    If we had played OSU on opening day - we win

    BIG should go back to 8 league games and get away from any league games in the first 3 games. let teams get themselves together in the OOC.

    PSU doesn't have a running back ranked in the top 200 for yardage.

    The 2019 team was powerful offensively. Sean Clifford's injuries hurt the team at key moments (i.e. the tOSU game). However, that team could run the ball when it needed to - watch the end of the Iowa game at Kinnick - we ran the clock out on them. Also, watch Noah Cain in that game, and...

    BWI Staff talking about remaining games and Sean Clifford

    I noticed one theme in the discussion on the Monday BWI report......and that is that Sean Clifford should get better as we move further into the season away from the Iowa injury. Obviously, time should heal all injuries, but does playing help heal? If what we saw on Saturday is the player we...

    "Next man up" or "Best Available player"???

    Nate Bauer said it pretty well when he called out the next man up statement replacing PJ, because there is no simple replacement for PJ. We have no other player close to him, so the kicks off a whole other set of changes that make the DL line significantly weaker. TFrank went through the list...

    Should Penn State try seven O linemen and two tight ends on some running plays?

    I believe that Illinois gained 94 yds total offense in their prior game where they got hammered by Wisconsin - the team that we beat in week one.

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

    IMHO, PSU did not deserve to be a 24 pt favorite, given the condition of this team. 24 pt favorite or more would be appropriate 3 weeks ago, but now we are among the worst teams int the BIG given the team health - i.e. I don't think the 7 man line ILL was running would not have been nearly...

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

    I think also that some very unusual events of 2020 and 2021 have really hurt this program. In 2020, if we had a normal season and didn't lose any players, we would have been dominant. In, fact we would have played OSU in a white out and the talent to get them. Again, I am looking at a 2020...

    How do we finish? @OSU, @MD, UM, Rutg, @MSU

    I think the "bend but don't break" can take a tole on a defense. it has created several games where the number of plays and the time our DEF has been on the field adds to the wear and tear on our players. small things like letting a team get a couple first downs and punt, almost always puts...

    OL and DL

    not sure the answer to this, but what is the star rating of our OL and DL vs Illinois?

    Transfer Portal and its impact

    every Sunday we do a brunch after church with the neighbors, one of whom is our local HS FB coach. we are a little farm school, so nothing big, but this guy probably could have gone to higher level in coaching. he was a GA at a BIG school in the 1980's, asst in small D3 schools before coming...

    Big ten network ugh

    the problem with the old format or the new format is that they do not involve the whole game of FB. the NFL approach is more what I would prefer. The old college format suddenly favors team with solid FG kicker. the new format favors the team that can handle short yardage at the goal line...

    If we lose out, do you want Franklin gone?

    of course not, as the current condition of the PSU team in terms of injuries might have won ONE game on the schedule to date = Nova, and that is a maybe. this team is not close to where it was start of the year. Now if we played tOSU the day they lost to Oregon - maybe a different story...

    If we lose out, do you want Franklin gone?

    Rutgers dominated UMichigan - they are a solid team that has had some bad luck.

    ESPN College Football Final - Joey Galloway quote

    in talking about the PSU-Ill game he said, "Sean Clifford was back healthy". In talking about the game they did not indicate that Clifford's health or PJ being out impacted the game. Were they watching a different game than we saw????? OSU will be at least a 40 pt favorite next week, if...

    What adjustments would you make?

    your suggestions for the defense feel like they would make an impact. What would you do with the DL right now to create the run stuffing DT? different players? do we have players on the roster anywhere who may not be getting used, but could help on the DL?

    What adjustments would you make?

    I believe as bad as we were in 2020, we were at the top of the BIG last year in yards per game and fist down differential. We were ahead in yardage early in many games we lost, at the turnovers were killing us including scores by opponent defenses. could we use Tyler Warren like we used...

    How do we finish? @OSU, @MD, UM, Rutg, @MSU

    If you were to assume that his health never improves by playing, what are your expectations? I am not sure we see any improvement in his health for the rest of the year.

    If we had played OSU on opening day - we win

    OSU is on upswing and has been improving each week, while we are now not the same team that won in Madison. I think had we played them opening day, we would likely have won.
