Official PSU - Minnesota Whiteout game thread

[BobPSU92]

Speechless.

 

[Midnighter]

Oh dear.

 

[Paws057]

Yep gotta have those big plays! Stupid throw

 

[Calabrin]

I think that EVERY time i see an opponent TE catch a ball

Yurcich said in the week that they need the TEs to block because the O-line sucks.

he said this right after he said he thinks the O-line has played well this year. You can’t make this stuff up.

 

[JoeBot409]

Arm punt

 

[VaDave4PSU]

Dumb *** selfish play by the safety, 4th down should have knocked it down.

Sorry he hurt himself, looked like he blew out his knee.

I actually didn't see it. Just read it on game cast. I was more or less cheering that game ending.

 

[Moogy]

This just in ... 10th year frosh Clifford shouldn't be the starting QB. Also, water's wet.

 

[AvgUser]

Parker Washington with the Deion SAnders tackling technique

 

[Tom McAndrew]

Well that INT sucked

 

[Shadow99]

Our tight ends have virtually disappeared, hopefully we'll see them tonite.

Well in all fairness, for everyone complaining about not enough of a certain type of play call, not enough targets for player x or touches for player y, there are only 3 plays each series to go around.

 

[Nittany1865Farmer]

I rushed home to see this same old script again?????

 

[CDLionFL]

Annnnd, what was wrong with Tinsley crossing wide open over the middle? Always gotta go deep. EXPLOSIVE PLAYS!!!

 

[EricStratton-RushChairman]

Just Clifford doing Clifford shiit. He will never be anything more than a bad bad qb

 

[Midnighter]

Man, Carter has nice instincts. Reminds me of Bowman.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

another false start by Minny, this time down by the student section on 3rd & 7. keep it up, students

 

[ManxomeLion]

And there's the Sean Clifford we've grown to fear. At least it's early. Keep them to a FG and Redemption Clifford will lead a better drive next series.

 

[Calabrin]

Penn State’s playbook:

1. Badly designed, conservative plays
2. Ridiculous, unnecessary home run plays

Conservative plays have led to two straight 3-and-outs.
Mindless home run play results in yet another poor throw by 6th-year QB and a pick.

Do they know how to run mid-yardage slants? How about a screen?

"Redemption Clifford"..... LOL

 

[Moogy]

Yeah, this offense should be living off short-mid route pass plays to the TE. Instead, they barely use them. It's mind-boggling. My mind is boggled.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

Minny with a 35-yard FG attempt, and it's good. 3-0, Minny, with 1:57 left in the 1st qtr.

 

[EricStratton-RushChairman]

I see a 9-6 game

 

[PSU87]

I see a 9-6 game

No way. Minny is gonna have to start faking injuries to slow our offense down.....

 

[Midnighter]

I see a 9-6 game

Think I predicted 19-16 PSU.

 

[HarrisburgDave]

Ducked one bullet

 

[84lion]

I see a 9-6 game

6-4 still possible

 

[grinagrin]

The Minny DE was lined up off side on the Clifford int. Doesn’t forgive a ****** pass and decision though.

They tried screens & related plays against Michigan and they got blown up with ease. Slants are a great idea, however. Clifford would probably dangerously throw them over the receivers' heads or behind them, however.

 

[Paws057]

This game seems familiar, almost like Groundhog Day….

 

[PSU12046]

No way. Minny is gonna have to start faking injuries to slow our offense down.....

and Iowa fans will boo

 

[AvgUser]

I see a 9-6 game

6-4 is still on the table

It's his alter ego. There's a pattern to this... (or so I hope)

Don’t forget taking 35 seconds for each snap so the D can get set!

 

[Karl_Havok]

It just seems like this team is coached by Sabermetrics with no feel for how the game is actually going.

 

[BobPSU92]

Allar is not in.

 

[HarrisburgDave]

Steve Jones is a dope. He does not think the offensive situation is desperate yet.

 

[Paws057]

The defenses look good because both offenses suck!

 

[Moogy]

At least they changed it up by starting a series by weakly running it up the middle yet again ... with a different RB

 

[BobPSU92]

Clifford complete to Theo Johnson.

I don’t get it.

 

[84lion]

Dang Cliff, that was almost INT no. 2!

 

[CDLionFL]

OMG A TIGHT END SIGHTING
