Official ‘24 PSU - Minnesota game thread

[CDLionFL]

Minny much more competitive than I had figured. Should make for a fun to watch second half.

Haven't seen them all year?

 

[Calabrin]

Gee, that’s never happened TO Penn State.

Doesn't matter. The fact that we're dependent upon bogus calls to be competitive is a disgrace.

 

[MtNittany]

I'd say if PSU doesn't get the ball back and exert their usual 3rd quarter dominance, then we could have a problem. Some things just seem off. Seems really cold up there.

I knew it would be a tough matchup. They manhandled the USC lines earlier in the season.

 

[yboby]

Running game really weak. Losing Donkoh really hurt, also for pass protection.

 

[psuno1]

So, I know #0 didn’t block the kick, but isn’t it now a penalty if you hurdle the OL?

Yes it's called leaping called on Mike Hull vs OSU 2014

 

[LB99]

Wasn't the rule changed for 2017 after the blocked FG against OSU helped us win in 2016?

I thought so also?

I believe you can hurdle them provided you do it clean in the you don’t step on them or use leverage. You can’t use your own teammate either.

I thought he did both. Push off DL and didn’t completely clear him.

 

[Paws057]

F$ck that glass.

Someone stole my glass!

 

[Psu00]

13 rushes for 10 yards.

0.8 yards per rush…against Minnesota.

If your disgraced, maybe you should go do something else with your evening?

 

[LB99]

Is Fatman sick?

 

[yboby]

Run defense doesn't seem too disciplined. Lots of cutback lanes.

 

[MacNit]

Just pathetic

Special Teams Coach needs to go…

 

[Paws057]

13 rushes for 10 yards.

0.8 yards per rush…against Minnesota.

An offensive juggernaut

 

[MacNit]

With Minny getting the ball at the 2nd half, that could be a nine point swing for not paying attention on the extra point. They still need to get their head in it on every play!!

10 point swing possible

 

[Paws057]

Is Fatman sick?

Maybe he got in trouble and had to sit out a half?

 

[leinbacker]

all that carping and whining wasted?

No, we get to start over in the second half

 

[MacNit]

Special teams is below average.

Below average…how about bottom 10%

 

[Player2BNamedL8r]

Special teams coach shouldn’t be allowed back out after halftime.

 

[Paws057]

We were sloppy, gee no kidding

 

[LB99]

Maybe he got in trouble and had to sit out a half?

He played a little.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

An inauspicious start for PSU on D on the 1st play of the 2nd half

 

[Paws057]

He played a little.

I didn’t see him

 

[Calabrin]

Even if we pull this game out, does anyone believe we're not going to get embarrassed in the first round of the playoffs, regardless of opponent?

Minnesota just came out and threw the ball over the middle of the field for a massive gain.

 

[Paws057]

Of course he got the first down, thanks for the gift of 5 yards

 

[CDLionFL]

Get up and celebrate after a 2-yard loss, can't stay onside when you're over the damn ball. Where's the f'ing discipline on this team?

 

[Calabrin]

Yet another dumbass offsides penalty. 11th game of the season.

 

[Calabrin]

Get up and celebrate after a 2-yard loss, can't stay onside when you're over the damn ball. Where's the f'ing discipline on this team?

Yup. The celebrating has been ridiculous all season.

Dude, take your wet blanket attitude over to the Pitt boards.

 

[Alphabets]

No discipline

 

[EPC FAN]

Doesn't matter. The fact that we're dependent upon bogus calls to be competitive is a disgrace.

Please, get lost!

 

[Tom McAndrew]

3rd & 9, and Izzard jumps offside, so it becomes 3rd & 4. smh

Geez, looks like he's stopped just short of the stick, but he's spotted just past the stick for the 1st down. Check that, the play is under review.

Ruling on the field stands as called.

 

[PSU87]

Dude, take your wet blanket attitude over to the Pitt boards.

Wet blanket? Are you watching the game?

 

[Calabrin]

Deleted.

 

[AvgUser]

What are your thoughts? Do we get in the playoffs either a loss today? I think it's iffy.

No freaking way. They don’t deserve it

 

[dcf4psu]

Really bad in all three phases so far.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

PSU with a corner blitz, and the QB throws to the WR on that side, and Reed is a tad slow in getting there, so it's a 1st down, Minny, at the PSU 29

 

[Calabrin]

Dude, take your wet blanket attitude over to the Pitt boards.

It's almost as though you're not watching.

 

[EricStratton-RushChairman]

I've tried to stay positive with Franklin but this is too much. Team is dead. No emotion. Eff him.

 

[Nittany1865Farmer]

Only our defense can stop a play 15 yards behind the line of scrimmage and still let them turn it into a positive play for Minny...
