Official PSU - Nebraska '25 game thread

INT, by Wheatley!!!!!

It may get overturned, as he trapped it against the turf

Update: it's ruled an incomplete pass

 

[Phils rug]

Almost

 

[AvgUser]

Some of you nutjobs are so laughable thinking Allen is a higher draft pick than Singleton. Singleton is a prototypical pro back - great blocker in pass-pro, exceptional receiver out of backfield and a much better big play black. Good chance Singleton is a 1st RD pick - Allen is a 3rd or 4th RD gamble.

So wrong

Was a nice try though…

 

[LB99]

Gotta give Terry a lot of credit for straightening out the offense. Refreshing to see us playing power football.

WRs are playing better all of a sudden also.

 

[Yogiman71]

Rhule being out coached by Terry Smith. Glad he signed a contract with N. Terry looking good tonight !

 

[WaffleShopper]

Great first half. Gotta bury them to start the 3rd and shut Rhule’s fat mouth.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

4th & 4, at their 46, with 0:06 left for kNU:

PSU calls TO

kNU receiver fumbles as he's hit, but kNU recover.

halftime, but a lot of flags on the field, as t

an unsportsmanlike on a kNU player and a PSU player

 

[Paws057]

Thank you for telling us it’s halftime!

 

[Nitt1300]

Too much talk from the refs- let them play

PSU gets ball first 2H as they deferred.

 

[WPB_lion]

You're all being ridiculous with the praise for Smith for beating Michigan State and Nebraska
He got rattled against Ohio State and blew the game against Indiana

You are being ridiculous for not recognizing the good job he is doing. This team lost Northwestern and UCLA (two of the worst teams in the BIG) and lost its starting QB just before Smith took over. This team is finally playing like it should have been playing at the beginning of the year. He turned this team around.

 

[Ludd]

Terry Smith is a good coach. Just line up and run the play, no more trickeration.

But let’s be consistent, stupid unnecessary roughness penalties….Franklin would get blamed for that.

 

[MM1994]

The team loves playing for Terry Smith, that is obvious.

 

[Nittering Nabob]

Wife #5 loves the Joe409 pin. Where would I find one to purchase?

So what NFL team is it that you are pro scout for?

JF being out coached by Terry Smith.

 

[Ludd]

JF being out coached by Terry Smith.

Funny, I’ve watched the whole game and haven’t seen JF anywhere.

 

[Ram20]

I donr advocate for Terry to get the job, but he is >>>>>>>>>>>>Franklin. Got both lines playing hard, simplified the defense, passing game going vertical occasionally. Simple stuff, looks way better irrespective of the competition.

 

[PAgeologist]

Don't have too big of a problem with the offsetting Unsportsmanlike penalties. Don't need cheap shots. Might as well nip it early.

Playing to the teams strengths.

To bare being ridiculous for not recognizing the good job he is doing. This team lost Northwestern and UCLA (two of the worst teams in the BIG) and lost its starting QB just before Smith took over. This team is finally playing like it should have been playing at the beginning of the year. He turned this team around.

Terry Smith has taken control and has this team playing inspired football. Give him his props and the players for not packing it in.

 

[Nittering Nabob]

You and your act are getting rather tiresome.

 

[Ludd]

So I’m quite sure if he doesn’t get the PSU job then another P4 team will pay him $8 million to run their program.

 

[SRURock24]

Funny, I’ve watched the whole game and haven’t seen JF anywhere.

I know because he totally blew it this year!

 

[LB99]

I'm warming up to it. He exudes integrity and has a firm grasp of x and os. The team is clearly rallying around him.

He was a very successful head coach at Gateway HS.

 

[Lil Nicky Scarfo]

So what NFL team is it that you are pro scout for?

I’m thinking the Jets

 

[Ludd]

You and your act are getting rather tiresome.

Yeah, I’ve kind of felt that way about many others for the past 11 years…welcome to the party.

 

[Catch1lion]

TY Coach Smith .

 

[Nitt1300]

Terry is doing a good job, That said, it's a huge jump from position coach to HC and too much of a gamble. imo.

 

[Ludd]

So what NFL team is it that you are pro scout for?

He doesn’t have to be, it’s how the actual NFL scouts see it too.

 

[OhioLion]

I’m thinking the Jets

Browns!!

 

[KingLando]

This team is finally playing like it should have been playing at the beginning of the year. He turned this team around.

He's done nothing in all honesty--I'm glad he likely gets a couple wins but he has a huge talent advantage--he should win.
This team lost to UCLA and Northwestern because of coaching--being better than Franklin this year isn't an impressive feat. He was fired for a reason.
If this was your only expectation before the year I don't know what to say.
Again, Franklin destroyed this team--Smith is doing a nice job but if he's the HC we've failed miserably.

Wife #5 loves the Joe409 pin. Where would I find one to purchase?

Wouldn’t it be great if there was a way to search for such an item??

 

[SleepyLion]

MRob making some TS recommendations.

 

[Nittering Nabob]

MRob just laid down the gauntlet to Pat Kraft.

 

[LB99]

Wow. MRob saying players staying if Smith gets the job. He’s also advocating for it also. Do the recruits come back if Smith is named HC? He has been a key recruiter for PSU.

 

[Ram20]

Just admit guys, you miss the designed QB draws, LOL. Franklin was such a clown.

 

[Ludd]

MRob making some TS recommendations.

That wasn’t just a recommendation, that was pleading for TS.
