Football Penn State smothers Boise State, Jeanty en route to 31-14 quarterfinals win

[LandoComando]

I really believe that AK tries to be toooooo "unpredictable"... I didn't even know that was such a thing.

I've never seen anything like it. Usually coaches are like "you can't stop this--I'm going to kill you with it"
AK intentionally abandons it to see what else might work lol

 

[mhlarch]

We won easily......not as easy as it should have been, but I can't believe all the negativity on this thread tonight. No faith in our team. Have some faith, and our D had to play without #11. I'm pleased!

Don't get me wrong.....I'm not totally thrilled with AK's play calling tonight.

 

[PurposePitch]

I would not trade our RBs for Jenty. They can do m all m 3 skills at v a high level.

Let’s not get carried away.

I love Singleton and like Allen a lot, but Jeanty is special. We just have a very good defense that was very geared up tonight, and our entire game plan was to stop 1 guy.

 

[Marylovesthelions]

Hats off to coach Allen. He I et them pass and stuffed their beast, betting that we could keep them m from s c oring.

 

[LandoComando]

I'll take another angle on this:

Oregon's defense isn't all world and will cost them in the playoff.

Tomorrow?

 

[LandoComando]

Boise trying to cover this

My main problem with AK's cute plays are that THEY DON'T WORK! It'd be one thing if they work on a consistent basis, but they don't.

 

[LandoComando]

+3 in turnovers today too

 

[nittanybear]

I’m shitfaced, have an Opus I’ve been sitting on and WE ****ING ARE!!!!!! Life is GOOD!

 

[LandoComando]

Madsen threw as many picks today as he did ALL year

 

[GregInPitt]

Nice to see Mills get the INT. He has been a team player, switching positions, and never really broke into serious playing time. But is finishing his PSU with some fun and accomplishments.

 

[Chickenman Testa]

Glad we preserved Barry’s record. That would have been a cheap way to break it - running down 17.

That kid is definitely tough, though

lol I drank all my lunch.

 

[PAgeologist]

Minus the stupidity by coaches and players, this game was pretty good.

Yes, defense and the RUN GAME can take us to the promise land. However, DDS needs to be running his ass off at practice. Dirty dirty he is.

 

[pennstatefan111]

Thanks Jesus for the win

 

[nittanybear]

Minus the stupidity by coaches and players, this game was pretty good.

For the love of god enjoy the win

Think most of the angst comes from looking ahead to the semifinal game, thinking that if they play like this against ND/GA, their odds of winning are low, very low.

 

[PAgeologist]

lol I drank all my lunch.

I about got my bottle of Crown dusted.

 

[PAgeologist]

For the love of god enjoy the win

I am. But it was way more difficult than it should have been.

 

[pennstatefan111]

And Jeanty falls short of the record. Go back to Idaho

 

[lazydave841]

Tomorrow?

Perhaps so, yes. Although I'd probably rather Oregon take out the Buckeyes and Texas take out Oregon for us.

 

[94LionsFan]

In my opinion, he has ran for his life all game. I'm not sure why our line can't seem to pick up the blitz. This isn't prime Bama.

They lead FBS in sacks.

 

[LandoComando]

For the love of god enjoy the win

We're all happy
It's just--we expected this--we understand things have to cleaned up next week
We played a C+/B- type game today--that may not be good enough moving forward.

 

[cntblvitsbutter]

And Jeanty falls short of the record. Go back to Idaho

Now go get your shoebox!

 

[LandoComando]

Perhaps so, yes. Although I'd probably rather Oregon take out the Buckeyes and Texas take out Oregon for us.

That's the dream
If we avoid the Big Ten the rest of the season and just clean up some things a bit--I like our chances

 

[lazydave841]

In game threads are always negative. We expect the '99 Rams offense and '85 Bears defense every snap.

 

[OKLionFan]

To everybody bitching about something. That’s a 17 point win, and we’re in the FINAL FOUR!!!!!!

 

[SR108]

Either one a handful but I think Georgia.

Rather play ND, Georgia is more rested.

 

[LMTLION]

Minus the stupidity by coaches and players, this game was pretty good.

Ha that is the truth.

 

[pennstatefan111]

8-0 in the Fiesta ! I was there in 87 and it was incredible!

 

[LandoComando]

Rather play ND, Georgia is more rested.

Georgia would have a QB with very little experience facing a really good defense--I'd rather play him than Leonard
I will say that, Smart >>>>>> Freeman but I just don't want to see ND

 

[PAgeologist]

Wheatley and Warren POG. Well deserved by both.

 

[lazydave841]

Just think, we got 3 more games tomorrow!

 

[LandoComando]

Wheatley and Warren POG. Well deserved by both.

Yeah, good choices--Allen didn't find the endzone or I'd have been disappointed that he didn't get it

 

[PAgeologist]

For what it's worth. Carter not using his left arm holding the trophy

 

[LandoComando]

Just think, we got 3 more games tomorrow!

It's f***** awesome
All football all day with no stress
It's why I love noon games but this set up is even better

 

[PennState_one]

Just think, we got 3 more games tomorrow!

Lol and you best believe that they will be much more relaxing for me.

 

[CJFisJoePaII]

E-SPiN keeps blathering about what a great game Jeantry had when he had 30 rushes for 104 yards for a bad 3.5 ypc average - to put into perspective how thoroughly whipped BSU was in the Running Game, PSU RBs only ran the ball 29 times total combined for 221 yards.... something tells me that Jeantry wasn't the best RB on the field... he wasn't even the 2nd best RB on the field.

How about their incessant wrong bullshit that CJF only has 2 wins against Top 10 teams despite the fact he had 3 coming into the year and they've won against Top 10 Ranked teams in consecutive CFP Playoff Games! LMFAO - the utterly wrong bullshit troll propaganda E-SPiN spews to diminish PSU / CJF.

Concerned--very concerned
