Official '24 PSU - USC game thread

[PSUwolf]

A true **** show

 

[Alphalion75]

Clearly, favoring everything in USC’s direction.

Who cares.....I never listen to the announcers.

 

[psuro]

Brutal first half.

Looks like the USC of old -out quickinv PSU.

 

[Nits74]

I wonder if the defense is getting tired of looking at the back of the USC's players running past them?

They need to learn how to tackle first. So, so overrated.

very disappointing...almost any time where Franklin faces a team with some real talent or has to play in a semi-tough road environment his team too often underperforms...his teams usually have good half-time adjustments but i fear the coach across the field is just better

 

[PSU73]

Abdul Carter needs to spy Marks in 2nd half.

 

[WestSideLion]

This result should surprise no one. It’s a classic James Franklin performance in a big game on the road.

He will soon be 0-4 on the road with a top 5 ranking. And today isn’t particularly close.

This program is what it is (today) until a fresh leadership perspective is brought in 5-6 years from now.

 

[Alphalion75]

Seems we are getting exposed so far…

Our schedule to this point hasn't been very challenging.

Riley is absolutely a better coach with better skill talent. That’s a double whammy for a Franklin team.

 

[Alphalion75]

You know PSU will be 13th (first team out) in the playoff decisions!

The irony of if all.

 

[Paws057]

Our schedule to this point hasn't been very challenging.

Yes, I’m not really surprised. I mean BG was a close game…

 

[BiochemPSU]

Not only did they run wild, they were literally incapable of passing.

They had a totally 1 dimensional offense, and they still won.

Lol. You guys are crazy. Duke hired him to lead their team, Indiana fired our current guy but we knew better.

 

[CoolBean]

Penn State looks like Missouri vs A&M last week

 

[Ludd]

KOTELNICKI saved our offense!

I’d fire him on the TARMAC!!!!!!!!!!!!
HE SUCKS!!!!!!

Lord, you’re an asshat. Go find another hobby.

 

[SRD_PSU]

Lord, you’re an asshat. Go find another hobby.

You disagree?

 

[BiochemPSU]

Lord, you’re an asshat. Go find another hobby.

Yeah there is only one coach who has been behind every alleged bad coordinator.

 

[Keyser Soze 16802]

Big Game James

He's as predictable as the sun rising in the morning.....not a big game coach

 

[MtNittany]

If we come down and score a TD on the first drive, then get a 3 and out, I'll feel ok. It can't be some 10 minute drive though James. Only so many minutes left.

 

[Nittering Nabob]

Not only did they run wild, they were literally incapable of passing.

They had a totally 1 dimensional offense, and they still won.

But they are Michigan...the favored B1G child.

 

[GreggK]

I still can’t over the fact we didn’t do the tush push at the goal on the first series. Just f’ing run it.

 

[MtNittany]

Fleming can return kicks (I guess). Maybe Allar needs to throw it end over end to him.

 

[Paws057]

Fleming can return kicks (I guess). Maybe Allar needs to throw it end over end to him.

That would be fun to watch.

 

[Ludd]

You disagree?

Yes, I disagree and so would any normal person.

 

[cac@PSU]

The road to the playoffs now runs through Ohio State. A win is a must

 

[Ludd]

Yeah there is only one coach who has been behind every alleged bad coordinator.

Many of the “bad coordinators” went on to become head coaches.

 

[JoeBot409]

State college is a gutless sports town with a crappy football team.

 

[JoeBot409]

Abdul Carter is no Lavar

 

[BiochemPSU]

Maybe they find a way back, but this is exactly what you don’t want. OSU game is a long shot to win. The rest of the teams on the schedule are not exactly a bunch of blue bloods. Can’t be 10-2 with losses to the only two teams with pedigree and a pulse. Although now I will get to hear some on here talk about the alleged glory of some worthless end of the year bowl game win against Texas Tech.

 

[Calabrin]

Warren is going to end up with 15-20 catches.

 

[CoolBean]

USC has the 2nd worst run D in the BIG

 

[Paws057]

Abdul Carter is no Lavar

No one can match Lavar,,,,,

 

[BiochemPSU]

Many of the “bad coordinators” went on to become head coaches.

Some were better than others. But to suggest that they all stunk, particularly Diaz, is crazy. Franklin is the only constant amongst all of them.

 

[CoolBean]

Wow TD Warren

 

[grinagrin]

Warren snapped the ball

 

[Paws057]

Okay I liked that play

 

[CDLionFL]

OK Defense, your turn.

 

[MtNittany]

Blatent DPI on the TD. No call of course.

 

[Calabrin]

Big time pass interference on Warren's TD catch. No call.

 

[psu0408]

What a play by Warren. Time for the D to show up

 

[Nits74]

That was also pass interference.
