I think it was because Skoronski stood up. He likes to do that and reach out to contact the DL in the neutral zone to try to get the call, but it’s backfired a couple times. They probably screwed up the call though.
Is it sad that I thought that was one of the most creative plays Bajakian has called today, and it was mainly designed to draw a penalty first down
The DE was WAY offsides with Pete stood up. The offense has to either move or snap it while the D is offsides or it doesn’t matter. My assumption is they decided the D wasn’t offsides, but they just blew it.

Finally almost into the 4th quarter we throw the screen to Hull which generates as much yardage as the previous few drives combined.

Literally what was 11 doing as he approached Gill. That ball was so underthrown it fooled the safety to spring Gill for the TD

This is the nightmare scenario the coach of the ranked team paints for his players, to warn them against turnovers.

Great entertainment.

Maybe we'll force another turnover.
So basically as soon as the rain stops, back to back HR plays. Maybe the run was more a double. But the props for the D is misplaced when you’re playing in a monsoon, the opposing offense is completely one dimensional, and the ball is a slick cinder block.

The only reason the defense is hanging in there is Penn State dropping the ball and having passes slip out of their hands in the rain. That’s it.

You guys all complaining about Aaron Judge and yet we have no idea if that is a damn TD. Are they reviewing?

Did he touch the ground? Looks like he rolled over on the body of his lineman.

Didn’t get a great angle, but at what point was hilinski down before being in the end zone?

I’m looking for a bad snap leading to a safety. That would be a momentum swing worthy of this game.
