Football Penn State defeats Utah 35-21 in the Rose Bowl

[johnmpsu]

Clifford is playing really well. Good for him and PSU.

 

[bdgan]

Utah is playing 10 guys within 7 yds of LOS with one deep safety.

Clifford with some quick release throws.

It will certainly smell like something. 🤔😷😵‍💫

Between a taster for lunch and a few beers while cleaning the garage I was already fogging myself out!

14-7 (as of this post) ferochious Lions 👍

 

[NittanyChris]

Clifford was absolutely FANTASTIC on that drive!

 

[GregInPitt]

Are our LBs hoping to get to the QB instead of staying in their gap?

They do seem to be moving up too far into the gap and getting blocked at the LOS rather than attacking once they see where the play is actually going.

The question is, can we avoid the “Score and Relax” syndrome?

 

[psu00]

Were tickets to this game distributed evenly? Sure doesn;t seem so

No. The PAC rep has always received more. That said, it’s a slightly shorter and cheaper trip from Utah to LA than Pennsylvania.

 

[GregInPitt]

Finally, Carter with a TFL !!

 

[PAgeologist]

Hope the DBs hold up cause there is no pressure on Rising

 

[NCLION]

#8 looked lost

 

[GregInPitt]

Oh my, Wilson in never never land........

 

[psu00]

Once again- 3rd and long. 😡

 

[Onionbelly]

Terrible!

 

[GregInPitt]

#8 looked lost

The reason the Duck is on the way.....

 

[Dylan Callaghan-Croley]

Kalen King did go into Penn State's lockeroom. Something to watch entering the second half.

 

[NCLION]

DEs need to friggin contain

 

[Dylan Callaghan-Croley]

Penn State fails to wrap up Ja'Quinden Jackson and he goes 19-yards and Utah ties this one up with 2:38 left in the first half.

 

[mcpat]

Bad tackling.

 

[bdgan]

Ugh. That was really bad

 

[j-buff]

That was a terrible serries for us

 

[Onionbelly]

Just pathetic tackling.

 

[fastlax16]

lots of blown tackles on that run. should have been a tfl. smh.

 

[YeOldeCup]

PSU isn't the only team with this problem, but tackling is a lost skill in CFB.

 

[okinburg1]

4 missed tackles on 1 run = Utah TD
It is amazing how almost no one in college football can f-ing tackle anymore.

 

[NCLION]

Why are we suddenly not tackling?
That drive was all on #8

 

[NittanyChris]

Horrendous tackling. Pitiful.

 

[j-buff]

What tackling

 

[PSUQBKeeper]

sure look like they haven't tackled anyone in a month

 

[GregInPitt]

Elsdon laying on the ground in the backfield. Nuff said.....

 

[AvgUser]

The question is, can we avoid the “Score and Relax” syndrome?

I guess not

 

[PAgeologist]

Bad tackling.

Another great hallmark of this team along with giving up easy scoring drives.

 

[BudatPSU]

Penn State fails to wrap up Ja'Quinden Jackson and he goes 19-yards and Utah ties this one up with 2:38 left in the first half.

Sloppy tackling.

 

[okinburg1]

The question is, can we avoid the “Score and Relax” syndrome?

Nope

 

[bono47]

Same old James Franklin soft ass mentality on defense.

 

[Onionbelly]

3rd and 10 and give up a 47 yard gain. AWFUL!

 

[PSUQBKeeper]

announcers always make it sound like the running back did some kind of ninja shit but jesus that's just a missed tackle for loss

 

[Chickenman Testa]

Big 12-esque defense there. My Kingdom for Poz, Connor and Lee

 

[PSUQBKeeper]

Same old James Franklin soft ass mentality on defense.

it's real bs to blame that on Franklin ffs

 

[knickslions]

Stupid blitz on third and long
