HandjoCommando doesn't know what the F he's talking about yet again. A Fair Catch signal is when you're hand an arm are put straight up above your head and wained side-to-side. At a minimum, the side-to-side signal must be made above the shoulder. In this case, PSU returner's arm never goes above his shoulder AND it most certainly was never waived side-to-side. Ridiculous call especially given that it wasn't made during the play and created out of thin air at the Oregon Coach's request.

I'd be in camp 2 if not for JF's horrible record against top 10 teams.
He was told to throw that. 100% he was told they wanted to take a shot deep on 2nd and short and to give your guy a chance. That's the design. He wasn't seeing if he was open. He had the 1v1 coverage as the safeties took away the middle.
What is happening
What should the coaches have done to put them in a position to win. The go for two is the only thing I got.
The ball wasn't perfect. Most 50/50 balls aren't. Wallace hesitated on the route as it looked like he misjudged it
Hate the play call but it was the design
Only because they didn’t make it….so they lost by 8 instead of 7….oh the horror!
I think we earned 6 but if 7 is Indiana I'll get over it. Especially if Georgia is without Beck
I just want to say this. I don't see how you can blame Allar on this loss. His last TD was fabulous.
The D was pretty horrid for most of the game. The refs did us no favors. And some mistakes by Franklin.

Lol. They probably relay the plays calls in and at the end they say " you gotta throw this one!"
They did call it a catch, then changed it after the the play was already going which caused a bunch of confusion.
Yes the defense couldn’t get any stops. But it doesn’t have to be an either or. Defense can be bad and QB throw two bad throws.
Seriously what is happening
His first read is Wallace. Wallace had 1v1 coverage with the safety staying in the middle. Drew read that correctly which results in a 50/50 ball. Your WR is responsible for ensure that its incomplete as the worst case. Nothing was wrong here other than we can hate the call.
They moved the freakin spot back 8 yards.
Are you telling me Franklin could not see or comprehend this???
No team in the country could beat Oregon indoors. Just isn’t happening.
They were in a hurry up offense, so he thought they were going after a catch. You do realize things look different and happen quickly real time from the sidelines, right?
The D also gets a few more stops if holding and OPI is called.
It’s just gut punch after gut punch. Even the toughest PSU fans get worn down.
37-45 against a team with serious play money 💰 which had more weapons on offense. I'll take it. Maybe we will get another shot at them a little later.
Yeah to hand the ball off with his dead arm because their backup got his helmet knocked off and was concussed. He couldn’t even pick his arm up.
He couldn't lift his arm though
He handed the ball off with his lef hand
So you really think that you know that much more than Franklin? Really? Don’t you think if it was as simple as calling a timeout, Franklin would have done it? Are you really that arrogant about your football knowledge?
We will disagree. Absolutely not in that situation. You can do that when plenty of time left. Oregon was getting absolutely brutalized by our RBs. They were gassed up front. OL played hell of a game. This is where JoePa had it right. Keep doing it until they stop you.
Allen - 14 for 124
Singleton - 10 for 105
Mic down.
Makes no sense. Gabriel is the king of short passes. Being indoors does not suddenly make them more formidable than outdoors.
Yes he’s a retarded in-game coach. You haven’t realized this by now?
Unless it was a complete pass, then it’s a great call. Hindsight coaching is easy.
