Official '26 PSU - USC game thread

Throw=FirstDown/2

 

[MM1994]

If you are confident in the offensive you don't waste so much time.

 

[Ludd]

I thought Becht was a better runner.

He’s a terrible runner.

 

[FK3JM]

This team is stupid and gutless.

 

[KingLando]

First time tonight Becht didn't fall to the ground when he took off--good timing for it

 

[KingLando]

Again with the throw short of the first. Why?

Blackledge explained it

 

[Player2BNamedL8r]

Again, credit where it’s due. Nice play by Becht.

 

[Phlebitis]

Very nice job to steal a FG there.

 

[Phils rug]

Fg good, 17-17

 

[Tom McAndrew]

PSU with a 48-yard FG attempt.

Barker's kick is good.

17-17, at the half

 

[cntblvitsbutter]

Nice! right down the middle.

 

[Player2BNamedL8r]

Nice half, all things considered

 

[KingLando]

I think every single one of us would have taken "tied at the half" before the game kicked off

 

[Nittany1865Farmer]

Tie game at the half for the battle of the very mediocre awful football teams......

 

[cntblvitsbutter]

Blackledge explained it

Missed it. What'd he say?

 

[DaytonRickster]

I

Y'all know the Bama-Georgia game is on, too, right?

'I've been switching back & forth.

 

[Ludd]

I think every single one of us would have taken "tied at the half" before the game kicked off

No doubt.

 

[cntblvitsbutter]

USC would be in big trouble without Mailava.

 

[KingLando]

Tie game at the half for the battle of the very mediocre awful football teams......

That's 90% of game these days

 

[psuno1]

At least they are playing hard and act like want to be there unlike Northwestern last week.

 

[op2]

I can't stand all the noise and the PA announcer just watching on TV. I can't imagine what it would be like to actually be in the stadium. Does that band even play anymore?

I guess professional wrestling was ahead of its time.

 

[Moogy]

If you kids don't stop fighting, I'm going to turn this car around.

No ice cream for anyone.

 

[cntblvitsbutter]

At least they are playing hard and act like want to be there unlike Northwestern last week.

That's why whiteout is worth 3-7 points.

 

[Fred8811]

Just need some decent recruiting and its all good.

 

[Efejle]

Sowell down. At this point you gotta play some people who have not played but if you don't trust em then you gotta run ,12: and13 p.

 

[Phlebitis]

I think every single one of us would have taken "tied at the half" before the game kicked off

Even more so after the opening drive.

 

[KingLando]

Missed it. What'd he say?

Becht isn't taking any risk of turning the ball over--if he doesn't have the open throw deep he's immediately checking down
I think he was about to say something along the lines of he needs to take more risk but then the injury was shown

USC is 5-1 and ranked in the top 20…wouldn’t exactly call them awful or mediocre.

 

[rigi19041]

The difference is Franklin got hired before the early signing period started and Campbell didn't. Campbell was like a shopper in a store in the Soviet Union with a fist full of dollars to pick from empty sheldoes not float with transfers.

That excuse does not float with transfers. We're you expecting true freshman to be big contributors?


Campbells seniors can't block or tackle.

 

[creamery freak]

Missed it. What'd he say?

He said Lando doesn't know Jack

 

[KingLando]

At least they are playing hard and act like want to be there unlike Northwestern last week.

I still think Northwestern is way better than we realize
Their at Oregon, Iowa at Ohio State stretch will show us or prove me wrng

 

[KingLando]

USC is 5-1 and ranked in the top 20…wouldn’t exactly call them awful or mediocre.

Oregon and UCLA were both ranked and that was a dreadful game

 

[rigi19041]

That drop by Peoples is why Hansen plays more than Peoples

People has more carries and yards.


Campbell ruined the RBs. They all suk

 

[KingLando]

He said Lando doesn't know Jack

Nah--Todd adores me

 

[cntblvitsbutter]

I still think Northwestern is way better than we realize

Well, they did almost win at Indiana...

 

[KingLando]

People has more carries and yards.


Campbell ruined the RBs. They all suk

Watch the game
The blitz pick ups, the drop by Peoples, etc--if you want to say Peoples is the best runner that's cool--Hansen's the best back
Peoples and Hansen should both play and split reps--it's obvious and has been all year

 

[CoolBean]

what a kick

 

[creamery freak]

USC putting the ball on the ground twice and recovering both, could've made a huge difference if we come away with those. Scored on both drives

 

[bdgan]

He’s a terrible runner.

This site gives him a C for passing and an F for running

So we want a RB who can block but not run…got it.
