Football GAMEDAY THREAD: Penn State Football opens season vs. Purdue

[Dylan Callaghan-Croley]

Nice play action design there by Yurcich to get the first down.

 

[PSUQBKeeper]

nice play call

 

[LandoComando]

Like the result on 4th down--would have kicked it though

 

[Coultr77]

Cliff looks really good so far

 

[Obliviax]

Nice drive. Good decisions by SC

 

[MikeP]

get these jitters out and win going away, jeez its only the first quarter

Agree

 

[BudatPSU]

Alright!

 

[McCloudersportLion]

Good pocket climb Cliff Dawg

 

[PSUQBKeeper]

lol what an underwhelming call by Gus

 

[Dylan Callaghan-Croley]

TOUCHDOWN PENN STATE!

Clifford finds WKU transfer, Mitchell Tinsley, for a 12-yard touchdown.

 

[Obliviax]

Why did they wait five seconds to call touchdown?

 

[ram2020]

Clifford looks calm and composed, so do the backs. The receivers need to pick it up

 

[PSUQBKeeper]

Why did they wait five seconds to call touchdown?

everyone loves suspense?

 

[Parkerdam555]

Tinsley finishes. Nice drive up 7-3.

Cliff looks really good so far

Agree x 💯. I think every one of his throws has been on the money.

 

[BudatPSU]

Why did they wait five seconds to call touchdown?

Nobody expected it.

 

[Dylan Callaghan-Croley]

If Sean Clifford didn't have three drops so far, he would be 8-for-9 for probably close to 100-yards. He's looked really good so far imo, the offensive line is doing better than they did last year. Olu Fashanu off to a great start.

Why did they wait five seconds to call touchdown?

Gus couldn't believe there was no flag.

But seriously, very nice drive. Now D, step up and keep the pressure on.

I know we aren’t steamrolling them but the fact that our RBs aren’t getting met 2 yards deep in the backfield is something we haven’t had in many years! Very encouraged by the OLine and RBs. Annoyed at the WRs dropping balls and at Porter for his ‘almost’ making plays.

 

[PSUQBKeeper]

seriously sounded like Johnson was looking for a flag to call out, I almost got worried that there was one

 

[PSU Soupy]

Like the result on 4th down--would have kicked it though

No way I was hoping that we would go for it, good decision by James, great play call.

 

[AWS1022]

Maybe we can stop Charlie Jones this series….just a thought.

 

[NittanyChris]

Keyvone Lee comes out of this game at #3 on the depth chart.

 

[Obliviax]

The team with stood the first quarter emotion. Now is the time to pour it on

 

[LandoComando]

No way I was hoping that we would go for it, good decision by James, great play call.

Worked out--down 3 I kick that but it worked so not complaining. If we go there and don't get it...

 

[terrapin01]

I’m certainly not disappointed by this game thread….lol
same every game

 

[LandoComando]

He's gone

 

[NCLION]

No ****ing way

 

[Dylan Callaghan-Croley]

Abdul Carter is being looked at for potential targeting. looks like shoulder to shoulder to me. The worst rule in college football here.

 

[Jerry]

That's not targeting.

 

[LandoComando]

That is the worst rule in football though

 

[PSUQBKeeper]

they're going to toss him, this rule freaking blows

 

[psualt]

BS call.

 

[LandoComando]

I mean, by definition that's 100% targeting--just a horrible rule

 

[ram2020]

Total bs, going for the ball

 

[Dylan Callaghan-Croley]

That's a horrible call.

 

[LandoComando]

BS call.

The call was right--the rule is dumb

 

[PSUQBKeeper]

called it, eff you rulemakers and refs, what bs

 

[Jerry]

Took one quarter for the Big Suck zebras to make their presence known.

 

[NittanyChris]

Horrendous. Simply unreal.
