I'd rather have Becht than Underwood (may regret this later but)

m.knox · 2026-10-17T15:52:39-0500

Dixon is on fire.

Marshall2323 · 2026-10-17T15:52:46-0500

I said all week. This is a winnable game.

Phils rug · 2026-10-17T15:53:17-0500

Great stop, too much talking though

Big_O · 2026-10-17T15:54:25-0500

Since #19 for UM can’t play QB he decides to go MMA instead.

Agreed--but they all talk too much--like 95% of players. Just this generation of kids.

Michigan is definitely garbage.

I think people figured we were MORE garbage, though. And honestly, based on how we played the last 3 games, that was not an unfair assessment.

Marshall2323 · 2026-10-17T15:55:32-0500

A very very old coaches perspective. Play conservative until Michigan proves they can move the ball.

PSUfreak2008 · 2026-10-17T15:55:37-0500

I wish our guys would prove they are not pussies before firing up UM and giving them motivation.

I’ll take it

Last week was a glimmer of hope

I'll say I'm multi-tasking today. I'm refurbishing some patio furniture and watching paint dry at the same time.

Michigan's defense is very, very good. Their offense is very, very bad
Again, we were very competitive in every game other than Northwestern--everyone here oversells how bad we were in those losses.

I'm shocked their O is that bad. I thought they would run, run, run. And they should.

Phils rug · 2026-10-17T15:58:44-0500

Great catch by Sowell

KingLando · 2026-10-17T15:59:02-0500

If Sowell is healthy when Howard returns we could run the table

Winning this game (despite Michigan being trash) would be a massive boost for this team's confidence, IMO. They manage to escape with a W, that could be the start of something.

Defender's jockstrap is on the field.

PSUForever · 2026-10-17T16:00:00-0500

Our run game is hideous. Biggest disappointment among a bunch of disappointments.

That may be one or two wins in a row.

Where? At the Nittany Mall? With what?

PSUcup · 2026-10-17T16:00:49-0500

Wait. We called a TO there ???

You comprehend aside from Northwestern we've been in every single game, right?
A player like Howard is a game changer. We're 5-1 with him right now
You think we're way worse than we are

12bflying · 2026-10-17T16:02:18-0500

The official on an office phone from whenever calling support. Love it!

KingLando · 2026-10-17T16:02:22-0500

PSUcup said:

Yeah, that makes no sense--the whole purpose of running should have been to make sure Michigan doesn't get the ball back

It's a victory if you can bmget your opponent to play your game.

PSUcup · 2026-10-17T16:03:06-0500

And he runs out of bounds my god

No need to stick your elbow out #4....

LMTLION · 2026-10-17T16:03:33-0500

Stupid mistake my Eskildsen

PSUcup · 2026-10-17T16:03:36-0500

this team is both bad and dumb

PSUAVLNC · 2026-10-17T16:04:07-0500

Penn State would NEVER get that flag!!! What BS

PSUcup · 2026-10-17T16:04:19-0500

That was absolutely horrific clock management that series

Marshall2323 · 2026-10-17T16:04:33-0500

Time management is not a strength of this staff.

KingLando · 2026-10-17T16:04:37-0500

Second week in a row with bad clock management by MC. This one gives Michigan a possession with far more time than they should hvae

What if it’s the other team’s game too?

Calabrin · 2026-10-17T16:04:54-0500

3rd and 16 and they throw to the line of scrimmage.

FK3JM · 2026-10-17T16:05:00-0500

Eskildson is absolute garbage and I believe top 10 on the team in NIL.
