Just stop. No need for negative Nancy. Are you BW Lion under a different name?Sigh.
Look, not to sound cynical, because when you look at a #8 standing to finish the season, that looks pretty good, particularly when you were unranked in the pre-season.
…but…
I can’t even begin to fathom anyone being at peace with the way we lost our two games. It’s difficult for me to see us as anything other than a 2nd-tier program because we cannot achieve any level of consistent competitiveness against the teams that are CLEARLY in the top tier.
I dunno. I have high standards. I expect us to be in the conversation with Ohio State and Michigan and we’re not. They beat us every ******* year, and it’s not acceptable to me. Ohio State and Michigan do not charge the field when they beat us. We do when we beat them. That tells you everything you need to know.
I’m excited for the future of this team in terms of its on-field talent, but the offensive coaching I saw today against a very bad Michigan State team is cause for considerable concern. I’m not convinced our coaches are capable of going into a game against a tough team and pounding them into the dirt with their gameplan the way Michigan did to us in October. We play scared. We play to not lose. Our opponents play aggressively. They play to win.
When we’re good, we maybe eek out wins over tough opponents. When they’re good, they crush us. The difference in play calling and player development. Something on the offensive side of the ball has to change REAL QUICK.
That’s my 2-late-TDs-to-make-it-look-better-than-it-was cents.
You don’t like the Rose Bowl? It’s nice over there.Most who dis the Cotton Bowl.....don't actually go to bowl games.....been to the Rose.....I'll take the Cotton any day. Great venue and game day experience.
My parents are in The Villages and there’s a lot of PSU people down there who love it when PSU plays in Orlando or Tampa.Selfishly, I'd like Citrus because it's in my backyard. From a matchup standpoint, Cotton would be a bit of a downer. I subscribe to the theory as well about wanting a fun matchup against maybe someone we've never played from a power 5 or one we have a past with that we haven't seen in a while. Orange vs Clemson would be ok by me. The way the dominos are falling, don't count out Ohio State quite yet as team #4 and if that happens, hello Pasadena against either Oregon or Utah.
Sigh.

No need to take it personal. Just my opinion. You have yours. I have mine. Not trying to argue. Sheesh.Who cares?
No. I’m a realist, and I call balls and strikes. I don’t play the rose-colored-glasses game.Just stop. No need for negative Nancy. Are you BW Lion under a different name?
Glad I went to one. Great history and tradition. The stadium is a dump.You don’t like the Rose Bowl? It’s nice over there.
I went last time we faced USC and I have to say, the USC fans were very classy. Had a great time.
That’s okay. @PSUJam forgot Jan 2nd was an official holidayThat wasn’t my point. I forgot Jan 1 was a Sunday.
I was there. Like the Fiesta and Cotton better.You don’t like the Rose Bowl? It’s nice over there.

Eh, it’s alright. The surrounding area is very nice. Very festive on gameday. Beautiful location in SoCal.Glad I went to one. Great history and tradition. The stadium is a dump.
What is your point? Do you have significant money or life/death on the line? Sit back, be quiet, and cheer for PSU. You throwing a fit isn’t changing anything.So being #8 does nothing other than guarantee a Cotton Bowl match up vs Tulane?
A game PSU could very well lose.
The realist should see that PSU went from preseason unranked and projected 7-9 wins to finishing top 10 with 10 wins. The 2 losses were to top 5 ranked teams. They aren’t quite there yet, but there was massive improvement over the results from the last two seasons and there are some really good freshman on this team. If your standards are that high, you should root for UGA or Bama because you’ll be disappointed with every other team in America most years. Life’s too short. Enjoy the victories or you’ll never be happy.No. I’m a realist, and I call balls and strikes. I don’t play the rose-colored-glasses game.
Put him on ignore. Makes life easier.What is your point? Do you have significant money or life/death on the line? Sit back, be quiet, and cheer for PSU. You throwing a fit isn’t changing anything.
The committee has never taken a 2 loss team.I still believe that if TCU or USC lose their Championship game, OSU moves into #4 and If both lose Bama to #3 and OSU to #4.
Good call. We need to start voting people off the board who are clearly trolls and/or idiots.Put him on ignore. Makes life easier.
I’d LOVE to see that building. Also could be cold down there Texas is weird weather wiseUnlike you, most fans don’t attend bowl games for the “venue”
How old are you and how long have you been watching PSU football? There’s been a lot of years to call balls and strikes and not look through rose colored glasses. Why are you picking this one to overanalyze?No. I’m a realist, and I call balls and strikes. I don’t play the rose-colored-glasses game.
Never cold in Jerry WorldI’d LOVE to see that building. Also could be cold down there Texas is weird weather wise
Which am I?Good call. We need to start voting people off the board who are clearly trolls and/or idiots.
Exactly what I was thinking. I have people in Bourne may do this (if they do)Never cold in Jerry World
This ain't the late 70's/early 80's. That was 40 or so years ago. **** happens. Maybe if a legend hadn't held on for a couple decades too long, we wouldn't be in this mess.Sigh.

GO STATE BEAT BLUE HENSHow old are you and how long have you been watching PSU football? There’s been a lot of years to call balls and strikes and not look through rose colored glasses. Why are you picking this one to overanalyze?
Yeah, a 10-2 Bama over a 12-1 TCU? I mean anything is possible but would not be consistent with past decisions. I could kind of see it if Bama were conference champ since you could use that to justify but don’t see it.The committee has never taken a 2 loss team.
The correct answer is “neither” but I’m enjoying this game.
If I have an "ilk," we're, by definition, not unique. Good going, sport. My "ilk" doesn't appreciate total douchebags who get off on attempting to dox people on a football message board for no reason ... especially when the attempted doxxing is way off point and only meant to harass and disparage others. And especially when these total douchebags brag about how they don't care if one of their many screennames they're using at the same time gets banned, because they have an infinite amount of them. And especially when these total douchebags spend their time being racist POSs, attempt to disparage only coaches who are POC (Franklin, Seider, etc.), going to such extremes that they'll lie and make up easily disproven nonsense (and never own up to it, even when they're affirmatively proven wrong, by video, on their latest ridiculous attempt), just to attack them. And especially when these total douchebags come on here saying how awful the board is, and how it'll fold up in no time. You're just an objectively bad person, through and through. Go back to your neo-nazi haven (the politics board on the old site), you worthless POS. With all due respect (which is none).You and your ilk are unique.
Fixed.I’d LOVE to see that building. Also could be cold down there Texas is weird.
Good grief. Shouldn’t you be winterizing those jet skis?GO STATE BEAT BLUE HENS

Criticism of Franklin is neo-Nazi racism. Is that what you really think?If I have an "ilk," we're, by definition, not unique. Good going, sport.

You are both a fan and a troll. You want PSU to reach its highest potential but you hate that it will be under CJF.Which am I?
Go sleep it off, sport.WOW nazi talk from moogs. Good times good times
Why did you completely and totally edit your initial response? And come up with this? I was speaking to a particular poster. If you feel somehow implicated in that response, that's a you problem, not a me problem. But it's duly noted.Criticism of Franklin is neo-Nazi racism. Is that what you really think?
Could you be a bigot Moogy?Why did you completely and totally edit your initial response? And come up with this? I was speaking to a particular poster. If you feel somehow implicated in that response, that's a you problem, not a me problem. But it's duly noted.
I could be, but I'm not. I'm sad to see you implicate yourself in comments made to a specific individual who wasn't you. But that's entirely up to you. Seeing as you doubled down now, we'll just go ahead and put you firmly in the BW Husker camp. Good going, sport.Could you be a bigot Moogy?
