Pinegar misses the FG.

 

[psrurock]

Replay should correct this, it looked good to me? Did I see something wrong

I can never tell so I'm no help

 

[Dylan Callaghan-Croley]

Pinegar obviously needs to make that but should’ve been flagged.

I thought it was wide.

 

[Nittany18]

Same boring music and same sleepy offense. At least the defense is good.

 

[KCLion]

I thought it was wide.

It was

 

[CJFisJoePaII]

PSU fortunate they weren't called for PI - shoulder grab was early.

 

[j-buff]

It was wide

 

[CJFisJoePaII]

Pinegar obviously needs to make that but should’ve been flagged.

Definitely, defender is not allowed to take a running start behind LOS and jump. Announcer made some lame comment about not touching anyone so it's not a foul..... That is not the rule - the rule says you can't take a running start, you must be at LOS and jump vertically.... or attempt to rush.

 

[Nittany18]

Is it Clifford or the receivers that stink? I never can tell.

 

[Nittany18]

Maybe is the o-line? They’ve stunk since 2010.

 

[Dylan Callaghan-Croley]

Is it Clifford or the receivers that stink? I never can tell.

A little bit of both. There's just not a difference-maker at wide receiver beyond Tinsley but Clifford isn't fautless either.

It’s the line

 

[KCLion]

It’s the line

Disagree in this instance / he’s had time

 

[Biffkin]

Nice start on offense. Somebody please tell Clifford to stay in the pocket, step up and deliver the ball. He's got happen feet today.

as usual penn state offense hasn't shown up yet

 

[CJFisJoePaII]

No holding last 2 plays - what a joke. (On completed pass and then 1st down of this series).

 

[Hotshoe]

Stop. We're averaging 36 points per game.

 

[Hotshoe]

tOSU gave up more points at home against Michigan than we did at Michigan.

 

[Dylan Callaghan-Croley]

You may have hard this before but Nick Singleton is fast.

 

[BudatPSU]

You may have hard this before but Nick Singleton is fast.

And quick

 

[Nittany18]

Wow!! Great run Sean.

 

[CJFisJoePaII]

Allen ran way too upright on that 3rd Down run - no idea what he was thinking. He's got to lower his pads on that run and take on the tackler.

 

[Hotshoe]

This team has a legitimate purpose in each game. Establish the run. They're doing that now. Be patient. It's coming. It's coming with backups.

 

[Dylan Callaghan-Croley]

Which wide receiver would you throw to?

 

[Hotshoe]

You're welcome.

 

[Dylan Callaghan-Croley]

TOUCHDOWN PENN STATE

Sean Clifford finds Theo Johnson to put Penn State up 6-0 with the XP pending.

 

[BudatPSU]

Wide open

 

[Dylan Callaghan-Croley]

Career total touchdown No.96 for Sean Clifford on that 11-yard touchdown pass to Theo Johnson.

Penn State 7
Michigan State 0

 

[CJFisJoePaII]

Nice blitz pick-up by Singleton on Touchdown pass.

You keep this up, I might renew!

 

[GregInPitt]

Absolutely and some who partake today may return. For example, I would be surprised if names such as Effner, Ellis, Tarburton, and Wilson didn't return next season.

PSU may not have the scholarships available for any of them to come back depending on how the 2023 class finishes and what the coaches feel they need to do in the transfer portal.

 

[Hotshoe]

Bama has given up 14 to Auburn. Holy sheep dip!

 

[junior1]

Stop. We're averaging 36 points per game.

am I wrong?

 

[Dylan Callaghan-Croley]

Penn State with 109 yards of total offense in that first quarter to Michigan State's 44. Nittany Lions already with 82 rushing yards on 12 carries.

 

[Hotshoe]

Oregon St. is giving Oregon all they want. Leading, 10-7.

 

[Hotshoe]

am I wrong?

Yes.

 

[Hotshoe]

am I wrong?

Understand, Penn State is establishing the run, it takes time. Michigan did the same today. Games are won in the 3rd and 4th qtr.
