Watched very little of Minnesota but how worried should we be?

He's not giving them bulletin board material
I can't believe you were an athlete and you're pretending players weren't honest
Hell, playing hockey for 4 years in Pittsburgh in the early 90s we intentionally tried to score early and often so we could take it easy on the other teams because most weren't capable of playing with us. But, yeah, we never talked about that--no friendly wagers to see how many goals we could score in the first period or anything. Just pure terror.
Sure... These players think about that game every night. 😂
Their losses are to 5 loss Michigan, 4 loss Rutgers NC, and Iowa. This game should not be close.
It's weird that those big receivers couldn't get open vs Wisconsin who beat them 42-7 at Rutgers.
PSU's OL and DL combined are probably the strongest of Franklin's tenure. So the danger of being upset by mid-level teams is much less because PSU has multiple ways to win. In other words, Minnesota probably isn't beating PSU for the same reason PSU doesn't beat tOSU. For all the elaborate Xs and Os, football is still fundamentally a line of scrimmage game.
Maryland will come in extremely motivated. Nothing would make them happier than beating PSU and knocking us out of the playoffs. They always have good WRs, so that will be a challenge.
Penn State's all time record against Maryland is 43-3-1. Relax, if we're 10-1 going into the Maryland game it won't be close.
All they had was Tua and he's gone. They couldn't even win when he was there. They're always motivated for a little while, at least till reality sets in.
They are 6-4 on a bye week. They play us then Wisconsin. I think they are already bowl eligible but it will be their last home game. Not that they need any more motivation to play a top five team.
Ref announced the wrong number on that kickoff penalty call, which is why nobody could find the hold. Wasn’t on 85. Think maybe 80.
If the players and coaches have their heads on straight, nothing to worry about. (Barring no key injuries)
That's great! We have 6'6" tight end that has the most receptions on the team
What's not great is not taking note of what post another is in reference to and that misidentifying sarcasm both are both negative measurements of IQ.

Let's just blame it on delco915. His take is terrible, but he's acting like it's some reverse speak it into existence type of thing.
They don't have the horses up front. That's been the story with PSU-MD in recent years. Locks recruits skill players well -- QBs, receivers, sometimes running backs. But getting the big guys especially on the D-line is hard for programs like MD. PSU OL and DL now is mostly people who are going to be playing on Sundays and if you don't have that it's hard to scheme around it.
You convinced me to bet on PSU against Washington, and I made out great. I never bet on PSU.
Sorry sir, I have him on ignore and I was being a little sarcastic. I am happy for one thing, I finally got dissed by you. I feel part of the board now.
