THE OFFICIAL MCANDREW PSU-CMU GAME THREAD!

[Bones80]

Score to start the second half and they start to pull away. Three and out and it’s a nail biter.

Score to start the second half and they start to pull away.

what would be the fun in that?

 

[ILLINOISLION]

Clifford’s gotta take the short wide open receivers, our receivers gotta make the catches that CMU receivers are making and when Clifford’s flushed out of the pocket he’s gotta take the 10-15 yds that are right in front of him. run the fudging ball!

 

[ManxomeLion]

The unspoken is does JF put in Allar , just to bring Cliff down to earth, or continue hanging with the off target Cliff.

Personally I'd rather go through growing pains with a new QB THIS season and have insurance against a Clifford injury and have an experienced QB next season. Nothing against Clifford but we know his ceiling, we know he's prone to injury and we know he's not back next year. I just hope Allar gets meaningful snaps this season.

 

[CDLionFL]

Annnnnnd there's the Big Ten one holding call on a big play.

 

[ManxomeLion]

Of course the first holding is called against PSU

 

[ManxomeLion]

Well Special Teams hasn't gotten a lot of attention this season. Would be nice for that to change this game!

 

[Nittany1865Farmer]

Thank you Strange!! TD!
Still needing to audition for a kicker on PAT....

Maybe Chad Powers can kick PAT's. Think PAT's...make PAT's

 

[BW Lion]

Of course. I think this is a B1G crew. Either that or this ref got demoted to the MAC. I recognize him

 

[ManxomeLion]

Well Special Teams hasn't gotten a lot of attention this season. Would be nice for that to change this game!

To clarify ...I meant that in terms of muffed punts, not missed extra points....

 

[psuno1]

Great 4 games for the punter

 

[PSU87]

How was that not a freakin hold on that play?????

 

[troutrus]

The Choctaws seem to have more team speed than Auburn. I think we need to keep running up the middle.

 

[ILLINOISLION]

So the first play of the second half, a 15 yd keeper by Clifford.

ABOUT FUDGING TIME!

 

[CDLionFL]

This defense gives up a lot of chunk plays.

 

[Classof09]

Idea for a drinking game - every time Millen says ‘running behind your pads’. Stupid!

 

[FTLPSU]

Smelling an INT coming....

 

[CDLionFL]

Why wouldn't you decline that penalty on 3rd and goal??

 

[PSU87]

Why wouldn't you decline that penalty on 3rd and goal??

Exactly.

 

[ManxomeLion]

3rd and 30 lol

 

[Nittany1865Farmer]

Maybe Millen is already enjoying the new Alcohol sales rule at Beaver Stadium and needs to told it's "Last Call"....

 

[CDLionFL]

You got really lucky on that dumbass decision, Franklin.

 

[Nittany1865Farmer]

Why wouldn't you decline that penalty on 3rd and goal??

maybe CJF thought to push them back further in case of trying a FG.....

 

[Bkmtnittany1]

Idea for a drinking game - every time Millen says ‘running behind your pads’. Stupid!

Or..better yet...."running with your eyes!"

 

[CoolBean]

this QB shredded the PSU defense LOL

 

[FTLPSU]

Why wouldn't you decline that penalty on 3rd and goal??

Push them out of FG probability and put them in Passing down---become predictable-issue is we ain't covering very well right now SMH

 

[ManxomeLion]

Why wouldn't you decline that penalty on 3rd and goal??

One more opportunity for an "explosive play". (Tic)
Question is, for which team...

 

[Big_O]

Why do you give them an extra chance after you have them 4th and 20? The Franklin game decisions of old are back.

 

[PSU87]

Catch. The. Damn. Ball.

 

[CDLionFL]

Even though that was coming back, that's such a terrible throw by an experienced QB.

 

[CDLionFL]

maybe CJF thought to push them back further in case of trying a FG.....

I was fearing a defensive penalty that would give them an automatic 1st down.

 

[PSU87]

I was fearing a defensive penalty that would give them an automatic 1st down.

I was fearing the exact same thing.... a defensive holding or PI

 

[Nohow]

Bad call.

 

[AvgUser]

I must acknowledge the excellent punting this year.

 

[ManxomeLion]

Punt and win field position!

 

[psuro]

Good thing they are selling beer at the stadium.

 

[Shadow99]

What's up with CMU receivers with successful one-handed catches?

 

[WestSideLion]

At least Coach Franklin hasn’t lost the ability to snuff out optimism as soon as it arrives. Wow.

 

[PSU87]

What's up with CMU receivers with successful one-handed catches?

They took advantage of the new Beaver Stadium beer sales
