Althons predicts Duke Mayo Bowl

[lazydave841]

Now you are just backtracking. You lied. Deal with it.

He didn't lie. He mocked you. You post highly absurd stuff. I wouldn't be shocked if you did write it, and essentially you have written things very similar.

You don't come into '14 with 7 scholarship OL and then claim the previous guy navigated sanctions. Bob didn't have a losing season. That's about as navigating as he did.

I'm still waiting on the PFF breakdown or film where our OL was great man blockers forces to do a scheme they weren't recruited for. You say that quite often but never bring us any pbp breakdown or anything to support it.

Althons for decades..
60s 70s 80s and 90's under estimated all eastern football teams and had the most embarrassing bowl game predictions throughout that 40 year period...

I wrote them off strictly based on their poor performance.

I say it because it is 100% verifiable is you actually know anything about football and watch the film. Go ahead. I am right, deal with it. And yes he did lie, he implied I said something I didn't say. Never mind the fact Joe (and OB) were better recruiters than Franklin.

Verify everything you said.

NFL picks don't support you. Recruiting sites don't. You have no film to present. At least, none I have ever seen shared.

As far as I'm concerned, you are 99.87% wrong on everything you have ever typed on this site. 🙃

Except for the undeniable fact that I am batting about .850 during the Franklin era and all the film supports my statement. Go watch the film game by game and prove I am wrong. Watch 20 plays per game. The ones that actually work as designed almost always feature man blocking. It is clear as day if you know anything about football .

Cheap crap.

That’s the shortest post I’ve ever seen from you by like 1,000 words.

 

[ouirpsu]

You guys are hilarious, absolutely hilarious. How about if we play the season and see what happens. If Athlon told you Santa Claus was real would you believe that too?

Wait…are you saying Santa isn’t real?

Bring proof. Show your work.

.850 in your head.

Still waiting. Bring me some film. I'll watch it.

Lmao it’s July and you are getting worked up over a prediction for December

He’s been doing that act for decades.

 

[lazydave841]

He’s been doing that act for decades.

He really ought to be a Buckeyes fan. They are the only Big 10 school who meets his criteria.

 

[summitlion1]

BS. The only game his injury impacted was Illinois. He was close to 100% against Michigan and Michigan State. People can stick their heads in the sand all they want, last year's team has several fatal flaws. We are lucky Wisconsin and Auburn did more to lose those games than we did to win because we are far closer to a 5 and 7 also ran than a 11 and 1 team.

His injury didn't impact the Iowa game? Now that is just silly. Am I a liar as well?

 

[NJPSU]

That guy has been crying about Penn State football on these boards for over 20 years. Same act, never changes.

 

[lazydave841]

He's going to tell you no. He's going to tell you that Iowa turned the momentum over when they were down 17-3 and being outgained 200 to 60 (I don't have the numbers on me but I've pulled them before).

All because Iowa scored on the next drive after Clifford got hurt, they had all the momentum. All because one blitz worked.

I remember reading it somewhere between '02 and '06 the first time. I don't think he's ever shared a thought on anything that's ever happened beyond those 3 criteria.

 

[Texas Lion]

You are lying when you say Franklin wasn't impacted by sanctions so maybe call it even?

I am sorry you thought I lied. For someone so smart you must not have seen the sarcasm.
And what is your research on why Joe and ob were better recruiters.

 

[lazydave841]

He has none, other than his opinion.

Recruiting sites would definitely rank JF and JoePa over Bob, but he's not into them.

He won't cite NFL draft picks either. He's once tried to credit BOB for Saquon, which is far from true. I've not looked but JF probably leads that metric if you rate tenure vs BOBs vs Joe's last 8 seasons.

Internet couch coach Wally....the closest he ever got to a football was when he captained the shadow boxing team at the all girls high school he attended.

"if you know anything about football...." Don't insult people that actually played and or coached the game. You are a 100% charlatan.

 

[marshall23]

I am not the one with the problem, people like you are. You don't like what I have to say, can't argue, debate or counter so you insult or change the subject. Pretty typical actually.

It's not what you say I don't like Wally.....it's you.

Now I feel better cause this whole time I thought I offended someone that people actually cared about.

[Wandering Spectator]

In 2016, Athlon had Penn State going to the Foster Farms Bowl against UCLA. They meant to say UCLA’s Stadium. 🤷‍♂️

 

[Crusher1950]

How low can Psu football go? Use to be top 5 in the country now we are playing for peanuts, thanks James you are doing a great job

vs Florida State

While it would be great for us to be in the CFP, most years I would love the Duke's Mayo Bowl since I live down here in NC. However, this year we will be in Hawaii at that time.

I selfishly think the same way about the Cotton Bowl and any Bowls in the Dallas Area. Heck I was praying for TCU to get an invite to the B1G as well.

 

[Delcolion915]

It's not what you say I don't like Wally.....it's you.

That's cool because nobody likes you either you petulant 72 year old child.

 

[KCLion]

So let me get this straight.....

When Penn State wins games it is because the other team lost the game and we got lucky and when Penn State loses a game it is because they have fatal flaws? Gotcha ya.

Go watch the Auburn game man.....Clifford was as good as it gets and led the team to a win against an SEC Team.

And....he was nowhere near 100% the rest of the year after the Iowa Injury. It changed the game plan and it changed his ability to run the football effectively.

As the HC at a “premier program”, isn’t his responsibility to have a backup QB ready to at least take a snap?

 

[Texas Lion]

Ouu ya. C any

A head coach responsible for having his team prepared? Nah, not his fault. COVID, phase of the moon, tide levels, you know, stuff like that is what caused such a dismal display of failure. James Franklin is totally without fault. Look for a repeat this season probably due to wind shear and Brownian motion, or recent weather patterns in Hawaii.

Nothing negative happens due to Franklin, he's without sin.

You are just not a real fan to be asking a silly question like that.

That doesn’t change the fact that his backup QB wasn’t ready. Obviously CJF wasn’t a Boy Scout because CJF himself wasn’t ready for Clifford to go down and it’s his job to be ready.

 

[LandoComando]

If that's the case, there may not be enough players to field a team for a game like that after all of the opt-outs and transfer portal entries.

Good maybe that's what needs to happen to end these bowl games and to get rid of Franklin

 

[BBHorn86]

There are going to be a lot of unhappy people if we finish 7-6 or worse.

I think the Purdue game is critical to having a good season. PSU simply can't afford to lose to teams like Purdue when they have so many stronger teams ahead of them

They can't, but they will. Have zero confidence they win at Purdue and will not be surprised if they look unprepared in the process. 7 wins is the ceiling for this team IF things go well.

 

[MacNit07]

10 more years....thank the Lord.....10 more years.

Yes indeed…thank the good Lord that Penn State does not hold their staff accountable…in fact, they are rewarded with raises…sounds like a recipe for success if I ever heard one…

I will bet you PSU football wins 7 games.

CJF will be okay with a 60 million dollar buy out. Then PSU can spend another 100 million acquiring your fanboy dream coach........LOL
