Official PSU - Rutgers '25 game thread

[Catch1lion]

You think you’re getting Ateam for two 5-6 teams in November?

A good thought for those thinking of purchasing Pinstripe Bowl tickets

 

[CyphaPSU]

Kaytron would be a relatively high draft pick (for running backs) if he had the speed not to get caught from behind. He’s got everything else.

Rutgers has 2 TOs. If PSU can pick up a 1st down (at the 8), the game will be over.

If they don't get the 1st, they'll have to kick a FG, and Rutgers will have a chance to tie (or take the lead)

Please. Get the first down. I can't take this. We've already made the rutgres QB look like Mahomes.

Don't purchase tickets should be the only thought--wait until we see the opt outs lol

 

[laKavosiey-st lion]

As are you. Should we do some mental gymnastics? Math problems perhaps?

slo but flush = confusie

Projected 5th best back. 10 is 3.

 

[LionsAndBears]

Need 1 more 1st down here. Don't want our D back on the field!

 

[Player2BNamedL8r]

Get 5 yards and ice it

 

[Paws057]

1000 yards of offense!

 

[Ludd]

Pick it up here and it’s ball game.

 

[AvgUser]

He's fast enough--kid is special

NOT fast enough

but still very effective.

Get 5 yards and ice it

This is AKs offens

 

[Still in State Colllege]

What nonsense will we see from the OC here?

 

[trufan]

1000 yards of offense!

NBA all-star game has nothing on this.

 

[AvgUser]

Why not roll out some and spread the D.

 

[LionsAndBears]

Kick the FG!!!

 

[KingLando]

NOT fast enough

but still very effective.

He's fast enough lol

 

[Paws057]

Kick the field goal

 

[AvgUser]

kick it

 

[EricStratton-RushChairman]

Joe calling that play down from heaven

 

[Ludd]

Pick it up here and it’s ball game.

And of course, we don’t.

 

[KingLando]

Kick the FG!!!

Nah--it will get blocked lol
Make them go 90

[Psu00]

This coaching staff never learns. Run it up the middle 3 plays and don’t get the 1st.

 

[Paws057]

Got lucky there

 

[Erial_Lion]

illegal blindside block against PSU (Pena, blocking on a safety)

Jack Ham does not feel it's a blindside block

I’m surprised that Ham questioned it…seemed like a pretty textbook blind-side block.

 

[Lil Nicky Scarfo]

Woohoo! Iced it

 

[Still in State Colllege]

Why not roll out some and spread the D.

I think Grunk is pretty gimpy

 

[LionsAndBears]

Still hate the call.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

1st: Kaytron for 5 - 6 yards, Rutgers calls TO with 1:54 left. They have 1 left
2nd & 5: Kaytron for 3, Rutgers calls TO with 1:50 left. They have no TOs left
3rd & 2: huge play. Singleton & Allen in. Kaytron for no gain
4th & 2: PSU is letting the clock run
4th & 2: PSU tried to get Rutgers to jump, but called TO at 1:04, as the play call was running out
4th & 2: Rapp for a 1st down.

Ball game!!!!!

 

[laKavosiey-st lion]

Nonsense is the perfect word on the perfect last page of this thread

 

[Knickslions69]

You the man Terry!!

 

[AvgUser]

Nah--it will get blocked lol
Make them go 90

Our D couldn’t stop squat.
have you not watched us?

 

[Phlebitis]

Now they can go get their asses handed to them by Mizzou.

 

[KingLando]

It was the right decision--don't like the play call but it worked
We escape Rutgers lol
Hopefully that's the end of any coaching era with someone who worked for Franklin or Paterno

 

[Player2BNamedL8r]

17 isn’t perfect, but he’s cool under pressure

 

[laKavosiey-st lion]

S A D Rutgers hahaha

 

[HarrisburgDave]

Who is going to the bowl game?

 

[trufan]

Never a doubt!

 

[Tom McAndrew]

PSU takes a knee, and that will be the last play.

Final: 40-36, PSU

PSU is Bowl eligible, with this win

A wild game. Congrats to PSU, to the seniors, and to Terry Smith and the staff.

I didn't think so. The angle showed them facing dead on with each other.
