Official PSU - MSU Game Thread

[PennStateNate]

They may say a fumble, but it sure looked like his arm was going forward.

His arm was going forward but looked like after he lost the ball.

 

[PennStateNate]

Trying to do too much....u see their DE spy him too prior to the rush attempt?

To his defense as soon as he hikes the ball 2-3 guys are in his face.

 

[scrivener]

Menet was turned into cheese...awful

 

[harjeff]

Very risky pulling the ball up in traffic and the MSU players helmet hit The ball! UGH!!

 

[step.eng69]

Does anyone know the logo on the back of Barkley's jacket?

Either the Sharks or Jets

 

[KnightWhoSaysNit]

Please help me understand. We defer. MSU takes the ball. We decide the endzone we defend. We choose the south end zone, so we run south to north. But the wind is out of the WNW according to the national weather service. Looked that way on TV as well -- out of the north. Did we screw up or is there another factor involved, such as making them score near the students in the 4th?

I agree I see it...trying not to $&!! on our Oline...they don’t seem to punish people though ...I am a defensive guy can’t comment too much on our offense

 

[ftlpsu]

Ok can we adjust on the offensive side? Seems like the plan is to overwhelm our oline.

 

[BobPSU92]

We can't get out of our own way.

 

[PennStateNate]

7-6 Pitt over Nd at the half.

ND and Washington should automatically drop.

Not sure, but the choice of side in the 2nd half will go to MSU as I assume PSU will take the ball.

 

[ralphster]

And OSU should drop, too.

We need to win this first....lol

 

[SUPERTODD]

They should give Menet a red cape to complete the Halloween costume. Olé!

 

[Safety Blitz]

By deferring to the second half, PSU will have the following choices: receive, kickoff or direction of play for third quarter.
Assuming the choice is to receive, MSU gets its choice of direction to start the third quarter.

 

[BobPSU92]

McSorley has the record!

In just about every game I've seen the team that doesn't get the ball to start a half takes the wind, if it is significant. According to the cameras and commentary, it is significant today.

 

[ftlpsu]

Damn

 

[BobPSU92]

Miles!

FIRE. BARKLEY.

 

[paws1957]

So much for the run defense!

 

[Nittanyfarmer]

perfect audible call!

 

[Tom McAndrew]

almost ... nice run by Sanders against the vaunted MSU run defense

 

[ralphster]

There goes the vaunted MSU rush defense average!

 

[ftlpsu]

Nice

 

[BobPSU92]

Hamler!

 

[Tom McAndrew]

TD, Hamler!!!!!!!!

 

[Nittanyfarmer]

Hamler the Man!

 

[ralphster]

Beat me by a millisecond, Tom

 

[BobPSU92]

Please Hamler, don't hurt 'em.

 

[francofan]

Nice 94 yard drive!

 

[ftlpsu]

Nice 94 yard drive!

You say 94’?

 

[AWS1022]

Please Hamler, don't hurt 'em.

Stop, it’s Hamler time.

 

[harjeff]

Miles...Great run...but ran out of gas!! Good drive to get the lead!

 

[RickinDayton]

And OSU should drop, too.

Why do we consistently see block in the back penalties, not just from PSU, but across college football? It just seems like such an avoidable penalty.

 

[step.eng69]

McSorley has the record!

That's Gold

 

[Obliviax]

The goes spartys rushing yards allowed record (btw, 26 would have had the TD)

 

[PSU.:.]

Some nice execution on that drive. Perfect

 

[harjeff]

In just about every game I've seen the team that doesn't get the ball to start a half takes the wind, if it is significant. According to the cameras and commentary, it is significant today.

MSU could certainly do that

 

[psudsl08]

LSU up 3-0 on ga, wash up 10-3, Pitt 7-6

 

[AWS1022]

Miles...Great run...but ran out of gas!! Good drive to get the lead!

He needed to learn the little hop that Barkley does to avoid that dive tackle.
