Official PSU - Illini 2020 Game Thread

Wait....

It's December 19th and I'm watching a Penn State home game. Latest home game ever? By...a lot??

3rd all time home game in Dec, PSU was 1-1

Peter's uniform for Illinois is way too nice and clean. Let's see if PSU's D can "soil" that clean shirt up some more. 🤣

O'Neill doesn't screw us? I guess it was too blatant for even him to ignore/screw up

If the game was in doubt, you can bet he would have screwed us!

So you are good with just continuing to make the same mistakes?...you would think the lesson would have been learned after the Indiana fiasco?...but not even close...it will continue to cost us close games...can’t even get it right with no pressure on...just bad

Get it right according to you....stick to coaching your pee wee team.

Game’s getting a little chippy, both ways.

9 consecutive defensive stops by PSU, including 7 3-and-outs and 1 turnover.

It's scary to think about the talent we had at TE to start the year. PF definitely the best passing option, but Strange and Johnson are proving to be quite good as well. Both are better blockers than PF as well.

Look forward to an expanded playbook next year. We have seemed to get away from the 2 TE running game. I can only suspect it's intentionally saving that portion of the playbook.

IMO the TE play has been better with PF out and not playing.

Neither QB has any feel in the pocket

 

[quincy1]

Can someone explain why, with the game out of reach, we are still being subjected to levis runs up the middle, and not seeing the 3rd string qb ?

 

[CoolBean]

PSU QB hang on the ball too long

 

[green2623]

Is he begging again?

Correct...9 stops (8 punts, 1 turnover).
I was mistaken on the 3-and-outs-- there were 6 and not 7. WhooHoo! 😁

Coaches think he needs a few more reps, that he has not had enough yet.

I think SC forced some throws to PF. And our offense was just terrible from week 3-5. However, like you said, our winning started with our improved blocking and that was aided by the 2 TE set minus PF.

That last snap the entire middle of the defense was completely vacated. Levis should have recognized that.

Reading the Freeh Report during media timeouts!

Smith Vilbert sighting

Wow, Clifford and Franklin 🤔

 

[Nittanyfarmer]

Somehow, I don't think that sideline conversation between Clifford and Franklin was about making reservations at the Tavern Restaurant when the game is over. Wonder what that was all about?

Maybe exchanging onion dip recipes?

Franklin was pointing at the video board a bit too.

Whether Clifford is the Blue or the White QB this spring?

Franklin was having a similar talk with Levis maybe 2-3 minutes earlier.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

Levis doing his SaSa imitation. LOL

 

[Obliviax]

Whoa! Sequon esque

 

[tlbakernc]

What’s going on the Franklin? Chased down Clifford for a heated discussion?

 

[BudatPSU]

Levi’s might have a second sport in the high hurdles.

A good coach makes better players, a great coach makes better people

Time for some good old-fashioned smash mouth PSU football.

Am I the only one who thinks
Levis could be a good line backer ?
