Official PSU - Rutgers Game Thread....

[anon1786720894]

PSU held rutgres to 72 yards of O at home and only leads 7-0 at half. Unfortunately, the PSU O only ground out 120 yards against the mighty rutgres D. This is a sad day for PSU football fans. The loss to Illinois was not a fluke.

Sacre bleu, Veillieux!!

The 15 yd. PF by Rutgres was Penn States best offensive play this game.

That was an explosive penalty. We need more of those.

Big 10 announces the clock will be running in the 2nd half of OSU MSU game.

 

[PSU87]

just realized that the the place I'm at for a conference is blocking my ability to stream the game on my computer. Sounds as though it's a good game to not be able to view.

Where in China are you

 

[Big_O]

Maybe Allar won’t have to play next year as a true freshman. Villeaux might have something to say about that.

I have been impressed with his poise and play making ability. He has just been an unknown quantity since he hasn’t played since 2019.

CV is making a Pat Devlin-like debut. I'm not fond of the play-calling requiring him to run so much....it's almost as if Franklin and Yurcich forget about the lack of QB depth on roster.

 

[Nitwit]

If we don’t turn the ball over we win. I’m a little surprised we haven’t gotten any turnovers ourselves yet but hopefully a pick will happen. I’m not sure what the RU quarterback substitution stuff that was happening was intending to accomplish but the new QB looked quicker than #0.

I can't see or even hear the game on radio or Internet radio because "content not allowed in your area" and this is West Virginia. Thank goodness for the board here to keep updated on the game.

Making 6-4 look like a shootout.

Until that TD I wasn't sure we could score 4 pts

Now, just wait a minute.

We must all reserve judgement until he can actually prove that he can hand the ball OFF like Pat Devlin!!

Its part of the Penn State QB experience. You are going to have to run on designed draws 3-5 times a game for very short yardage and a punishing hit. It results every year in injured QBs, but its worth the price of admission.

 

[anon1786720894]

tOSU is just moving the ball at will. Damn. They have 485 yards of O and a chance to go up 49 - 0 with over a minute left in the half. Make that 501 yards of O and a 49-0 lead.

 

[m.knox]

That was an explosive penalty. We need more of those.

Now that would be damn funny. A beat writer asking Franklin about "explosive penalties" in the game......

 

[bdgan]

I liked the TD but not the play call. Veilleux had to make a tough pass while rolling out.

Only 2 WRs, 9 blocking. I hate that we don't throw the ball high to our TEs in the EZ.

But it worked this time.

Of course I'd also like to see a FB from time to time. It worked for Iowa & Illinois.

Jones or Geiger?

But this is the first thing we've been able to feel happy about

[TiogaLion]

Anyone else done with Dotson returning punts? How many has he actually caught this year?

 

[laKavosiey-st lion]

I like 9 (again)

 

[PrtLng Lion]

Anyone else done with Dotson returning punts? How many has he actually caught this year?

I've been wondering why he's been unable to return many, almost every one is a fair catch.

Maybe coaching staff content with sure hands catching and not bumbling the ball.

 

[psualt]

Hole was there for Lee.

Wow, Millen even sang us us song.

That new heart agrees with him !!!!!!

 

[NitneLiun]

I am so impressed with Penn State today. We have to get Franklin locked into a 10-yr contract as soon as possible.

 

[fastlax16]

So who is the backup at the moment without Roberson or cliff available?

 

[Jim from Spicewood]

A turnover would be nice right about now.

Explosive fair catches.

C’mon 12

I'm not sure how he's so certain RU's RB will make an NFL roster. Not sure I see that.

 

[91Joe95]

Another explosive big chunk fair catch play.

 

[Nohow]

So who is the backup at the moment without Roberson or cliff available?

You will find out if they keep running the qb.

I was trying to get ahead of it. Warren wildcat for the remainder would be my guess.

 

[GregInPitt]

Who said Roberson was not available? It was a week ago that Franklin said Veilleux had passed Roberson on the depth chart.

I suspect that Clifford would play again.

But the walk on Stahl took all the snaps supposedly in the last practice of the week.

I was told he was out sick.

Explosive fair catches.

I know some guys who are very explosive eating and drinking at the tailgates. Luckily, the Job Johnnies are there to keep them from explosive scoring in the parking lots.....

 

[GregInPitt]

Veilleux just reminded me that QB's that can throw accurately can actually hit a receiver in stride and facilitate YAC.

As a PSU fan, I had forgotten........
