Go Lions. First Penn State game I went to was UCLA/Penn State when Rip Engle was the coach. Too long ago to remember the year.

If you haven’t left yet and are going to game this is the worst traffic in a long time. Maybe years

I remember as a kid either watching the 1968 game on television or listening on the radio -- can't quite recall which but I think it was televised -- and the dominating performance of our great D that day.

On paper this game looks about as competitive as, say, Northwestern would be, but it's kind of cool to play a team like UCLA, a glamour school on the West Coast, that we hardly ever see.

I went to that game as well. Gary Beban was QB for UCLA and there was some controversy concerning a radio receiver in his helmet,

 

[Dylan Callaghan-Croley]

1) I expect a small role for Singleton today. If he’s remotely banged up don’t risk any further injury before next week.

2) UCLA’s offensive line is a mash unit, I don’t expect Garbers to play today.

Yeah that’s right. I forgot that.

Glad the coaches are doing an in-game tryout. Perhaps Chase Meyer will also have an opportunity. If I was coaching I would still allow Sander to kick PATs. He's 100% kicking PATs.

 

[Dylan Callaghan-Croley]

Kaden Saunders has a boot on his foot today.

Any indicator of who may return punts and kicks now @Dylan Callaghan-Croley ?

---
Reading it's Zion Tracy. Announced as PR.

Singleton warming up on kick return. Evans announced as starter at KR.

Barker Announced as K.

CB Elliot Washington II is wearing No. 9 today.

WR Tyler Johnson is wearing No. 11 today.

I'll be surprised if this isn't a blowout. Hard to see us not covering the 28-point spread.

Famous last words...

USC is next week--could easily sleepwalk through this--at least early

 

[Richie O]

Ugly three and out for Penn State to start the game, as two passes to Fleming with one completion and one run with Allen.

 

[YeOldeCup]

Jeepers. This team starts another game completely asleep.

Evans had the catch

 

[scrivener]

JFs comments about needing to be better opening up a game didn't manifest itself there. Terrible offensive possession.

 

[palmettolion]

For having one of the premiere turf grass management programs in the county, the field looks substandard.

 

[Jerry]

Yup, our pattern of sleepwalking early is now well established.

 

[bdroc]

I'm surprised they didn't run again on second down. Get a 1st down and better field position before opening it up.

 

[PennState_one]

Let's see a dominant drive here.

Whoops. Forgot they were going for it after the commercial. 😂

 

[KCLion]

Throwing behind the sticks on 3rd and 4th down is getting old.

And UCLA converts the 4th down.... lol......

 

[LandoComando]

It's fine against teams like this (usually)--but we can't do that next week

 

[scrivener]

Our pass defense has been a bit underwhelming compared to what many expected. Doesn't help that not a single true DE can get to the QB.

 

[Jerry]

That's not targeting.

 

[SUPERTODD]

Zero chance that is targeting. I can see them blowing this though.

 

[scrivener]

JF always mentions how they self evaluate and try to fix issues....how they still don't have an answer to sluggish, bad starts on offense and defense is discouraging. Is it poor habits at the hotel the night before? Poor leadership? It's just a very bad trend to set because better teams will make u pay.

 

[PSUPride1]

Hard to play football anymore.

It's never "fine."

I see what you are talking about. It's really beat up.

 

[LandoComando]

It's never "fine."

It is--if you win it's "fine"
Frustrating but unless it impacts the final result it's "fine"
The issue is when it happens it games it can't. Lots of great teams start slow. UGa does all the time.

 

[AvgUser]

That was dumb of UCLA; TAke 3 points

 

[LandoComando]

Nice stop on 4th & 1

It's never fine. Yeah, they might be able to get away with it, but ask Franklin if it's "fine."
