We had a fragile situation. We had a few players who could not get hurt. Clifford and PJ were at the top of the list.

Since JF has been here we have only been successful on offense with QB being major part of run game. We now have QB who cannot run and cannot throw. I bet right now if you ran a competition on the this team to see who could throw the longest pass, Clifford might not be in the top 5. We do not have a backup QB so no fix.

It's not that, it's that so much of what I'm seeing just doesn't make sense from everyone. Like SC throwing a pass to Lovett 7 yards behind the LOS on second down with 3 defenders around him, and Lovett actually catching the ball. Lining up a 250 lb TE 6 yards behind the lOS on 4th and 1, letting the clock run when you have a good chance to get into FG position, on and on.

Call time out with 3 seconds left to run out the clock. I've never seen that before.

PSU looking more and more like a 6-6 or 7-5 team.

Franklin has been all talk and no action the last 2 years. Too many excuses, not enough contingency planning. Few in game adjustments, at least ones that work.....

LOL... Go have a beer... Wait, my guess is that you had 12 already.... That's the only explanation of your poor behavior.

Just not a fun team to watch, especially offensively. Oh well, maybe Allar and company will inject some much needed energy into this team next year or two.

Announcers crying about Walker pushing the MD QB. The QB took about 5 steps and acted like he was going to get a kiss. Walker didn't have to follow through on the push but he didn't have to get out of the way either.

MD had just pushed a few PSU defenders 10 yards into the MD sideline and no one was crying.......

Team just isn’t good. Bottom line.
Problem is I thought they actually played very well against Auburn and pretty well against Ohio State. They are a good team when they come out inspired to play.

The issues start when they come out uninspired and lazy against the Illinois, Indiana, Maryland types and allow teams to hang around. Then it gets late in the game and they either squeak out a win or get upset.

They are just not prepared to play on most weekends.

Just watched the condensed version of the PSU vs WVU game from 1991 yesterday. What was immediately noticeable was the amount of fire and intensity that team played with. It’s very different compared to now.

Quit making sense. It’s frowned on by some posters.

Lia flopped too. He cost his team there. He wasn’t hurt.

That was completely classless to knock him down like that. Certainly not what I expect from PSU.

Lee just steps on the sideline. Stupid. Really had a chance to get the extra 4 yards if he just played a little smarter.

Rasheed Walker....... I hope someone on the staff got into his face. Nonsense.
Really? The QB ran 5 yards into the PSU sideline after not being touched on the field. Walker should have put some candy in his trick or treat bag??

I hope the rest of the team uses it as an example of the fact the they need to play nasty and realize this is a football game.
