Official PSU - Indiana Game Thread

[step.eng69]

Indiana doesn’t have the horses for this one. Psu defense is legit. we go as far as the offense goes.

I agree Mr. Bio

 

[RU31trap]

I don’t want to get ahead of myself but right now the Nittany Lions are looking real good going into the Iowa game.

Where did I say it cost us a score???? It either was, or wasn't, a legal formation under the Rulebook and I'm pretty sure it was a legal formation as Strange converted himself into a RB (you can "Cover" a traditional TE lined up on LOS making them a OL, and an ineligible receiver, but you can't "Cover" a RB - a RB is ALWAYS an eligible receiver.). Yes, it does "Matter" if the b1g bozos have demonstrated yet again how they don't know the Rulebook and just f'ing make it up as they go along.

It’s not like a three page discussion on this board is going to change how the Big officials call the next game.

Ford has a spring in his step today

Totally agree. Ford showing some signs of life. Good to see. Maybe he’ll break off a big one.

I think you might be getting covered uncovered concepts confused with what the actual call was…they said it was uncovered but I think it had to do with not having 7 on LOS..think there is confusion all around…review the tape and then report back to settle this…

Would really be nice to get some points on this opening drive of the 2nd half

Hopefully the 2021 version of Clifford will replace the 2020 version we saw in the first half.

 

[WestSideLion]

I don’t usually chime in during a game, however.
Third and one in first quarter and Clifford goes under center and hands off to a RB running down hill for first down.
Two other third and ones in first half, and pass. The last one a fade route when you are around 4 minutes remaining in half.
Imagine getting points before half and getting the ball to start second half. 🤷🏻‍♂️
I think it says volumes about the OL.
Just my halftime $0.02.

OL

The OL is part of it. For sure. But the inside running game has been effective. They’ve just gone away from it.

Noah Cain = Troy Tulowitzki

great but always hurt

 

[NittanyChris]

With the way our defense is playing, any points at all on this drive and the game is practically over.

 

[ftlpsu]

He just doesn’t want to PIN the ball!

 

[Tom McAndrew]

 

[Shadow99]

Wait, did TV just cause us to miss a play (most of the 2nd down play)?

 

[Tom McAndrew]

 

[PSU87]

Good grief....3rd and short

 

[CJFisJoePaII]

No kidding it wasn’t called on Scruggs. The point is he was as deep as Strange. Either way there is a penalty there because one can’t be in the backfield and a guy lined up just as deep be on the line.

Now Scruggs was lined up "just as deep" as Strange... lmao - keep making shit up - Strange was clearly lined up deeper than the RT. Beyond that, the penalty called was not on Scruggs for being illegally lined up off the LOS.

 

[okinburg1]

Would like to take this time to remind all listeners that punting is winning

 

[colt21]

Stuffed on 3rd and 2 again

 

[ftlpsu]

I am fine with that approach by Indiana….gets us ready for next week and the other guys opportunistic Defense.

 

[tlbakernc]

That was pathetic!!!

 

[We Are . . .]

I hate 3rd downs.

 

[psu00]

At some point we have to quit holding back our playbook.

If I had a dollar over the years every time someone suggested PSU was holding back on the playbook for the following week……… .

 

[Tom McAndrew]

disappointing play on 3rd down. PSU has to punt on the opening drive of the 2nd half

 

[Madsol]

C'mon Lee, put your head down and hit the hole. Dancing around.

 

[Harrisburg Dave]

I get it….they’re happy as hell. And Levis is a hero already around here.

Why do some find it necessary to be upset by his success?

 

[Lion Son/Husband/Father]

C'mon Lee, put your head down and hit the hole. Dancing around.

Yeah really

 

[Sooner Lion]

IMHO best punter in college. Have to Franklin a lot of credit for being in game changing punters.

Stuffed on 3rd and 2 again

Way too many Happy Birthday tweets and not nearly enough kicks in their ass.

 

[BeaverLion]

God this offense is pitiful.

 

[jmorovich]

Indiana…..

 

[Nittany18]

Really need a running game.

 

[Big 0]

Run game is just as bad as the first couple of games. First half was an aberration.

 

[Player2BNamedL8r]

Letting IU hang around…seems like a similar formula that they used last year.

 

[BeaverLion]

We are ages behind Bama and Georgia. Hope we find something for next week or tit may be painful.

 

[b&w1987]

Gag on 3rd and short once again.

 

[WestSideLion]

Looks like Lee made the wrong read. He had the first to the left side. It just seems like the offense is often making one wrong read in the running game.

 

[Hoosierfan1901]

Why can’t we have nice things for football...good luck for the rest of the game!

 

[AWS1022]

Why do some find it necessary to be upset by his success?

Because he would be a failure if he was putting up the numbers here that he has put up at Kentucky. Many of our “fans” can be happy for him, but not for our own guys.

 

[psuro]

SEC would have just called intentional

Yup

What kinds of “ nice things” are you referring to?
