Football James Franklin's gusty decisions help seal 26-25 victory for Penn State

[PSUWrestlingFanSince2011]

You mean the play call that’s worked every time all year long?

Yeah that was pathetic, stretch the ball out

 

[LandoComando]

smh at Illinois

 

[PurposePitch]

Welp, we usually wait until 3rd down and long to let the other team exploit us with the slant ...

 

[YeOldeCup]

Sleepwalking again.

 

[RickinDayton]

smh at Illinois

Tackling issues continue.

 

[PennState_one]

Gotta get that killer instinct earlier in these games.

 

[CJFisJoePaII]

No holding there - LMAO.

 

[Onionbelly]

Terrible

 

[fastlax16]

worst possible start

 

[RickinDayton]

Tackling issues continue.

I can't watch this right now. Tackling is atrocious.

 

[LandoComando]

These missed tackles still haven't been cleaned up

 

[Dylan Callaghan-Croley]

Gophers go for it on fourth and one and Darius Taylor breaks a nice run into the redzone. Minnesota has Penn State on their heels this drive.

 

[pennstatefan111]

Why the hell does this team sleepwalk in the first quarter?

 

[YeOldeCup]

Jeebus Franklin. How can you be so unprepared? Both O and D get an "F" on the opening drives.

 

[PurposePitch]

I'm waiting for @CJFisJoePaII to completely snap and just start yelling about missed Offensive Pass Interference calls on running plays by Minny.

 

[LandoComando]

We all watched Indiana march on Ohio State early--stop overreacting to a drive, a quarter or a half
They have to clean things up but we're fine

 

[mnuccio2]

I can't watch this right now. Tackling is atrocious.

Not that anyone cares but I’ve seen enough. I’m going to put up my Christmas lights instead

 

[fastlax16]

I really hate how this d starts games despite the overall stats for the season

 

[AvgUser]

Fabulous start
two plays and they can’t get 4 inches.
Then let UM walk all over them.

 

[RickinDayton]

Jeebus Franklin. How can you be so unprepared?

He needs to get in some faces right now!!!

 

[Onionbelly]

I know PSU has a good record this year and can still win this game.

But I am so tired of Franklin. I want a new coach.

 

[LandoComando]

The good news is now we hopefully open up the offense

 

[republion]

I usually don’t post during games or over react. But if someone put a gun to my head and said, “who is going to win this game? If you are wrong, I pull the trigger!”

I’m answering Minnesota.

 

[PennState_one]

I'm confident the good guys will run away from them before to long.

 

[NittanyLionRoar]

I don’t know, I just haven’t been impressed with Tom Allen. It’s amazing we haven’t dropped a game we shouldn’t have this year with how poorly they tackle and run themselves out of position.

 

[Dylan Callaghan-Croley]

I think Penn State is going to be fine but that was a pretty terrible start.

They’re Tackling?

 

[PSUWrestlingFanSince2011]

Good job Trey

 

[Safety Blitz]

Boys in the white hats better get their act together or it could turn into one of those days.

 

[christoph]

Quite a contrast from watching Ohio State

 

[lazydave841]

It seems like our defense is always bad on opening drives. Poor tackling on every opportunity.

Playoff in our reach and we look like we'd get run off the field by anybody with a pulse on that series.

Sigh. 2nd half team.

 

[PSUWrestlingFanSince2011]

I think Penn State is going to be fine but that was a pretty terrible start.

U sure?

 

[Dylan Callaghan-Croley]

Quite a contrast from watching Ohio State

Ohio State's first 20 minutes were not too much better than this, to be honest. Ohio State didn't really get it going till the second half.

This team lacks urgency. You can see it at the start of games. It starts with the coaching staff.

 

[Dylan Callaghan-Croley]

U sure?

Yes.

 

[KCLion]

Quite a contrast from watching Ohio State

You mean when they went 3 and out and then let the other team drive the field?

 

[junior1]

This team lacks urgency. You can see it at the start of games. It starts with the coaching staff.

why must we always start out like this?

 

[PSUWrestlingFanSince2011]

why must we always start out like this?

Besides OSU lol

 

[fastlax16]

2 downs to gain a couple feet...

 

[LandoComando]

U sure?

We're down 7--relax
We've seen this countless times
We're the better team--we start slow--it will be fine
Although you thought Cignetti proved people wrong up 7-0 so....just relax please
