Football GAMEDAY THREAD: Penn State versus Oregon in 2024 B1G Championship

Agreed--overall it's fine. We should be 6 but maybe we're 7. Won't fall further than that now
This wasn’t time for a throw like that and we don’t have the receivers. Oregons defense was gassed
You watch them jump Notre dame over us. Just watch.
I'm OK with looking downfield there but that's not Chris Godwin and he wasn't open. Just drive down the damn field like you have the entire game, even with your stupid play calls mixed in.
You haven't stopped them all day.. You know you have one shot and its the 2 point conversion. One ****ing PI call would have been nice though.
Not even sure why I bother watching James in big games
Do people not understand that's what he was supposed to do there?
The call was a 50/50 ball
Offense played their hearts out, defense and coaches shit the bed
Defense terribly prepared...came out sluggish and poor coaching decisions late in the game. Another day at the office.
Fitting to lose the game on a bomb intended for a wide receiver.
I don't understand the call. Why go for the bomb and score quickly when if you do all you're going to do is bring the Oregon offense back onto the field?
This game had to be about POSSESSION. We did not have the discipline for that -- players nor coaches.
I will give them credit for effort. I thought everyone played hard.
The team has some promise. Could make it to the semifinals with the same effort and a little better preparation.

If they do and we play Indiana in the first round I'm not going to be angry
Run the ball, they never stopped our running game.
Harrison was double-covered all the way. It wasn't a complicated coverage. Allar just can't throw it up like that.
Yes...it was a stupid, horrible, par for the course, playcall. Not Drew's fault.
Franklin chokes so bad in big games. It’s crazy.
He wasn't doubled--the safety was nowhere near being a factor
The design was a 50/50 ball
We have the dumbest fan base if you can't comprehend what that call was
There's always a sense of desperation with James in big games that results in failure most of the time.
If you are going to throw a 50/50 ball then throw it to Warren. Wallace gave pathetic effort on that pass.
You simply don’t make that throw. Throw to the underneath receivers or throw it away.
I agree--I hate the call--but the call was to Wallace and he gave him a shot
Exactly. That was dialed-up. Don't blame Allar. This is CJF. Remember USC loss in 2016. Throw the long ball for INT to lose game. CJF can't just move ball down the field and use clock. He is in love with stats "explosive plays". He has explosive sh*ts in big games.
He is TOLD to make that throw--that is the correct read--they're trying to strike quick because we might need two score
How do you not comprehend that's what AK wanted him to do--Wallace just got out battled
People here talk up Trace all the time and that's all he did while he was a starter
Should say there's no reasonable justification to drop PSU. There's a cabal out there waiting for any justification to elevate ND and OSU above PSU.
Didn't happen though. Let's see what the talking heads say and CFP committee does.
What does the AP and Coaches do?
1. Oregon
2. UGA?
3. TX
4. PSU
That doesn't feel exactly right, but probably what will happen

Our offense scored 37 vs Oregon. Our defense gave up 45. Very unhappy with the 2nd and 1.
Seeding? I think this secures #6. You play the #1 team down the wire, you don't get jumped by ND.

This x 1000. Both Singleton and Allen over 100 yards. Plenty of time and 2 timeouts.
If the defense could make any stops, Franklin makes better decisions, or refs call an even game, then PSU wins that game.
Two horrendous throws for picks was the difference. For all JFs faults, those throws can’t happen to beat the number 1 team in the nation.
There are games when the better team wins.
That was the case tonight.
I also believe national perception of this PSU team improved with this performance.
