we have no awareness to snap the ball quickly

 

[rmem]

Matt Millen is such a terrible announcer.

 

[quincy1]

There is absolutely no awareness by the coaching staff

 

[Tom McAndrew]

Dotson with a drop ... throw was a tad low, but he should have had it, and would have gotten the 1st down

 

[CoolBean]

Matt Millen is such a terrible announcer.

He is not here today, LOL

 

[djr4rebs]

Clifford had no chance there, Illinois brought the house and Holmes missed his blitz pickup block.

I think Fries blocked air. Holmes took the outside guy, which would have been correct block if Fries blocked the closer guy.

Matt Millen is such a terrible announcer.

That’s not MM. I think it’s Robert smith

 

[AtlantaLion]

Matt Millen is such a terrible announcer.

I believe Millen was at Wisconsin today.

 

[PSUcup1]

Dotson should catch that but that was a terrible pass

 

[AWS1022]

Why didn't they hurry up and snap before there could be a review?!?!

Because Illinois called a time out, but by all means, blame Franklin.

 

[jbenedict]

Our O linemen are very nice people.

 

[AWS1022]

Hike the f n ball before they can call TO there.

Why? They weren’t reviewing it.

 

[BostonNit]

That’s not MM. I think it’s Robert smith

He does sound like him though.

 

[GregInPitt]

Matt Millen is such a terrible announcer.

Yep, but Robert Smith is not quite as bad, even though they do sound similar.....

 

[TN Lion]

I believe Millen was at Wisconsin today.

he was terrible there

[CoolBean]

Second straight 3 and out for PSU

 

[Big 0]

If they are going to run, why don’t they just bring in Levis.

 

[Pocono Lion]

I think Fries blocked air. Holmes took the outside guy, which would have been correct block if Fries blocked the closer guy.

Holmes attempted to take the inside guy, #5, who made the sack, and did a lousy job doing it.

 

[ILLINOISLION]

That's a good average. But it seems like he has become inconsistent after having a few boomers earlier in the season.

Nice kick just now, 44 yds no return.

 

[MacNit07]

BS. That was perfectly acceptable given the circumstances. People just need something to co
Plain about because they didn’t get points.

Why was it acceptable? No, they should not need the points. But doing the right thing should always be the standard. Saving the 2 timeouts for next year? Pathetic. You can watch a lot of football and not see such consistently bad clean co management...like some sort of a bad joke!

Patience, my young Jedi!

They will. Believe me, I'm sure they will!🤣

 

[Tom McAndrew]

 

[VaLion'92]

7 consecutive stops made by the Penn State defense.

 

[GregInPitt]

Anyone else notice that Ellies has seem to have gotten more snaps as the season progressed? Gotta hope we have a DT that will provide a spark in 2021....

 

[PSUcup1]

Very nice play Brooks

 

[djr4rebs]

Stout seems to punt very poor when we are backed up deep. Perhaps coached to kick it quick, not allow a block?

 

[psugisher]

Are we in the close out the game super conservative offense time of the game or can we get something going?

Oh good lord.

 

[Cowbell Man]

A 35 yard FG attempt with 5 seconds left on the clock seems like pretty good clock management to me.

When it’s not on 4th down and you took two timeouts into the locker room with you it’s bad management. It is also a consistent issue.

We are playing a bad team so it seems to not matter. But it does matter.

 

[BudatPSU]

If they are going to run, why don’t they just bring in Levis.

They want to keep his skills under wraps and use him in later game. Nobody will expect him to run.

 

[jbenedict]

Our players are dancing on sideline. Jimmy Jimmy what the hell is going on?

 

[CoolBean]

Cute

 

[canuckhal]

Nice to see the players continue having fun. Dancing on the sidelines. This season has turned around nicely.

 

[GregInPitt]

Are we in the close out the game super conservative offense time of the game or can we get something going?

Yep, if Franklin's just going to sit on this lead he should tell us so we can do something else.....

 

[BFPSU]

Are we in the close out the game super conservative offense time of the game or can we get something going?

If the past few games are any indicator...it’s about time for the old Levis 22 carries in a row to end it offense....

Not every thing is going to go perfectly. We might have gotten one more play off, maybe. You’re making too big of a deal out of it, but it’s easy to make the calls after the fact.

 

[WDLion]

He is not here today, LOL

Doesn't matter to some.

 

[1000_OaksLion]

When 51 went down he got a lot more reps and he's making the most of it.

 

[PSUBrewer]

Because Illinois called a time out, but by all means, blame Franklin.

I was putting more of the onus on Clifford to recognize the situation, calm down Nancy.
