Football Penn State defeats USC 33-30 in overtime!

[LandoComando]

While I don’t disagree, Allar still seems to look one way only. Are the WRs that well covered?

At this point, I think he only trusts Warren to actually make a play
They need to get Clifford more involved

 

[KnightWhoSaysNit]

USC could win this game easily. PSU weakness is zone pass coverage. In man coverage we don't have the type of discipline needed to stop the run.

To win this game the offense has to play smarter. No low percentage stuff. I don't think Singleton is 100%, which is why Allen has been getting so many carries.

 

[GregInPitt]

The only time the DL has gotten pressure is when USC lets them on a called screen.

 

[LionDeNittany]

You get more irrational by the second

Have you checked stats? Seems like their qb is doing pretty well.

 

[NittanyLionRoar]

Another example of everyone overrunning the play on defense. No discipline.

 

[LandoComando]

Okay--this LB core is the worst I've ever seen at Penn State

 

[psualt]

You can’t convince me the defense isn’t better with 11 not in the middle

 

[Dylan Callaghan-Croley]

USC loves to use the screen this season and it feels like Penn State didn't get that memo this week.

 

[PSUWrestlingFanSince2011]

So slow

I think USC is just a better and better coached team.

Zakee Wheatley is not good

 

[PennSt8er]

completely schooled. utter shitshow

 

[Dylan Callaghan-Croley]

Have you checked stats? Seems like their qb is doing pretty well.

He's 4-for-7 on anything beyon d the line fo scrimmage for 46 yards. 4-for-5 for 43 yards on screens.

 

[LandoComando]

Why is Rojas still on the field?

 

[fastlax16]

smh. Nobody home.

 

[LandoComando]

He's 4-for-7 on anything beyon d the line fo scrimmage for 46 yards. 4-for-5 for 43 yards on screens.

This--Moss has been fine but unimpressive

 

[summitlion1]

KLS isn't killing it---look at when he put up those numbers
Allar isn't the problem

He had 7 rec forn95 yds against Georgia. Is that bad competition?

 

[bdroc]

Carter brings the heat, we get beat on a quick release screen.

They know what we do and they're taking advantage.

 

[fastlax16]

Make a ****ing tackle

 

[GregInPitt]

Has USC shown all these screens before this game or is PSU just not prepared for them?

 

[LandoComando]

He had 7 rec forn95 yds against Georgia. Is that bad competition?

No, Georgia isn't bad--see when those yards came in the game and what Auburn was down by
KLS isn't lighting it up when it matters in games

 

[LionDeNittany]

This--Moss has been fine but unimpressive

This is their normal offense

it's basic playcalling. nothing cute. just execution.

I don't know what you think the scoreboard shows other than we're being outcoached

Clifford needs to get Clifford more involved. If you aren't open, you aren't going to make a play.

 

[PennSt8er]

pull your D coord in from...rolls dice...Indiana, and expect to be a Natty contender?

 

[scrivener]

Abdul and the rush ends have been absolutely silent. What a shock.

 

[fastlax16]

Holding.

 

[shifix]

We are really underperforming so far. Extra day out here not a benefit!

 

[PennState_one]

It seems to me that it's not just one player on USC standing out; they’re simply faster as a team.

 

[j-buff]

I agree sending Lambert-Smith packing for Flemming was a bad decision at least he got open

 

[LandoComando]

Clifford needs to get Clifford more involved. If you aren't open, you aren't going to make a play.

He needs to be on the field more--do you like that verbiage better?

 

[m.knox]

Abdul and the rush ends have been absolutely silent. What a shock.

Him getting chopped saved a TD.

 

[LionDeNittany]

Shows their qb is outplaying Allar

 

[SR108]

Getting screened to death.

 

[PennSt8er]

Welp. The D has to be gassed.

 

[fastlax16]

Shows their qb is outplaying Allar

That’s not how team sports work.

They just lost to Minnesota

 

[Dylan Callaghan-Croley]

Penn State once again stops USC on third down. Trojans make the 47-yard field goal, its now 20-6 USC with 7 seconds left. Penn State will likely kneel it out to end the half but will get ball coming out of halftime. A drive that could decide their fate.
