That was historically bad offense. I’ll bet we’ve had better O stats in a shut out.
Football GAMEDAY THREAD -- Penn State vs. Ohio State

I'm not happy at all. I just hope people, like you, shut up and listen to me now instead of pretending I'm an idiot but you won't because you can't admit when you're wrong.
Yep...im buying him a copy of coaching for dummies. There are lots of his examples in it on what not to do.
Yeah they have a decent shot against Michigan with that D but they will still lose because McCarthy > McCord and Harbaugh will again out physical them.
Unfortunately his great game plan was equally not matched from the offense
Marvin Harrison should be a top Heisman candidate. Georgia couldn't cover him and if he didn't get hurt the OSU wins that playoff game last year.
Yeah. Cause basic math is hard. Kick the XP and you are down 7. It's was just one more stupid decision in game with several by the dumb**** head coach.
Path to the playoff now becomes the win over Michigan, and the tiebreaker breaking right…three bigs games for that right now!
You could just admit you were wrong and all my concerns were shown to be valid. It's not that difficult.
Basic math tells you going for two is the obvious decision…unfortunately, too many coaches and fans can’t comprehend “basic math”
Dude, love your thinking but my prediction vs scUM just changed to a big fat Loss.
So what do you want to do? What’s the answer? How should all fans react to a loss? Oh no, the world is ending…we lost a game.
Yes. The common predictions before season seemed to me that the big 3 would each have 1 loss to each other. Unfortunately we are the first down. 😪
No it wasnt....the only call dumber wqs 4 and 3 from your own 40 with 7 mons to go.
Wonder how many of them he has. I bet his office would be full of them if he kept them all.
You're just being childish. It's okay that your bias blinds you. You now know I'm smarter than you. You knew that prior but now you can't dispute it
Every team now goes for 2 when down 14. It’s not just a dumb Franklin thing.
Quinn Ewers has 2 of these types of games a season and many on here worship him. Agree with your measured takes on Allar - he needs some difference makers outside for a start
This is easily my favorite post on this blog in a decade. The wr passes and flea flickers would have made drubk youth football coaches blush.
boy do I agree with that. The way our defense was playing we might have gotten the ball back. As it was we gave them the ball on our 43 yard line. Worked out ok since they missed the fg, but i didn't think it was the right move.
As a serious gambler, I’ll tell you that fans overreact to wins/losses way too much (from a future/predictive standpoint)…the chances of beating Michigan might have dropped by about 3% based on what we say today.
Explain the math behind it bring a bad decision to go for two…I’ll wait, then I can explain why it’s a good decision.
You must have taken the same remedial math class as Franklin. PSU had 12. OSU had 20. An extra point is 1 point. Which makes PSUs score 13.
If by some miracle they recovered the on side kick, and if hell froze over they scored a TD, that makes 19. Another XP makes it a tie game going into OT at 20 a piece. There was no damn reason to go for a much lower percentage 2 points. None.
The books says you go for 2 after the first TD then you can go for 2 after the second if you don't make it...if you're trying to win in regulation
That makes as much sense as punting in overtime. Whoever wrote that chapter in "the book" is a damn idiot.
I don't disagree. I think teams should be playing for OT but the statistics say that's the best way to win.
I expected a boneheaded call….that seemed like the first big one. Just playing off your previous post
