Official ‘24 PSU - Minnesota game thread

[CDLionFL]

Ok, say they don't get it on 3rd down here. There will be :27 left when they have to snap the ball again. You go for it or do you risk the FG situation? I say you go and trust the defense to come up with 3 stops.

 

[Paws057]

1 for 10 today on third downs today…ugh

 

[Tom McAndrew]

Singleton for 1 yard to the Minny 22. Minny takes their final TO.

Then Singleton is stopped for a 1-yard loss. Minny seems to be selling out to stop the run.

3rd & 10. Appears PSU will run the clock, and they do, and call TO with 1:11 left in the game.

 

[CDLionFL]

Minny may elect to allow PSU to score. If they try that on D, I hope PSU is smart enough to take a slide before getting to the endzone

Devin Ford not on the roster.

 

[CDLionFL]

Hey Gary, they can't take a 2nd timeout after trying to draw them offside!! That would be a delay of game.

 

[Calabrin]

Knowing Franklin, he will try to run the clock out instead of putting his foot on the gas.

Called it.

Not even trying to score.

 

[Paws057]

Line up under center and drive it

 

[CoolBean]

Go for it....

 

[CDLionFL]

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEHAWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW

 

[Paws057]

That was gutsy

 

[Nitt1300]

winner!

 

[Nitt1300]

Called it.

Called it.

Not even trying to score.

just trying to win

 

[Paws057]

Well they finished good

 

[Tom McAndrew]

Singleton runs for 9 yards on 3rd down. Nice blocks on the left side of the line. 4th & 1, and PSU will let the clock run down, and take TO with 0:27 left in the game.

PSU is going for it, and not kicking the FG?

Pass completion to Warren, and his sits down at the 3.

1st down, and PSU will win. They don't even need to snap it!!

 

[BiochemPSU]

Good lord, no more of that next week

 

[LB99]

Always Angostura (regular).

The last time I was in Disney, one place had a chocolate (chocolate bitters) old fashioned on the menu. Sounded too sweet for me but I tried it.

I usually try the ones I see on the menus that are a little different, but the traditional one is the best.

 

[WestSideLion]

James, I take back all the bad stuff. You are a ballsy SOB and you won it late with calls.

 

[SleepyLion]

We have some ugly rivalry trophies.

 

[BobPSU92]

Two words to describe this win:

Championship Football

 

[Calabrin]

Steve Jones is the best.

 

[CoolBean]

Winner, winner

 

[LionsAndBears]

Franklin called a hell of a game! He made the right calls when it mattered most! WE ARE!

 

[Nittany1865Farmer]

We need a serious bar party!! Can Midnighter open up the bar for an all-night retro, blow-out bar party with live band and hot babes all over the floor/?????????

 

[LB99]

Ugh. This game has been way too much of a struggle. Total mental and emotional exhaustion against a 6-4 opponent.

Another ultra conservative game plan against an opponent that came in fired up and ready to play.

Ultra conservative game plan on the road? You ever watch Penn State football? In the last 60 years?

Nobody that has paid attention to Minnesota all year thought this would be a cakewalk.

 

[MrTailgate]

WE ARE…!!

 

[JWB389]

Some gutsy calls there in the 4th. Credit to the coaches.

 

[Marshall2323]

So with the fake punt call...in spite of the team playing a terrible game.. Franklin won this game. No ******** end of discussion.

 

[LB99]

Called it.

Not even trying to score.

Um, yes that is the smart move.

 

[Paws057]

We need a serious bar party!! Can Midnighter open up the bar for an all-night retro, blow-out bar party with live band and hot babes all over the floor/?????????

We need a drink after that game…

 

[SleepyLion]

So we root for scUM next week?

 

[Tom McAndrew]

 

[BiochemPSU]

Heard Franklin had his realtor on hold when he signed off on the fake punt call.

 

[LB99]

WE ARE…!!

PENN STATE!!

 

[Tom McAndrew]

We need a drink after that game…

LOL, most PSU fans probably needed a drink during the game to be able to last until the end.

 

[CoolBean]

hehehe Colorado lost to Kansas

 

[WVilleLion23]

Will take a hard fought ugly W any day over a L.

 

[Paws057]

LOL, most fans probably needed a drink during the game to be able to last until the end.

I should have…

Damn good win.

 

[Nitt1300]

LOL, most fans probably needed a drink during the game to be able to last until the end.

weakness is rampant

 

[Tom McAndrew]

So we root for scUM next week?

I don't think I have the ability to do that, even if it would benefit PSU
