the injuries along the OL during the season really hurt PSU, as it limited a lot of what they wanted to do on O.
Please stop with your woeful excuses.

If PSU didn't have the OL talent to run RB's up the middle between the Tackles as they repeatedly attempted today, perhaps that should have shifted to an outside running game?

Better than Micah at this stage in comparison.
I agree. The big advantage for Carter is that he played LB in HS. He already understands the position and plays with discipline. In HS, Micah was a stand up DE and was allowed to roam. Big adjustment for him in college. Carter stays home when he should. Micah didn't at first.

His contract is unchanged. The extra money came from 2 big MSU boosters. He’s still playing his original contract.
They can still be pissed. They are stuck with a way less than average HC probably for the duration unless those two bigger donors want to admit they were wrong down the road and tell AD to fire him.

Some folks can complain all they want about CJF. The fan base that should be pissed is MSU. Tucker suckered them in using the portal to get some success and that large contract. If he can actually develop talent and build that program I will be surprised.
Say what you want about Tucker but his roster is depleted from the suspended players and injuries and they still competed. Didn't quit. I expect they will be better next year.

That’s debatable. He completely out-coached us with almost no talent on the field.

Carter is a stud
The head coach for the NY Football Giants was @ the game. You know he made notes for his staff to keep tabs on Carter for the future. Of course as the Giants improve, they probably won't be in a position to draft Carter. If Carter's trajectory continues upward he is going to be pegged as a very high 1st rounder. Dude is a missle.

They had a good 3rd quarter. Nowhere near out coached us.

Franklin probably out coached him last year minus a 3rd and 15 fade.

PSU started the season unranked. With Oregon losing today, PSU should end the regular season in the top 10.

Sure, I would have preferred to not lose 2 games, but there was a lot to be pleased with about this season.

That some of you can only focus on the negatives, especially in game threads, has always surprised me.

huh?? the opening play of this series was a run. It may have been designed to go between the tackles, but Allen broke it wide (or it was designed for him to do so).
I recall he attempted to run between the tackles but it was stuffed so he bounced outside.

My point was that MSU was attacking the LOS and daring PSU to pass, and PSU played right into their hands. The closer the score the more conservative the play call.

Until 4th down and Franklin lost confidence in Pinegar.
