PSU - Kentucky Citrus Bowl Official Game Thread

[psualt]

Who is running this game, Franklin or McSorley? He should not have been put back on the field. His mistake just opened the flood gates.

You are correct. It’s their job to put the team in position to win. There is no doubt that Franklin has trouble making the tough decisions.

FAMILY.

 

[PSUcup1]

Right at Farmer and Johnson

 

[Omar81]

good grief. two receivers in the same area, and the DB releases off the up receiver (Nick Bowers) and makes the INT. I have no clue why 2 receivers were in the same area. Juwan Johnson was free and would have had a TD. You have to believe that Bowers was supposed to stop and curl, or something. There's no reason to run a defender into the same area where you have an uncovered WR

It was a broken play once Trace left the pocket. It wasn’t designed that way. And ALL of the blame goes to McSorley, who completely underthrew the pass. He had a HORRIBLE year, and “capped” it off with this performance.

 

[lionroar88]

Game over

 

[DelcoNLion]

He is better than Clifford. Give it a ****ing rest.

Agreed - guy has given PSU a lot. Let him go out swinging.

 

[Storm at Sea]

He is better than Clifford. Give it a ****ing rest.

Hahahahaha. McSorley peaked last year. He's been terrible all season.

 

[nits74]

OK, I'll say it. The bloom is off the rose. This team quit and is poorly coached. Pathetic.

P.S. And enough of comparing The Big Ten to the SEC. That is a joke.

 

[fkkkjm]

This is a joke. Eff this team

 

[sluggo72]

Try again?

28-27. Got them were we want them

 

[EPC FAN]

The bad part is Franklin is going to leverage the PSU administration for more cash$$$$$$, and he will get it.

I would call his bluff. If he wants to leave, so be it. Look at the roster. Lots of coaches (Big Game Bob Stoops) for example, would like to coach ‘em up.

 

[PennStateNate]

Dear Lord. I’d rather Penn State not have you as a fan than having someone who thinks like this cheering for us.

Why?? I love what Trace has done here, but I’m glad it’s over. He got us to where we are at that’s it.

 

[fastlax16]

These Kentucky players have never wanted to win a game more than this one. Sentiment doesn’t go both ways and it shows.

 

[Nittanyfarmer]

Oh well, six weeks till Baseball Spring Training, then I can vent my frustrations on the Pittsburgh Pirates for the next six months...

Rahne deserves to take some of the blame for this. McSorley and the entire offense regressed under his tutelage. Hugh mistake by Franklin not to hire an experienced coordinator like he did with Moorhead.

 

[m.knox]

Can we start the FIRE FRANKLIN threads now?

 

[Storm at Sea]

Richt.

 

[Sooner Lion]

Runs right at Farmer!

 

[fastlax16]

Season has been shit since Franklin’s “elite” speech.

 

[SaquonCappelletti]

FACTS. Kentucky wants it way more and everyone watching could tell. Good for them. Back to the drawing board for us.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

Running TD by Kentucky, and with the PAT it's 27-7, Kentucky. Farmer appeared to take the wrong gap, and Jan Johnson got blocked to the ground.

1:35 left in the 3rd quarter.

frustrating, to say the least

 

[m.knox]

Oh well, six weeks till Baseball Spring Training, then I can vent my frustrations on the Pittsburgh Pirates for the next six months...

You need to follow PSU Wrestling..... That will get your pride back up.

 

[paws1957]

We have hit rock bottom.

Not yet we can always start digging

 

[PennState_one]

Kudos to KY, better team, more heart, more pride. Never thought I’d say that about a Penn St team. Cowardly effort. They all better look themselves in the mirror. Lost to a team wirh less talent (just like the MSU game)

The bad thing is... with the "playoffs", it probably is hard to get motivated. It's tough to have playoff aspirations, fail to make it, then go to a "normal" bowl game...

Kentucky did NOT have playoff aspirations and combined with the poor football program history, this is a HUGE deal to them... unfortunately not so much PSU and it shows

 

[fastlax16]

Hahahahaha. McSorley peaked last year. He's been terrible all season.

I don’t disagree.

 

[hotmetal]

We have to stay strong here.

 

[PennStateNate]

I would call his bluff. If he wants to leave, so be it. Look at the roster. Lots of coaches (Big Game Bob Stoops) for example, would like to coach ‘em up.

This team lost a HOF type RB. There all world TE, there go to WR and haven’t found anyone to replace them. The results and struggles in offense this year were expected.

 

[Nittany_93]

Ok, Senior Day Part Deux is over.
Time to build for 2019 and play our youth.

 

[KnightWhoSaysNit]

Embarrassing, but not a surprise. I was afraid that this staff recruited instead of preparing the team, and this confirms it.

 

[troutrus]

Guess they were right. SEC way too much speed for us.

 

[Little J]

Is this the Lair? Am I on the wrong board?

 

[Alphalion75]

It is definitely meaningless to the team and staff.

Well....its gone the way it should. The team who wanted it more, will win.

 

[Lion1974]

Try again?

Maybe we win 28-27.

 

[fairgambit]

Geeze. This game kills our Lambert Trophy chances.

 

[Safety Blitz]

Why should anyone expect next season or the one after that to be any different than the debacle we’re watching today?

I’m out

Thanks for stopping by.
Hopefully you are a pool boy of your word and never post here again.

 

[lionroar88]

Nice to see ABC thinks there is only one player in this game

 

[CoastGuard2018]

Maybe we win 28-27.

Should have went after someone like Yurcich last year.

 

[PearlSUJam]

Richt.

Parking.

Kentucky, Kentucky, Kentucky...... no? The guy says the right things, but delivering is another thing entirely.

 

[fastlax16]

Geeze. This game kills our Lambert Trophy chances.

Who else in the east is gonna get it?
