Football Penn State defeats Utah 35-21 in the Rose Bowl

[bdgan]

You mean #2?

No. King is #4 and was apparently in the bathroom on Utah's scoring drive.

What's to assess? After every loss to UM Franklin acknowledges that his team got man handled. And then he just signs more 220 lb DE's. Even Utah, a roster of mid to low 3 star players, seems to put more muscle on the field.

I love Franklin, but he has to do it, not just talk about it.

A great man (i.e. actor) once said, "when you have to shoot, shoot, don't talk..."

Good the bad and the ugly

Kaden Saunders was on the field during the last sack of Sean Clifford. Should be a nice contributor for the Nittany Lions in 2023.

He or Evans should have gotten the end around pitch that Tinsley took for a short gain. They are both a bigger threat running on the edge.

I would bet you a million dollars that if I went over to the UU message board they would say that PSU is holding every play and why aren't the refs calling it?

not our fault those losers are wrong

A PSU OL was called for holding genius. [Insert eyeroll]

Perhaps it was #2 then?

 

[BudatPSU]

Goodness, they let the band play without interruption, I did not know that was allowed. Also, I have not heard a loud mouth PA announcer think he is the be all end all. Is that allowed?

i think you missed the joke of #4 going "#2" when he left the field.

Doing a#2

 

[NittanyChris]

Chop hasn't been held so much since he was a baby. But at this point they're clearly not going to call it so I guess we better deal with it.

On that last drive Chop got held nearly every play. And it was by that punk RT who was doing all the chirping.

(#2 is sometimes associated with one’s bowels…)

 

[PennSt8er]

Utah is not kicking into the EZ letting 10 run it back. he only had one good run and most of the time we start in poor starting field position.

 

[NCLION]

I wonder how much live tackling we did in practice
we are missing 2 tackles on every run

Utah is just running Michagans game plan and we have awful gap integrity
also #41 needs to be in with #11

Time for a Franklin team to take a punch in the mouth and punch back

The movie or your assessment of this game?

 

[PSUQBKeeper]

like the Rose Bowel?

 

[Psugo823]

Need to stay in our gaps. That was Michigan part 2 in the first half.

I swear some of these guys must practice tackling with their arms strapped to their sides. I just don't grasp how one makes it to a high level D1 football team and has no idea how to tackle.

Keep Wilson off the field. He's been terrible for years.

 

[Cowbell Man]

As was predicted by many, weeks ago.

 

[palmettolion]

I'd respect Desmond Howard a little bit if he just came out and said he really just wants to see PSU lose.

 

[mcpat]

I despise Iowa football but man, can they tackle. When I watch them wrap and hold on to at least a leg every time… and then I watch this ole tackling…

 

[BudatPSU]

I'd respect Desmond Howard a little bit if he just came out and said he really just wants to see PSU lose.

That is a nearly impossible task for mush mouth.

 

[PAgeologist]

I get they give the PAC more tickets, but how do they fill up both sides of the 50? PSU fans not buy them?

 

[PSUcup1]

43 is so bad. There has to be a better option.

 

[okinburg1]

Elsdon misses ANOTHER tackle

 

[NCLION]

Feel a long second half coming
zero physicality
poor tackling

 

[PAgeologist]

Man, that's an easy pick if Cater turns around

 

[palmettolion]

Nobody seems to be getting a clean shot on Utah's qb. Slippery dude.

 

[PSUQBKeeper]

at some point they have to throw a freaking flag

 

[GregInPitt]

3rd and 2 or 3 and PSU has the DE backing into pass coverage. No wonder Utah is making first downs on the ground.....

I'll be the first to say it. PSU is getting out coached, out schemed, in this game as far as PSU D vs Utah O. And then PSU D promptly creates a 3rd and 9..... and converts to a TE with no PSU defender even in the camera angle.

 

[KnightWhoSaysNit]

What we just saw Utah do on 3rd down is exactly what I want PSU's offense to do.

[Monkeibusiness]

This may be the best QB we faced all year.

 

[PSUQBKeeper]

people complain about Clifford but Rising just puts it up for grabs a lot

 

[Dylan Callaghan-Croley]

Gotta say, Cam Rising's vision and awareness is outstanding. Penn State is almost getting to him it feels 4 out of 5 drop backs and he just finds a man every time to throw to...

 

[NittanyChris]

Rising keeps throwing the ball up for grabs. A big pick is coming.

he totally missed the last two, like not even close, and those receivers weren't even looking

 

[PAgeologist]

I'm perfectly fine with Rising doing it. Could have picked a couple of those off.

 

[NCLION]

Singleton needs to break one here
can we run him outside for once

 

[psrurock]

Every play their qb is taking a step back before each and every snap. When are they going to call illegal motion on him?
