Football GAMEDAY THREAD: Penn State vs. Central Michigan
- Thread starter Richie O
- Start date
I really think Kaytron needs more carries than Nick today...he is the road grater that can run physical between the tackles. JF salivates for big plays/runs, when sometimes establishing an attitude is what you need. Our 3rd down offense is 13th in the B1G, which is in large part that the OL is still a major work in progress.
Dylan had a nice position by position breakdown and the amount of stars they came in with....and obviously that doesn't always translate. But, I believe the starting OL for PSU each had 4 stars...at some point you have to look at scheme or position coach...or both.
Penn State is back on the board, Kaytron Allen with some terrific vision finds the hole, and the Nittany Lions are now up 21-14.
CMU QB Daniel Richardson has had some really nice ball placement today. Chippewas have had some solid catches mixed in w/ their drops as well.
Johnny Dixon with some terrific coverage comes down with a big time interception. Stops a good CMU drive and Penns state takes over at their own 19-yard line.
Play is under review.

Clifford missing some easy throws here today. That last incomplete pass to Tinsley would've been for a big gain.
When Clifford gets cold he gets ice cold. Jekyll and Hide act is getting old.
Penn State's drive fizzles at at the 39 yard line and Sander Sahaydak will attempt a 56-yard field goal.
Unfortunately, this is typical Clifford. Inconsistent, and too much bad mixed in with the good, particularly for a 6th year senior. Don’t think it’s gonna change at this point.
I think "that ugly first half" sums it up
This team has real trouble coming out to play a full game. They just don’t have the killer instinct like Ohio St or other top programs generally have. It’s been a long-standing problem for years that never gets fixed.
Add to that the D only half heartedly playing and Clifford’s hot/ cold play and you get these type games. This is how they lose a game every year to an Illinois, Indiana type team.

Kaytron Allen with a nice run for Penn State but it's coming back for a holding. Sal Wormley gets called for the holding.
Not surprised in the least. But, I do like getting Kaytron the bulk today.
The XP was blocked. Second time this season that has occurred for Penn State, also happened against Ohio.
I missed who it was but seems like that blocked XP came from the RG side again which gave Penn State issues against Ohio.
