Official '26 PSU - Minnesota game thread

[Tom McAndrew]

2nd & 21, and Rocco gets sacked again for a 3 yard loss.

3rd & 24

smh

 

[KingLando]

Just run the ball on third down

 

[Tom McAndrew]

Hmm, Wallace picks up 16 yards on a run.

4th & 8, so PSU will punt

 

[MtNittany]

Gee. Run the ball in a 35 degree drizzle. Gain yards.

Go figure.

 

[Psumatt85]

We're up 21--yes, it would be nice to win 77-0 but the only objective is to win. We're going to win by 2 scores or more

I think we are lucky they had to fly out this morning. They were asleep in the first hslf

 

[Phils rug]

GREAT coverage on the punt!

 

[Calabrin]

What a goof! Why’d he field that punt? Let it roll into the end zone, dummy!

 

[Player2BNamedL8r]

Thank God the gophers are capable of stupid plays too.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

Minny elects to field the PSU punt at their 2, and gets tackled at their 3. Great punt, and even better coverage.

Honestly, I get what you're saying but I feel like people are trying to discredit anything this team does (not you per se, just in general)
Teams with big leads against opponents of similar talent usually see that gap close
We're going to win--I'm content with that--I have no delusions this is a good team

 

[Phils rug]

D gets the three and out

 

[SouthHalls410]

Do they play like crap in the second half so there are more things for us to discuss?

 

[Phils rug]

If this first play isn't a run, we riot

 

[PSUAVLNC]

Please just run the ball!!

 

[KingLando]

Good defense

 

[Phils rug]

Manske in

 

[KingLando]

If this first play isn't a run, we riot

 

[Calabrin]

Let someone else play, Matt!

 

[Tom McAndrew]

Manske is in

 

[Ludd]

It would nice if our center could snap the ball.

 

[Phils rug]

1st down peoples

 

[PSUAVLNC]

OMG a 1st down!!!!!!

 

[Phils rug]

Manske passes for the 1st down

 

[KingLando]

Manske passes for the 1st down

Now we have a QB controversy lol

 

[Phils rug]

TD PSU!!!!! Manske to Peoples

 

[Tom McAndrew]

TD, Peoples, on a wheel route!!!!!

 

[JoePaMajorCFBrecord409Ws]

OMG a TD!

 

[Calabrin]

Becht finishes the day with one of the weirdest QB lines I’ve ever seen:

9/15, 84 yards, 3 TD

 

[KingLando]

Peoples did a nice job adjusting to that ball (unlike Q last week) but it wasn't a good throw

 

[Knickslions69]

Asswhipping

 

[Tom McAndrew]

With the PAT, it's 42-14, PSU, with 2:51 left in the game

 

[CyphaPSU]

I like that. And I like that it was those two players involved in the score.

 

[Phils rug]

Box in upper left corner says we have 100% chance to win but it's not over because Minny still has a 1% chance.

AJ Hawk doing the calculations

 

[KingLando]

Becht finishes the day with one of the weirdest QB lines I’ve ever seen:

9/15, 84 yards, 3 TD

Efficient lol

 

[Shifty15]

Becht finishes the day with one of the weirdest QB lines I’ve ever seen:

9/15, 84 yards, 3 TD

And 32 sacks!

 

[Player2BNamedL8r]

I’d like to see Manske play more down the stretch…seen enough of the Rocco show.

 

[PSUForever]

Once again a sub par 2nd half. Weird how bad we can play in a game we are playing so well in. Not expecting to win 50-0 but wow it's like flip the switch and let's play a horrid quarter on both offense and defense.

As I type this we score but it doesn't take away from that horrid play in the 2nd half of the third quarter into the 4th.

 

[Shifty15]

Peoples did a nice job adjusting to that ball (unlike Q last week) but it wasn't a good throw

But a smart throw to lob it because he was wide open

 

[JoePaMajorCFBrecord409Ws]

Manske has already shown better pocket presence under pressure than Becht in one series. Got the ball out quick, dropped a dime and put the ball where only his guy could get it... or it would fall harmlessly incomplete.

 

[KingLando]

I’d like to see Manske play more down the stretch…seen enough of the Rocco show.

No team is benching their starting QB to play someone else
Rocco had 3 TDs today and we were leading by 21 when he left the game
The backup QB is everyone's favorite but playing Manske doesn't help us at all.
