthy

I notice most of them aren’t here anymore.

Beau is incredibly hard to defend. He could be important vs some teams in short yardage situations.

 

[PSUWrestlingFanSince2011]

#83 maybe don’t dive for a punt?

 

[CJFisJoePaII]

scUM starting to fade... USC scores on first possession of 2H, has scored the last 10 points scored in game (now trailing 14-10) and stopped scUM on their first possession and now have ball back....

aaaaaaamd Miller Moss threw a pick six.

 

[scrivener]

We have a penalty problem on this team. Stupid after stupid penalty. I'm glad JF tore into Jven...he needs to do much more of that.

 

[LandoComando]

We have a penalty problem on this team. Stupid after stupid penalty.

Got a week to fix that

 

[GSPMax]

Robinson (24) knows how to tackle.

 

[PSUWrestlingFanSince2011]

Michigan recovered a fumble at their own 3 but their DT fumbled it back.

 

[LandoComando]

Robinson (24) knows how to tackle.

Yeah, I'd like to see Ta'Mere play more often

 

[PSUWrestlingFanSince2011]

Robinson (24) knows how to tackle.

He should play over Elsdon all day

 

[CJFisJoePaII]

aaaaaaamd Miller Moss threw a pick six.

And USC marched right down the field and scored again.... scUM missed X-Point so score now 20-17.

 

[scrivener]

It's been 3 weeks and it has gotten worse.

 

[jmorovich]

Penalties are this team’s favorite!!!

 

[LandoComando]

It's been 3 weeks and it has gotten worse.

Hopefully Franklin and the staff can convince them if they aren't disciplined against Illinois the outcome may be different

 

[PSUWrestlingFanSince2011]

Marched right down the field? They fumbled but got the fumble back luckily for them?

 

[CJFisJoePaII]

I've never seen that called as holding by duhO$U or scUM d-backs. LMFAO that this was an "obvious penalty" the way the secondary is called in this joke league. Kent state has 1 penalty for 5 yards - PSU has 7 penalties for 65 yards.... Amazing the amount of clean football these MAC teams play against PSU with the b1g clowns calling the game! Yeah, no holding by Kent despite the fact that they've only put up 66 yards of offense on 56 offensive plays.... Rolling my eyes.

 

[CJFisJoePaII]

Marched right down the field? They fumbled but got the fumble back luckily for them?

Yeah matched right down the field dumbass - they went all the way to 5 yard line, then lost 20 yards on fumble.... then scored in three plays from 27.
