It is very difficult to watch PSU. That is sad to say. There used to be an optimism when I watched a game - even when outmatched on paper, JoePa would surprise you in the quality of performance of the team. For sure, physical toughness was a trademark of PSU teams. Coaches often stated that their teams were beat up physically for a week after playing PSU (Lou Holtz). The OL and DL were always tough to play against. Our OL is horrible. No running game. It seems that we have become some type of West Coast team, not a BigTen team. You cannot play and win in the BigTen unless. you are physical and have top notch OL and DL and the coaches to make them successful. This is Franklin's failing. We need an O'Brien period. He made a lot out of a down and out team. I see no change in the future with Franklin. Sorry. I hope I am proven wrong - please!
