I haven't noticed it this year but probably because I haven't watched is close enough, does PSU pull any of the offensive lineman? Do we run trap blocks? Do we pull on toss sweep type of plays? Watching the Eagles game last Sunday night and watching Lane Johnson pull and trap block got me thinking about PSU line play and not remembering if they did or not. Best is when Jason Kelce and an uncovered guard pull on a toss sweep. Get them Big Uglies on the move Coach Franklin!!!

Uh oh. This was argued about a few months ago. You must have missed it, but you’re possibly hitting a beehive here. Short answer: Yes.

Is this BWLion’s burner account?

just go to youtube, search any PSU game this year, and watch the lineman. They pull on almost every rushing play. It’s not hard to see.

Yes they pull on an outside zone type of play. ( pin and pull). Most of their traps are by the TE
There are some very good OL coaches out there that advocate that none of the OL pull. Too much teaching involved
Imo to say there’s an OL puller on almost every run play is not accurate

Yes, we do. Fairly regularly.

Earlier this year, in one of his desperate attempts to criticize Franklin for everything and anything, BW Lion started a thread stating that we don't pull, and successful teams pull. BW Lion was shown video evidence that he was clearly wrong. Then BW Lion tried to move the goal posts and say we didn't pull a certain way (between the tackles). Again he was shown video evidence that he was clearly wrong. Then BW Lion just moved on to some other unsupportable attack on Franklin, and later still tried to say we don't pull ... because he's BW Lion.

It isn't me, but I find the question interesting. As sluggo noted, they most noticeably pull on outside runs and as we all witnessed vs MSU there are numerous times they feebly attempt to run between the tackles straight up.....those usually don't work. :cool:

I don’t know how Cain is playing but I did see him have a very impressive power run the other week.

Other than demonstrating your mastery of the “quote” function, did your post have an actual theme or point? 🤷🏼‍♂️

I'd say you're playing dumb ... but you're not playing. That's a link to the thread in which you originally made your "no pulling" claim.

You “quoted” your own fictitious post…a new low even for you.

Didn’t you just love how PSU woefully tried to run between the tackles against MSU without pulling ?🤣

Wut? I provided a link to the thread which has the initial discussion of this topic. Stop drinking.

How cute 🙄

You originally quoted yourself and FTLPSU and then edited your post to delete yours.

No amount of editing on your part will alter your demonstrated patheticism.

Bless your ❤️

The inconvenient truth.


Again, what in the world are you rambling on about? Some quote you think you saw somewhere? An edit? Help me help you.

The only place I see an FTLPSU post is in the thread I linked to ... from early September. Are you trying to imagine that I edited something in the posts from September? What the freak?! No, no I didn't. You'll see there's no "edited" indication in there. Because I didn't edit anything. But, what would it matter if I did? I don't even understand what you're trying to accuse me of ... I supposedly somehow quote myself and FTLPSU? I'm not sure how that's even possible but ... so what if I did (I didn't, but what if imaginaryland was real)?

Is this just to divert attention from the thread where multiple posters corrected you on your mistaken belief that PSU doesn't pull?

You, I and everyone that viewed your initial post know that I am correct

No amount of deflection and post-edit dancing on your part will save you at this point.

God Bless you ❤️

Ah, you poor thing.

What "initial post"? In this thread? Where? In the other thread? Where?

I get it. You're embarrassed, sad and alone looking to troll on a Friday night. But this is crazy, even for you. This is the type of total meltdown you usually have just before creating another username.

Ah, I get it now ... you're trying to get this thread blown up so the evidence disappears. LOL. Awesome. Have a good night, big guy.

Nope. I mostly listened to the games on the radio this season and was bored at work yesterday and watching the Eagles game on Sunday had me wondering if PSU ran any trap blocks, pulling on sweeps etc. I didn't recall the thread earlier this year, I probably started to read it and then it sounds like it hit the crapper like this one and I probably moved on to another thread. My apologies for starting a Spanish Inquisition. BTW, I did watch a bit of the MD game on youtube and noticed we are pulling on sweeps. My bad. Nothing to see here and carry on.
