Official Penn State vs. rutgres game thread.

[Philly Lion]

Apparently, Shareef Miller is now hurt too.

 

[bxle]

This is what you can expect when you play your BIG RIVAL.

Emotions running high.

 

[psu2016]

Teams know how PSU operates, time for JoMo to change something, anthing

He's too stubborn. Never makes adjustments

 

[Woodpecker]

What time does the game start?

Hey, players shouldn’t be posting here during a game!

 

[nits74]

Disagree.

2 losses on the road by 4 points to top 14 opponents

They are just playing awful right now

Say what? Just playing awful is a sign of being over rated. Good teams get better as the season progresses. This team has fallen off a cliff.

 

[ShoreLion85]

This team didn’t show up to play

1. Special team mistake gifts RU 3 points;
2. J. Johnson drops a 1st down pass;
3. Blocking on the O-line is beyond bad; can the loss of Bates reverberate down the line this much?
4. No pressure on the RU QB, and no contain either;
5. No penetration in the backfield on RU runs, and terrible tackling after that

But aside from that, we're doing OK...

 

[NCLION]

Big plays have camouflaged LB play and poor OLine
Too much tape out now and teams adjust
We havent

 

[trz103]

It’s coming full circle again that JF is not a game day coach. These guys are uninspired and technically unprepared.

 

[b&w1987]

Pretty lucky to be down only 6. We need a big play to get our MOJO back.

 

[justnitts]

Michigan sucks if we're being honest...that game was very misleading

 

[kijanacat]

Piss poor play.

 

[psu00]

Where the hell is the team that played Michigan?

They appear to have given up after the Ohio St loss and it appears the coaching staff is unable to get the team focused. Horrible blocking and tackling.

 

[Westcoast24]

Typical b1g screw-job of PSU at the Beav -- Rutgers OL are literally tackling PSU defenders on every single play, no flags. And I mean OUTRIGHT tackles and takedowns of PSU tacklers at the point of attack - 5 point move type takedowns in wrestling - no flag. This bush-league and its officials are such a joke.

Lol

 

[supermatt24]

You can tell the team has given up on the season after last week's loss and that is on the leadership (coaches and captains).

 

[justnitts]

We want Bama?

 

[AWS1022]

Michigan sucks if we're being honest...that game was very misleading

And Rutgers is a powerhouse?

No it isn't. It means they are playing bad right now.

It happens to everyone

 

[harjeff]

Could it be this team was overrated all year?
Soft and slow

Not enough depth yet....and some key injuries are really showing up! Allen out now, Losing Bucholz and Bates has been HUGE!!

 

[Phil's Rug]

KO goes out of bounds, may have been our best play so far today

 

[Phil's Rug]

1st down Gesicki

 

[PaoliLion]

What’s bad is how much these two teams have changed since we last met.

 

[PSUcup1]

Pistol again.... but still gets the ball standing still

Infuriating

 

[Phil's Rug]

1st down Hamilton, down to the 20

 

[fastlax16]

Michigan sucks if we're being honest...that game was very misleading

They're better than Rutgers. Significantly.

 

[Phil's Rug]

 

[PSUcup1]

Atta guy Trace.
Made he correct read

 

[BobPSU92]

Enough horseshit.

 

[Rip_E_2_Joe_PA]

If the need comfort and self pity...let them have a seat on the pine. Other guys have been practicing...time they get their opportunity....

 

[bxle]

Rutgers is back.

 

[PSUcup1]

Come on defense.

Shut down Series here

 

[mtnlion]

Ok offense seems to settle in. Defense has to tackle

 

[Omar81]

Karma for the Rutgers players laughing at our fans. No class — but glaringly stupid.

 

[Nittanyfarmer]

Time for TM to take this team on his arm and burn RU deep constantly. No respect for the deep routes.

 

[m.knox]

Finally. Let's hope we spotted them a quarter and will get into this game.

The D needs to step up.

 

[PSU.:.]

There we go O

 

[919_Lion]

O did it’s job.
Now D needz to step up.

 

[78SweetRevenge]

I just feel bad for Saquon....so much talent being wasted. Put him in a pro-style offense and he wins the Heisman without any competition.

 

[harjeff]

Nice drive their to get the lead......now the D does their job and we take control of the game

 

[m.knox]

Karma for the Rutgers players laughing at our fans. No class — but glaringly stupid.

It was just a bit too early for that.......

 

[djr4rebs]

McSorley woke up on that drive. Great throws, and he has to make teams pay on the read. Somebody has to put the team on their shoulders.
