Lived in Vegas for 23 years during the perpetual growth era... still know many people and can arrange a VIP extravaganza at a reasonable rate. Give me a few days and it's a lock - better than any travel agency can provide.
Official PSU - Ohio State game thread
- Thread starter Tom McAndrew
- Start date
D'Antonio and his MSU staff really did steal those games back to back from CJF. Hard to believe PSU lost BOTH those games.
Nobody else left on the schedule can move the ball like OSU does. That alone means we have a good chance to win out.
SC remaining healthy/improving health wise is VITAL. He's absolutely the key to the offense. Without a running game, he can't make a mistake though. That's a big ask vs the third most talented team in the country.
One thing I can say, none of the breaks went our way. Closest thing to a break we got was the misfire/wrong route on the one 4th down.
For all the kudos he gets, Day made some poor decisions tonight. His talent bailed him out.
LOL, the same fans who were chanting "not our rival" at the end then without delay storm the field... 🤣
Dude where did day come from? What about this guys meteoric rise?
You think he'll crack the lineup? The competition won't be any weaker there.
Goodnight Tater Salad!Dude where did day come from? What about this guys meteoric rise?
Dudes are everywhere
But do we have an administration that’s willing to go get a “dude”? I doubt it.Dude where did day come from? What about this guys meteoric rise?
Dudes are everywhere
I think Day is more Larry Coker than Urban Meyer. Those 4th down decisions in the red zone were really stupid. He created at least a 10-14 point swing in PSU's favor with those decisions
His first step with the right foot was out of bounds before the defender even touched him.
Same here, I was sort of into the game but part of me was kind of melancholy, thinking what if we had even half that kind of effort last week.
Meanwhile, UGA is headed to the CFP with a backup QB.
so young brilliant face of the franchise professional inexpensive guys don’t exist? I just dont believe that
100% …win the ones your supposed to it’s ok…somewhat to loose the ones that are expected and occasionally winning a game here and there….
But you likely have to go through a bunch to find one. The last six hot prospects are now 136-137 as P5 coaches. Not a really promising stat for face of the franchise guys.
He ran completely out of bounds and then came back in. It wasn't even close
And when the next guy is worse, then what? Just fire him too? And then the next, and the next? It’s worked well for Nebraska, Tennessee, FSU, Miami….let’s join the bandwagon.
Everyone who argues it is time seems convinced that #1) we will hire Matt Ruhle; #2) Matt Ruhle is the answer. Five years ago he was at Temple. He has coached one top 25 team ever
I thought UGA would be a force this season. My daughter graduated last spring and I attended several games in Athens. It's definitely a different experience compared to my many games (home and away) during and after my years at PSU.
Matt Ruhle
Career: NFL: 8–15 (.348)
NCAA: 47–43 (.522)
Bowls: 1–2 (.333)
His Baylor teams never defeated a ranked team. I'm not saying he wouldn't be a good choice either. Just saying that it's not on the basis of his coaching record to date.
I was just reading about the GA DL the other day. The one guy is a house and the rest of them are playing like wild dawgs.
Well I’d like to know what your breaking point is. I’m there now, what will trigger your need to get a new coach?
I'd say it's two straight seasons of .500 or less. But 2020 was pretty weird and basically an irrelevant season. So this is a grey area. Also, the buyout is so massive right now that PSU shouldn't pull the trigger on releasing him. It is much, much better for PSU in the long run if he leaves for another school
Def forgot the buyout. But that happens cause we can’t recruit if our coach is a lame duck unsigned 1 year left guy. Cant have both ways.
We have a great class coming in with two amazing quarterbacks. He will have a couple years to see how they pan out. They fail, he fails.
So your breaking point is 3 years from now based on these 2 youngsters. Fair enough.
I like Franklin I do. But unless he develops a better more consistent running game this is the result.
Running backs on the way in recruiting class. Still need push inside -- future at Guard and Center is uncertain but crucial.
I agree. Ohio State’s big plays were a byproduct of a consistent and successful running game. Stretch the other teams defense and you will eventually wear it down. JMHO
Weren’t we excited about our current rbs.
VERY TRUE, and a lesson taught to me by my high school sweetheart's father - Dr. Bob Hopkins. Playing at the University of Missouri, he had earning all Big Six Honors, was a member of the team named Big Six Champions and was the leading rusher in the 1946 Cotton Bowl Classic. He quit his senior year to better concentrate on his scholastics, giving up his athletic scholarship.
When I first began dating his youngest daughter he challenged me to name some star football players at Penn State... to which I immediately began to name off many defensive stars and a few on offense like Lenny Moore, Lydell Mitchell and John Cappelletti...
That's when he stopped me and said my perspective was all wrong. It was nice having big name players at the skilled position... BUT it didn't matter unless you had good offensive linemen that could advance the line of scrimmage. I was embarrassed that I failed to mention a fraternity brother of mine (several years before my matriculation) - Dave Joyner, an offensive tackle for the Lions from 1969 to 1971 and was both a consensus All-American and an Academic All-American in 1971.
BUT his point was well taken, success in college football begins with the offensive line.
RIP Dr. Bob Hopkins:

Win out? You must be on narcotics. We will be lucky to not lose out? You think we are defeating either Michigan team? Rutgers? They just beat the mighty Fighting Illini on the road? Maryland just put 38 on the board and won? I will be happy to get to bowl eligible? But will we accept? Or “opt out” - you know there is still COVID out there…
