If not for the defense, Penn State would be getting blown out.

Why the f'n shotgun in obvious running situations?!? I've got a sinking suspicion Franklin is abandoning some badly needed offensive diversity and physical play by shelving the under center.

5 turnovers. Ugh. That's not the weather, but they haven't been turnover prone this year either. Let's hope it's a one off.

The weather certainly had something to do with it considering they haven’t been turnover prone until they play in a downpour.

I’ve been patient in saying this, but Allen sees the holes and reads his line far more quickly and better than Singleton at this point. With the struggles of this line in the past two weeks on running plays, Allen may be a bit more trustworthy when you really need some yards on the ground. Both are great talents and Singleton has the better speed, but right now Allen has better vision and cut ability.

How about that halftime coaching job by Franklin’s buddy Ja Juan Seider? RB’s continued to leave the ball unprotected during the second half….but he’s a good recruiter 🤷🏼‍♂️

Today showed why this team finishes 7-5.

I apologize in advance for having something positive to write, but Northwestern only had 31 yards rushing on 28 carries. Sorry.
I think that tells you that the defensive line and the depth of it is A+. There haven't been many gashes in the 5 games on normal running plays, only on breakdowns and the QB escapes. Again, the defensive weakness is LB coverage on underneath plays. A team with a good O-line can nickel-dime their way down the field with the quick stuff (Twerps come to mind) and give them trouble. There was really only three deep balls that got completed and one of those was when Carter got lost in coverage on the TD so defensive line and the secondary are in pretty good shape thru the first half of the season.
