Official PSU - Illinois Game Thread

This is a playoff offense with a playground defense.

 

[BobPSU92]

Our defense just sucks tonight. Total shit.

 

[SUPERTODD]

29 needs to sit and watch and get healthy. We are better off with 5 and 2 or 14 out there.

 

[lionroar88]

Reid looks aweful!

 

[Big 0]

Penn State defense is really starting to become a worry. Going to be shredded in B10 play if they keep this up.

 

[MaconNitt]

Reid looked Slow & Lost on that series

 

[SEPATOPTEN]

Nick. WTF.

 

[LMTLION]

We need 42+ pts to hang with osu.

 

[NittPicker]

Hey Pry. How about making some halftime adjustments before halftime?

 

[PSUcup1]

Right play by Scott to try to scoop it but he picked his head up before he totally had it. I'm fine with trying to make a play but he's gotta make sure he has it first.

Where you at, John Reid??

It’s never the right play to try and pick it up

 

[Uh Clem]

Second bad play by Reid in the last minute.

 

[Nittany_93]

Hoping we're still a second half team. As for next week, it's going to be a shootout.

 

[fkkkjm]

OSU is going to beat our balls off.

^^^^^^^^^^ Quote of the night. You win the Internet for the first half.

This is a playoff offense with a playground defense.

They really have against just average teams. True freshman QB here. This defense as it's playing so far this year isn't going to take them too far.

 

[ericstratton-rushchairman]

Good Lord we are not a very good football team.

 

[David1956]

John can't cut and break on his knee. I feel bad for him.

 

[Lavar5150]

Reid is a shell of himself

 

[psualt]

Reid looked like he was unhappy with Scott on the TD. Was there a mix up?

 

[PSU87]

We need 42+ pts to hang with osu.

+ for sure

 

[danvillenit]

Makes me wonder why 29 was a healthy scratch last week. Obviously not ready yet

 

[mjh218]

Ya Reid doesn’t look like his old self. The defense really doesn’t need to protect against throws longer than 10 yards. Hoping they figure it out soon.

Ps watch for the onside kick. If I were ILL I’d give it a shot

 

[Lavar5150]

Good Lord we are not a very good football team.

Not a very good defense I’ll give you

 

[Pocono Lion]

Reid needs to sit and Castro-Fields needs to play. He’s arguably been our best CB this year so far

 

[Uh Clem]

We are weak up the middle v the run and some pass coverage is suspect. Other than that, our defense is okay.

 

[Lion8286]

D sux

Hey @PennSt8er like your new handle.

 

[David1956]

Illinois is not a bad team. Quality runners who impress.

 

[CDLionFL]

It’s never the right play to try and pick it up

Until he's running with a convoy of white down the sideline for a 99-yard TD. Can't have it both ways.

 

[Southern_PSU_Lion]

Pry’s defense has gotten gashed for 3 years running, when it counts. Next week it will be steamrolled.

 

[Greg80]

I picked a bad week to stop smoking crack...

 

[PennStateNate]

Bonehead bringing it out

 

[Madsol]

Reid looked like he was unhappy with Scott on the TD. Was there a mix up?

As open as that guy was, you gotta think there was a mix up. But it's the 4th game of the year, why are we still seeing mixups?

 

[NittPicker]

Et tu, Hamler?

 

[83wuzme]

LB’s are nowhere. The middle of our defense looks like a giant hole.

 

[fem113]

Culture has officially been fixed. We are now an offensive team. Makes me miss Scrap.

 

[PennState_one]

OSU is going to beat our balls off.

nah... the offense will keep them in the game...

 

[ftlpsu]

They ran smash combo...if nick Scott was still there earlier don’t get that Td

 

[RickinDayton]

29 needs to sit and watch and get healthy. We are better off with 5 and 2 or 14 out there.

Red seems a step too slow @ this time. 2 yrs ago he would not have been beat like that. Not 100% and probably shouldn'T be plain in this tight red zone situations.

This teams reminds me of 1994 team. Great offense, questionable defense. Not confident in this defense.

 

[cntblvitsbutter]

I'm sorry Farmer needs to sit, and why does he keep lining up on the edge when they're gashing us up the middle?
