If our Oline remains dinged up this could be a lot closer than we want it to.
Dinged or undinged what difference does it make? The OLine has been generally underperforming at PSU since the beginning of the 21 first century. If we’re expecting them to be the difference makers it may be a long day.

It makes a HUGE difference.
If you haven't seen the improvement in the OL this year from last then I'm not sure what your looking at or what to tell you.

You have your opinion and I’ll respect that. But to me going from bad to mediocre after all these years at this level of play isn’t anything to be excited about. And are they better, or perhaps the abilities of the two freshmen running backs make them appear better. Conversely I won’t argue that the lack of a superior running back the last two years didn’t hurt.
Unfortunately after years of OLine emphasis and purported development we have OLU and some other guys. I’m sorry but it isn’t a team strength at this point in time, and after all the emphasis in recruitment and development it should be better than it is. I’m not a Franklin hater, I’m a 💯 % PSU graduate and fan, but honestly that’s the way I see it.

Man such bitterness. I was just making a comment that we may not have our regular guys and that may make a difference. You'd be a fool to believe there would not be a drop-off with our 2nd string guys. We saw what happens with OSU with a second string RT.

Not saying this line is great, but it is better than last year and the stats show that.

Yeah sounds like you would be happier not watching the games.
