About as complete a game as could be played against a usually very stout opponent.

Hope some reporter asks Ferentz what he smells now.

The smell of napalm
In the morning.

 

[psu31trap]

This team has no reason to fear anyone. Both OSU and Michigan are beatable!

 

[psuro]

We just got lucky with those turnovers…without those, who knows what would have happened.

We still would have won.

 

[Ludd]

We still would have won.

I know, but many on here seem to think turnovers are gifts and have nothing to do with our defense.

Somewhere in Iowa an Iowa football mom just broke her glasses.

That’s what the lame announcers said. So tos don’t count? PSU dominated in every aspect.

From Michigan today:




The reality:

 

[marshall23]

I think someone force fed him rat poison.

 

[marshall23]

Stupid. Simply turn down the volume.

 

[BW Lion]

Joe Morehead and his Akron Zips are in OT vs Indiana

 

[ManxomeLion]

The smell of napalm
In the morning.

It smells like...Victory.

PSU certainly got some good breaks in the first half. I'm pretty sure that a short punt targeted at the back of an Iowa blocker wasn't by design. Same with Saunders being able to get back on his fumble. But yes, the PSU defense was relentless.

 

[manatree]

Drew finishes the day 25-37, 166 yds, 4 TD

Where’s the numerous objective critical soliloquies on the 12 incomplete passes and only 166 yards?

You are an ahole.

They definitely are.

Unwillingness or inability to be critical of your team doesn’t make you a better fan. Just a more ignorant one.

Which, again, is fine. But it’s a lot like having sneering contempt for the doctor because he’s studied medicine and you haven’t.

 

[ILLINOISLION]

My electricity went out @ 3 pm. It was back @ 5 pm. My cable/Internet went out around the same time and is still down. So for the White Out, I am listening to Steve and Jack with the radio coverage on my phone, and chatting with you guys. smh

Pay your bills…..!

 

[BobPSU92]

You’ll never be moderator with that attitude.

True. But there are a number of negative Nancies that seem to always pick out something to overanalyze and drag everyone down without acknowledging the positives. It gets really, really old. I get what he’s saying.

It's not easy to be the one who is tasked with pointing out how the doer of deeds falls short again and again.
Fortunately, there are always those who are willing to "step up."

Being constantly critical is fine I suppose, but it’s a lot like interrupting your oncologist to complain about your chipped nail while they’re trying to tell you that your lab results are all clear.

 

[PSUAVLNC]

Allars mom's message to him is a classic!!

 

[leinbacker]

I know, but many on here seem to think turnovers are gifts and have nothing to do with our defense.

Especially on a punt where the ball bounces off their player’s back

 

[Ludd]

I heard the same type crap about our five turnovers against Illinois where four of them were forced by the defense. When you have a team rattled, things happen.

Nitpicking doesn’t make you a better fan, it makes you a pompous a$$. No team plays a perfect game, so finding every little thing that went wrong in a win is stupid especially for a fan that has no influence on the team whatsoever.
