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

[LandoComando]

Lando, you’re an asshat. I forgot more about football than you’ll ever know. You’re a walking goof.

You don't know anything about the game if you want to bench Allar
It's maybe the dumbest idea ever but maybe you're just that dumb--maybe Kaspy created a new username

MN converts 3rd and 10........ Saw that coming.

PSU makes their QB look like Aaron Rodgers...

The way this team is playing they would get smoked if they made the playoff. Same issues for years that Franklin never fixes- poor tackling, slow starts, inability to pick up crunch yards with the run game.

 

[frnkwms1212]

PU...so far. They are not up for this game.

 

[Bardo]

Lando, you’re an asshat. I forgot more about football than you’ll ever know. You’re a walking goof.

James, give us a chance to win, put Pribula in please.

 

[LandoComando]

I bet you this is how OSU fans felt for a little while today as well.

No--they were moving the ball and only allowed one drive
We're still fine and people are overreacting but we're playing very poorly

 

[fastlax16]

held and still got the tfl

 

[fastlax16]

ok another 3rd and long

 

[m.knox]

Playoffs??? LOL!! Duke’s Mayo Bowl.

With a dozen opt outs.

 

[LandoComando]

At least the interior DL showed up

 

[PurposePitch]

We need a full stop here.

 

[GregInPitt]

5 ran wide.open on that play..Tried to.force it into Warren

Franklin seems like he's more concerned about Warren getting awards than taking what a defense is willing to give PSU....

 

[LandoComando]

We can lose today and be absolutely fine--we aren't losing but can

 

[Dylan Callaghan-Croley]

Big win for the defense in keeping Minnesota to a FGA on this drive.

 

[fastlax16]

Interesting play call on 3rd and 9.

 

[WaffleShopper]

We can't break tackles and we can't tackle. That has to be some kind of practice issue, right?

 

[LandoComando]

Now--establish the run (without the nonsense) and attack them deep--simple

 

[GregInPitt]

James, give us a chance to win. Forget about Pribula on the short to gains and forcing the ball to Warren, and have Allar open up the offense and throw to the whole field with that big arm....

 

[fastlax16]

We can't break tackles and we can't tackle. That has to be some kind of practice issue, right?

What happens in practice when the stoppable force meets the movable object?

 

[Nostraduzzi]

With a dozen opt outs.

At least.

 

[PennState_one]

I have no doubt much of the fan base was not happy tho lol

 

[maxoscar]

Offense with it's usual slow starting first quarter. Combined with the usual poor first quarter tackling on D..... Must have 4 or 5 missed tackles on first Minny drive....

Loss of Donkoh seems pretty big. Rucci hasn't done a very good job when he's played. Donkoh sees to have a chronic knee issue - maybe he gets surgery this off season.

Horrible tackling.

 

[LandoComando]

James, give us a chance to win. Forget about Pribula and have Allar open up the offense and throw to the whole field with that big arm....

This--just stop the nonsense--the gadgets aren't needed--attack them

 

[j-buff]

We need to wake up our this season is over, let’s face if we loos today this a embarassing for us

 

[fastlax16]

I have no doubt much of the fan base was not happy tho lol

They were all screaming about the penalties.

 

[LandoComando]

I have no doubt much of the fan base was not happy tho lol

Probably not--same overreaction here saying we're going to lose
We're far from "going to lose" but, unlike with Ohio State, there's real concern--tackling and AK's playcalling

 

[PennState_one]

They were all screaming about the penalties.

No doubt about it.

 

[Crusher1950]

Tell you one thing if we make the playoffs and must play Georgia we will get drilled by 30

 

[mnuccio2]

We can lose today and be absolutely fine--we aren't losing but can

Seek help quickly

 

[LandoComando]

We need to wake up our this season is over, let’s face if we loos today this a embarassing for us

We lose today we're still safely in the playoff
Almost everyone with 2 losses has a bad loss

 

[Safety Blitz]

The natives are starting to get a little restless.

 

[LandoComando]

Seek help quickly

You realize Ole Miss lost today, yes?

 

[YeOldeCup]

Horrible tackling.

... and poor coverage.

 

[fastlax16]

feed tyler

 

[LandoComando]

That--right there--attack them--stop with the gadgets

 

[lazydave841]

I couldn't see the routes, but we typically seem to run long-developing routes ... often times with things like rubs happening well down field ... not much in the way of quick slants, ins or outs.

We talk about the bad WRs, but I think at least some of it is on our playbook.

They are dropping into zone every snap. Throw short. Throw in between the defenders. Run the ball.

We seemingly have our game plan and adhere until the 2nd half.

 

[fastlax16]

that's the difference between nick and saquon. Saquon is still running on that.

 

[LandoComando]

And back to Beau--f***** pathetic--prevents us from establishing any rhythm.

 

[GregInPitt]

Nice run by Singleton, but he rarely makes a defender miss. The Minny RB has already make a half of PSU's D each miss a tackle.

 

[PSUWrestlingFanSince2011]

AK made it to the game

 

[LandoComando]

Second and short--another gimmick
