300+ yards the first half. Great offense. No reason to bitch about that.

 

[herrli]

he's honoring Mark Allen

THX I woke up missed the beginning and was wondering what was going on Good for him just seemed odd as I had heard nothing about it

 

[Tom McAndrew]

SIAP: Who is #97 playing DE for Nits?

Shaka Toney is wearing 97 to honor Buchholz

 

[Wesauking Lion]

Lion needs to stay off the field. Its not a secret.

OSU should be excited.. down 6... It cant get much better for them.. they are completely in it... we missed a fg... fumble...

 

[fairfaxlion2]

If we went up 20-0 this game would have been over. As it is it’s a total toss up. Fully expect OSU to march down field after half

 

[ralphster]

Going to chase my Xanax with Pepto

 

[Safety Blitz]

Need a big stop to start the second.

 

[AWS1022]

We should be up by 2 full scores. This has the makings of another sad ending.

Hard to believe any of the posters on here were fans during the Paterno years when ALL of our games against good teams were like this.

 

[bdgan]

I never thought we would struggle this much on offense in the first half... Little disappointed in Ricky's play calling

Or the OL run blocking.

 

[scrivener]

Answering your own post? Interesting. But they don’t dominate other top 4 teams. That’s why those games are battles. I know Penn State should just walk all over everyone they play, but there are other good teams out there and OSU is really good.

Yes I agree

 

[PSU.:.]

I don't see PSU containing OSU offense this whole game. Very disspointing in the score since PSU has been dominated in everyway.
Gave my self lmelf migraine screaming when Hamler scored.

Still wouldn’t be over....20 points against a top 4 team is not a game ender especially at halftime.

 

[PennSt8er]

In Trace, we trust. The OSU D is already on the field too much. Do a stop on the opening series and I like our chances.

 

[PSURebel]

So the elite teams like Ohio State and Alabama and Clemson don't dominate other fronts? Yes they do and if we want to be elite eventually have to rise up at this position

How would you rate the Ohio State offensive line tonight? Do you see improvement over last year?

Debating about another Jack...

 

[okinburg1]

2nd half recipe for victory:
1) NO LION
2) Keep blitzing Haskins - he's looking like a QB making his 5th career start
3) NO LION
4) Improve on special teams
5) NO LION
6) O do something to take advantage of OSU's aggressiveness in the front 7 (maybe a screen - worked pretty well for OSU)
7) NO LION
8) NO LION
9) NO LION
10) NO LION

 

[Big 0]

I'm surprised nobody mentioned the illegal block in the back on the OSU TD. I'm watching the game with a large group of people and I'm not the only one that saw it.

 

[IANit]

We've been a second half team offensively, so hopefully that continues. D needs to watch for the cute stuff to Parris Campbell in the second half.

You forgot

Find the TE again
Try the wheel route again

It was mentioned!

Have you caught up yet?

 

[Sooner Lion]

We score 34 we win

 

[PSUQBKeeper]

Or the OL run blocking.

couple drops....Miles's lost footing....missed a fg....

We are rotating a lot on D... just wish Farmer would rotate himself out... he is really, really, bad.

 

[Gnat91]

Don't awaken the juggernaut. Osu's offense can't be stopped.

What about the Lion? Yay or Nay?

You missed that we should not use the Lion.

I was screaming about it, but it didn’t seem to change the call.

 

[PennState_one]

If we went up 20-0 this game would have been over. As it is it’s a total toss up. Fully expect OSU to march down field after half

Then people would still be bitching they aren't up by 28... for real

 

[84Lion]

Any idea how many 3 and outs by both teams? Can't seem to find it in the ESPN stats.

 

[Greg80]

Haskins has big eyes....must be very nervous....even on the Ted pass he looked like he was going to crap his pants....hate games like this . Wish it was 50 to nothing...

 

[Tom McAndrew]

I think it was mentioned a couple of times. PennStateNate was the 1st to mention it in THIS POST.

 

[PeetzPoolBoy]

As fellow arm chair coaches, what adjustments do you make at halftime?

 

[Sooner Lion]

And we need a punter. 36 yard ave does not cut it.

 

[psuro]

We should be up by 2 full scores. This has the makings of another sad ending.

They have already disappointed me. I predicted 0-12.

 

[PennSt8er]

I would put the Lion back for kickoff returns.

 

[psuro]

Shift my weight to the other butt cheek.

 

[PSUQBKeeper]

throw back to Hamler....nice...

 

[AWS1022]

Shift my weight to the other butt cheek.

And drink more beer....everyone knows us drinking more beer helps the team play better.
