Official PSU - Auburn game thread

[ManxomeLion]

Even a FG is a win for Auburn IMHO.

Worst game day coach in the B1G with Frost gone.

Franklin does a lot of things well, but 4th down calls isn't one of them.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

nice sack on 3rd down by Curtis Jacobs.

 

[ILLINOISLION]

Nice completion by Auburn on the 3rd & 7. They are down to the 8.

I think their RT jumped the snap count!

 

[m.knox]

Nice sack.

Franklin only spotted them 3.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

Auburn with a 31-yard FG, with 8:20 left in the 1st qtr., 3-0, Auburn

 

[blion72]

I'm at the game....was there a false start by the right tackle on that 3rd down? Looked like it

Yes just replayed and was clear. BIG refs didn’t see it. Moron call on 4th down was root cause though

 

[leinbacker]

I'm at the game....was there a false start by the right tackle on that 3rd down? Looked like it

It was a false start, about half second early

 

[ManxomeLion]

May have been a win for the defense but Franklin likely just ceded Auburn 3pts. Franklin seems to have a perpetual underdog mentality which shows on key 4th downs.

 

[psuno1]

4th & 1 at midfield ... questionable to go for it on the 1st drive ... not sure if PSU got it.

and they didn't convert. PSU has run that play too often on short yardage ... Auburn was ready for it.

and a QB sneak come on Franklin

 

[Bene]

Penn State 0, Franklin 3

Not a Franklin hater but wish he would let those million dollar coaches coach.

 

[WVilleLion]

Damn some of you some whiny folks. You are giving the other board a run for the money.

 

[VaDave4PSU]

Excellent hold there. I don't know if Auburn can drive full length. Jacobs came up big on the sack. Nothing but pass rushers in on that play. Auburn should have run left and they probably come close to scoring.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

here's the hit that Cliff took on 3rd down. Looks legal to me.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

great, Keyvone Lee down after the 1st play of the second PSU O series

 

[Erial_Lion]

here's the hit that Cliff took on 3rd down. Looks legal to me.

Completely clean…rare to see defenders keep their heads up these days on those plays.

 

[RochLion]

Friggin announcers are A-holes. They couldn't see the issue with Lee. Pretty apparent he flexed that knee.

 

[BiochemPSU]

could someone else run the ball.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

wow, nice completion to Tinsley on 3rd down. Cliff had a lot of time, made a nice read, and made an excellent throw

 

[ManxomeLion]

Explosive play or bust!

 

[ManxomeLion]

Nice run by Allen!

 

[grinagrin]

We have a lot more success running when Cliff starts under center.

 

[ManxomeLion]

Nice reception by Tinsley!

 

[Tom McAndrew]

Tinsely inside the 10. Great throws by Cliff!!!

 

[DELion]

Explosive play or bust!

Wish granted!

 

[Tom McAndrew]

Cliff on a keeper for the TD!!!

 

[ManxomeLion]

TD Clifford!

 

[VetsClub78]

Call him "Wheels Clifford!"

 

[ILLINOISLION]

PSU 7 Auburn 0 Franklin -3

 

[Tom McAndrew]

After the PAT, it's 7-3, PSU, with 4:21 left in the game

75-yard drive by PSU

 

[psuno1]

It was a false start, about half second early

Right Tackle was early no call

I think their RT jumped the snap count!

 

[VaDave4PSU]

Please don't run Clifford up the middle here...

*as Ford motions out*


...OK, touchdown. Yurcich knows more than I do. LOL

Tinsley boys. The win of the transfer portal.

 

[PSUSignore]

Friggin announcers are A-holes. They couldn't see the issue with Lee. Pretty apparent he flexed that knee.

CBS is all SEC so they are going to be homers. And Danielson is pretty terrible.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

Karen King with a nice defending job at CB on a deep pass by Auburn

 

[Tom McAndrew]

PSU blitzes, but leaves a gap wide open, and Finley runs for a 1st down

 

[ManxomeLion]

Ok turnover time for the D!

 

[PSUSignore]

#11 showing flashes of his jersey number there.

 

[leinbacker]

Lavarrr!!

 

[Tom McAndrew]

damn, how the heck do we give up a 1st down on a 3rd & 20? smh

 

[ILLINOISLION]

Our 3rd & 20 D doesn’t miss a beat.

 

[WestSideLion]

damn, how the heck do we give up a 1st down on a 3rd & 20? smh

Unreal breakdown there, but it feels more common than we’d like here.
