Whatever dude. You probably will never get as many breaks in the first half of a game ever again so enjoy the good luck there, might have wanted that luck vs someone else though lol. Your team played well and certainly made a statement. Iowa will regroup and be OK in the west. PSU will probably end up 9-3 or so …. Take care.
Excuses for the fake injuries and now you're using turnovers as excuses for getting pummeled...lol.

If PSU got crushed like Iowa did tonight the last thing I'm doing is making excuses.

You must be from Penn ... your education level is near zero and you cannot read. Where did I make an excuse?

More educated than this guy
The bar is low when you use him as an example lol. Seriously, you don't think you got a sh*t ton of favorable bounces and calls in the first half? I've rarely seen anything like it ... my subtle dig on Iowa (which I understand, subtle things may get by you) was that PSU wasted that good fortune on a night where you didn't need it. Usually those things even out over a season ... but then again, I forget that you guys feel the Big 10 has been conspiring against you since you joined the league (refs, scheduling, the whole 9 yards) LOL.

Come on man, absolutely NO ONE was accusing your QB of faking his injury. You guys are making things up now. I documented the 5 plays in question. On 3 out of 5 Iowa just had a big gain ... it looked fishy and I am damn sure if the shoe was on the other foot, PSU fans would be complaining about Iowa stopping momentum. When the crowd is amped up for a big game, the crowd will react without really thinking (a poor excuse granted, but Iowa fans are no different than any other fan base in that regard). So it was unfortunate for the real injured players to hear boos.

After watching it again, only 2 of the injuries out of 5 still looked fishy ... #17 for sure, that was BS what he did, sorry man, he was running after the play on the backside then all of the sudden after the big play he has to fall down and needs assistance, then a few plays later he is back in??? #1 stopped the game after a big gain, got a message from the trainer on the field, jumped up and jogged off the field (looked pretty bad, looked like a tactic to stop play, sorry it did), he was right back in the game after that.

Then you have Franklin's reputation for coaching his team to stop play (Iowa coaches knew about this and if you cry wolf by playing that game, you might not get the benefit of the doubt when there was a legit injury).

I wish Iowa fans didn't boo because you really don't know if there is a real injury or if gamesmanship is being applied, however on a couple of occasions in that '21 game the fans had a legit suspicion. You have to admit that the timing was very very suspicious.
What a clown post. By the way, fans booing and claiming players were faking injuries is one thing, but Fetentz’s comments reinforcing that conduct was beyond classless.

Funny how good teams like OSU and Michigan have never claimed Franklin had his players fake injuries clown.

I think Iowa has more to worry about than whether anyone accuses their opponent of faking an injury, or whether their fans booed players who had truly been hurt. They just got embarrassed on national TV in front of 108,000 fans. They better find an offense soon or it’s going to be a very long season for them.

He was exposed at Vandy for coaching his players to fake injuries, sorry clown.
Says who doofus. How about a citation and figment of your imagination doesn’t count. By the way, the only rat smell Ferentz smelled on Saturday was emanating from his backside
