My quick unfiltered thoughts:
- Thread starter olelion
- Start date
No moving the goalposts. That wasn’t the question. I doubt Vanderbilt was favored to beat Alabama yesterday.
Agree. This defense reminds me of the bend don’t break zone d that Bradley employed. I prefer the Diaz man in your face d. The middle of the field seems to be open a lot. I’m not sure if that’s a result of the structure of the defense or missed assignments, but it is an issue.
Vanderbilt athletic supporters moved the goalposts.
Funny you say that about the seat backs. Two guys in front of me did not have seat backs and their butts were beyond the edge of the seats and my knees were right in their backs. I’m 6-2 and felt like A sardine.
if we work hard and apply ourselves- we just might get there.
Now you are getting it.PENN STATE IS THE WORST 5-O COLLEGE FOOTBALL IN WORLD HISTORY. THE ONLY THING WORSE IS FOR THEM TO BE THE WORST 6-0 COLLEGE FOOTBALL TEAM IN WORLD HISTORY.
Thought Martin looked very much like Blair Thomas when he touched the ball. Similar posture.
Martin looked like a guy in his 50s?
to be fair, injuries are a pretty big factor on this team right now. we have the players who are just not playing and some others that are playing less than what we have seen (i.e. Rojas yesterday was a lot better than the last few games - he may have been playing injured). losing Donkoh was a big loss along with Nick not playing. the team playing today is not the team that hammerd WVU day one.
the other thing that seems noticeable is the QB running. Drew seems to be pulling back on the QB runs and Beau comes in and almost always runs the same play. If we are going to have a Beau package it would help if he poses a pass threat. Equally, Drew needs to run and has shown he can do that effectively. If we limit their options we make it easier for D to figure us out.
glad to see we made some FGs, but nobody has mentioned punting. We seem to lose field position on net punting, and when we start slow, the other guys move to near midfield (if they don't score) early and pin us. if we don't move ball early, then we are punting. we need field position changing punts.
Agree especially the Beau Package.
Yea, not sure what was going on with Riley but he had a bad game. I don't think he's been as good the last few games.
We have had some pretty bad luck with injuries and to key players, our LB'r corps is paper thin. At least Rojas looks like he might be getting better, same with Liam Clifford. That was a good sign.
Brilliant post, clear, concise and to the point.
That’s not fun. The seatbacks impinge so much on the legroom of the person behind them. Yesterday was the first time I looked around the stadium and thought to myself, yes, an upgrade is long overdue.
Ward is legit. One guy at the most critical position and suddenly they are in every game.
Fully realizing I can find the info somewhere else….do they still sell only the seat cushions? No back? I am row 40, lower level for years, on the aisle. This is the first time my skinny *** was half off the bench.
I have never had more fans unable to find their seat. I love the people who just give up and find a place to sit. Too many to crawl over, so I’ll just sit on your lap.

Regarding the rented seatbacks, what is the answer? Difficult to adjust how far to scoot back and not wiggle out of the slot.
Agree, at 6'3" I hated those chair backs in front of me. I already had zero knee room.
I didn't mind the fans that had trouble finding their seats, what pissed me off was not knowing where your seats are going to be and then waiting until the start of the game to find them.
No exaggeration, had people in the second half that could not find their seat. Where the hell have you been?Agree, at 6'3" I hated those chair backs in front of me. I already had zero knee room.

lol if Penn State was just "in every game" the fans would be hanging Franklin in effigy around here, Ward is good but they should have definitely one and arguably two losses
and one of those losses is to us with a score that wasn't as close as it seemed.
and go state beat bruins. We will all know a bit more next sat afternoon
You can’t argue with him. He’s a ‘fan’ that thinks every game must be won 63-0 or else it’s a failure. He buys into the ‘eye test’ theory which usually means ‘no brain’.
We already did. Its Go State, beat the Trojans. C'mon keep up.
Ohio State 1
USC
Minny
Wash- could have found their footing
Wisky
Considering how inconsistent the team has played and mounting injuries...not a stretch to see them losing one or 2
Of the above.
