The TV ref explained it perfectly. Blind side hits can be called on offense and defense.
Football GAMEDAY THREAD: Penn State versus Illinois
- Thread starter Richie O
- Start date
Again, it wasn't wrong--you dislike the rule
It was 100% intentional as well
I don't think this is real surprising. The line was too big--I still think we win by about 10
Illinois 1 penalty for 5 yards... PSU 3 for 45.... LMFAO. Amazing how clean these visiting teams play in Beaver Stadium with b1g clown crews - to date that would be a total of 5 penalties for 43 yards versus 17 penalties for 186 yards for PSU... .
Tom Allen was horrible as a coach at Indiana. I don’t know how he was hired as a DC. He doesn’t make any adjustments until halftime and that will kill this team this year IMO.
Yes. As the wr was within a foot of him.
Which is how someone would as a defender deal with a guard pulling.
That's how a defender reacts to a guy coming at you from the side.
Which is different from intentionally blocking a guy.
He saw a wr coming at him from the corner of his eye. Which is what offensive players do to block defenders when they run the ball.
Our defense isn't the issue.
Do you see the score?
This is Illinois. We scored 7 points.
You have to stop--it was 100% a penalty as explained--hate the rule and none of us are going to argue with you but the call was correct as much as you hate that reality
Just like Illinois fans are complaining about the intentional grounding call that was correct despite the rule being questionable.
7-7 at the half is fine--we'll probably win by 10
The opening drive by the defense wasn't great and they have to be more disciplined
The offense is just missing--the run game should be featured heavily on the opening drive

Flush this half in the toilet. What a disappointing effort on both sides. I’m totally unimpressed by Tom Allen. All games we have been sloppy and docile to start.
The line was way too big especially given the undisciplined manner in which this defense plays.
Unless he went for it and didn’t make it then we’d be reading how he never learns and he needs to quit looking at the analytics.
Agree, Rojas was getting to the football. There was an offensive player in his way and he ran him over. That what you do. Some of these guys never put on a helmet.
My only issue is him punting goes against his claim he uses analytics. I just want consistency. I'd have punted.
Letting ILL convert 3rd n long and extend drives doesn’t really help your offense. This D is really a problem
We have 4 sacks so far this year. That’s not very good considering who we’ve played. Illinois converted a 3rd and forever. Shouldn’t happen.
Not worried unless the play calling doesn't stick to dominating with the run.
Again--then argue the rule
None of us have said we like the rule--we just understand it as it exists today
AS much money that is being spent on this program year after year it is surprising that things never seem to change,
Agree. Unless this team vastly improves this is not a playoff team.
I’d be perfectly fine with the decision if we’d have gotten stopped. Sure, some oldenheimers would have cried, but no one cares about their opinion, anyway.
