"Want to thank everyone for coming out and covering Penn State football. Those were two of the better teams in the league today."
And, after he says that usual stuff, the fan boys melt over this grifter.

Punter not only moved toward outside rush, but took 2 full steps into it. Horrible.
Because JF wants showy and looking fun rather than being a hard nosed coach. He doesn't realize or isn't capable of understanding how to build a championship style offense. We don't have an identity.
I hate Franklin so much. I know. We are lucky to have him. Who are we going to get who is better? He recruits… Take the money he is making, hire a younger coach, and hammer NIL. It’s the only way we are ever going to get to a place where we can compete for the playoffs consistently.
If we can’t beat Minni we won’t beat a playoff team and we don’t deserve to go.
That Minnesota TD is exactly the reason I keep harping about discipline and preparation. Back in the day Penn State teams were always highly regarded for their discipline. We often did not have the athletes, especially in the defensive secondary, but they knew where they were supposed to be. Now we have the opposite problem. Just can't put it together.
The Specil Teams coach needs to go. And I mean after this game. That is poor coaching that your punter would even take steps toward the oncoming rush.
Terrible call against Minnesota. Now we are going to have to put an asterisk next to a close win.
But that's also on the special team's coach. He has to tell the punter that in his own end he HAS to get the punt off as fast as possible and let the coverage guys do their job.
Notice how much better the offense is when we don't sub in Beau and we let Drew read the field?
He even ran it well

Allar's "awful" first half was 14/18 159 with 2 TD (one rushing)--at least one drop
Yes, he can't take a couple of those sacks but he's not the problem

Perhaps we should routinely run a two minute offense. No bullsh1t trick plays. Use your superior athletes.
