Football GAMEDAY THREAD - THE WHITE OUT -- Penn State vs. Iowa

[AWS1022]

Apparently Iowa is going to throw to their TE all night.

James Franklin didn't see something he liked on the Hawkeyes' second third down of the game and the Nittany Lions calls their first timeout of the half.

Looked like we had 1 guy for 2 with Dixon coming down to blitz.

 

[PSUWrestlingFanSince2011]

Is this necessary to have a long tv timeout here???

I don't get that one. Unless TV was wrong, play clock was about to expire.

Umm we didnt have a db covering their wr.

 

[PSUWrestlingFanSince2011]

Awful pass

 

[psu00]

Ughhh. Continued special teams errors. Don’t field the punt inside the 5.

 

[PSUWrestlingFanSince2011]

Guess we are going to keep running on every 1st down.

 

[fastlax16]

Blown facemask

 

[AvgUser]

WTF was that series. 🤬

 

[Dylan Callaghan-Croley]

Tough first drive for Penn State offensively and now Iowa will start on the Nittany Lions side of the field.

 

[PSUWrestlingFanSince2011]

Hes done that multiple times

Didn't understand the play calling on PSU first series and then a weak punt. So far exactly how Iowa wants to play.

Fielded a punt at the 5 then the OL got zero push.

 

[Marty Leap]

Refs missed a pretty obvious face mask on 1st down and the 2nd down play call by Mike Yurcich was pretty poor

 

[psu00]

PSU relies too much on constant 2 yard passes to the sideline. Iowa’s seen the tape and is all over it. Need to stretch the field deep today.

That's the punter we have. Decent but he's not going to boom it 50+

Yep don't know what's so hard about standing at the 10 and letting it go if it's over your head!

 

[KnightWhoSaysNit]

Allar was zeroed in on 2nd down. Had a man open if he would have looked.

 

[lazydave841]

I don't mind a run on first down. I don't like having Allen run East West. Then a check down to Allen on the short side. Then on 3rd, a pass to...the short side. Yurcich, you setting me up again?

 

[scrivener]

Play calling was utterly abysmal. Two attempts to Kaytron in east/west designed plays...he's not exactly a game breaker with speed.

 

[LandoComando]

Can't lose contain on McNamara....lucky he's not 100%

 

[ryoder1]

There was no one there?

 

[j-buff]

We are off to a terrible start

I still don't like wasting that "setup" last week

 

[psu00]

Yep and that’s part of my frustration with the coaching staff. You’ve seen this type of thing over and over yet they haven’t fixed it. Then something like that bites PSU in a game and the post game presser is the coaches saying they’ll have to work on it. 😡

 

[PSUWrestlingFanSince2011]

PSU defense have communication issues so far.

 

[PSUWrestlingFanSince2011]

We never throw on first down anymore.

 

[RickinDayton]

No one stayed home. Everyone went with the fake

 

[Dylan Callaghan-Croley]

TURNORVER!

Penn State's defense gets a huge turnover and takes over at their own 18 yard line. Play is under review.

 

[LandoComando]

No one stayed home. Everyone went with the fake

Right--that can't happen
Another big turnover

 

[Cali_Nittany]

Yes!

 

[PAgeologist]

We never throw on first down anymore.

Don't have too big of a problem with it backed up at the 5. But otherwise yeah I agree.

 

[Dylan Callaghan-Croley]

Call stands. Penn State's offense takes over.

 

[ryoder1]

That is what we needed, let's take advantage.

 

[PAgeologist]

That's a fumble.

 

[PAgeologist]

Nice snag on a high throw by Theo

 

[LandoComando]

Our run game is just underwhelming so far--hopefully at some point today it breaks out.

 

[RickinDayton]

Why is Yurcch running Allen east & west?

 

[Onionbelly]

Nice QB sneak!
