    6 times in the RED ZONE

    When CJF opted for a failed flashy attempt to score rather than take the 3 points, he gave the momentum to Michigan. This is only one of many like scenarios this year. Rather than make knee-jerk in-game decisions, CJF should have a coherent game plan and stick with it.

    Incoming: Elite Recruiting Class for Penn State University

    It seems that the offensive philosophy is to light up the scoreboard with big chunk yardage plays. Apparently this is not a sound philosophy for in-game management. While there were times I’d get frustrated with JoePa, he would always take the points available to him. He also would punt the ball...

    Franklin's Assessment of Good Recruits on Line is Pathetic

    Keep in mind that there’s been turnover on the OL coach. For years Dock Anderson served in that capacity, With coaching continuity, our OL seemed stronger then and our running game flourished. Give Trautwein some time to do that without Covid interruptions and I think you’ll see our offensive...

    Well Team At Least Showed Up to Play - Some Bad Breaks - Need Some Recruiting Help

    Th There is a lot of hype about the OSU-Michigan game but Michigan cannot begin to compete with OSU as PSU has. Their games are usually OSU blowouts. They may try to advertise it as a rivalry but it isn’t. OSU’s biggest conference rival is our beloved nittany lions.

    Took away a Buckeye turnover there

    The center fumbled the ball; the refs fumbled the call.

    Keys to Saturday's game

    How about some halftime adjustments? Last week vs. Illinois there were no adjustments at halftime. Also after the TD slant pattern to kLS there were no more. Illinois was supposed to have a weak pass defense and we did not exploit it. Could have brought Roberson for a series or two at least...
