    Sunday Post OSU Loss

    Spotted OSU their first TD with an egregious personal foul call. But agreed the offense didn’t do nearly enough to win

    I Really Miss Sean Spencer

    We had a defensive TD called back and a blatant late hit missed that would have likely netted us 3 points. Horrendous game in which we were dominated on the lines, but if anything, with better officiating, we may have snuck out of there with a win.

    Observation: Almost all negative posts blaming/calling out CJF since yesterday

    He’s not winning 9 or 10 this year and he had a losing record last year. Firing him with his buyout is a total non-starter, but there are some glaring issues that he seems incapable of fixing. His seat should be getting hotter.

    If we lose out, do you want Franklin gone?

    Would be 2 bad years in a row. And more concerning, the same issues have plagued his team every season, even in great years. That said, there’s no way he’s getting fired.

    So much to unpack in this quote.....Franklin postgame

    So instead he blames the weather for the abysmal running game? When Illinois ran for over 300 and when we haven’t been able to run it all season. I guess it doesn’t really matter if he has a different attitude inside the locker room, but I worry that part of the reason we have such a soft team...

    So much to unpack in this quote.....Franklin postgame

    Don’t necessarily disagree about the RB rotation, but Lee got hurt early in the game and I don’t believe came back. Lovett completely whiffed on a block that led to a sack and I don’t think he came back after that. Ford was hurt vs. Iowa so maybe he wasn’t available. Think the coaches were...

    So much to unpack in this quote.....Franklin postgame

    Takes some serious chutzpah to cite Clifford being limited when you made the decision to run him out there. And a wet day? Was Illinois playing on a dry field?

    Dabo lost to Pitt

    You wouldn’t hypothetically replace CJF with Dabo? That’s delusional.

    Franklin did a huge disservice to Clifford, the team, and the fans.

    Yes, the injury to Cliff was unfortunate. We are hardly the only team that deals with injuries. Very few of them manage to lose at home as 24 point favorites.

    One of the worst losses in school history

    What? 2013 UCF was an excellent team and we played a close and exciting game with a mediocre sanction-era team. Not remotely comparable to today

    Franklin did a huge disservice to Clifford, the team, and the fans.

    I think many teams could overcome injuries to a starting DT and QB against a 2-5 team that gained 94 total yards the week before. The injuries have been unfortunate, but they’re not an acceptable excuse for today

    Franklin did a huge disservice to Clifford, the team, and the fans.

    Idk if we would have won, but it is infuriating they didn’t try. CJF pulled the same crap with Trace in 2018.

    Franklin did a huge disservice to Clifford, the team, and the fans.

    A 28 point loss to OSU would be a decent outcome tbh. Illinois ran for 350+ on us with one of the worst QBs at a P5 program. They had just 94 total yards last week. OSU has a better run game and the ability to pass

    Franklin did a huge disservice to Clifford, the team, and the fans.

    Totally agree. We tried to force the run on the first few series and no designed Clifford runs and no Clifford scrambles the entire game. The staff clearly was hoping to walk away with a win without having to use Clifford much at all. So why not just start Roberson? If it’s a disaster you can...

    Ferentz just doubled down on the booing of injuries

    Perhaps. But I'm trying to be as objective as I can. It is true that occasionally teams have guys go down on D to buy some time. And I can see how the Brisker and AK injuries sort of looked like that at the time (we, of course, know that Brisker has been dealing with an issue all season and...

    Ferentz just doubled down on the booing of injuries

    That seems to settle it right there. How can you argue you were justified in booing injuries because we were using it to slow down momentum when the boos came out on the 5th play of the game after Iowa had just lost a yard? At that point there was no pattern of injuries and it did not occur...

    Ferentz just doubled down on the booing of injuries

    There is something incredible about the fans of a team that only won because of Penn State injuries b*tching endlessly about said injuries

    Iowa coach flopping to ground and mocking our injuries

    Nah, the Miami team that went into Pitt undefeated in late November a few years ago and lost was worse. But this Iowa team certainly did not look impressive. I think they could easily lose to Nebraska and certainly will have a very hard time scoring on Wisconsin. Assuming they do make it into...

    I hope we get to play you guys again

    I have something to say about it. Your defense looked like dogsh*t and is going to get boat raced against OSU

    Ferentz has now twice used our ineptness against us…

    God, Iowa fans are so lame. Injuries are part of football, so it is what it is. But to pretend as though you had more than a remote chance to win before Clifford went down? Ridiculous. Your defense was crap. And yes, please enlighten us about booing injured players
