[QUOTE="4WVU, post: 132790835, member: 1488608"] Like many on here, I thought we had the players to compete with Penn State this year and thought we might even be able to pull out a win. However, one thing that several posters have commented on about Neal Brown's coaching factoring into the loss is something I didn't see. Sure, I would have gone for the sure 3 points early on that would have given us a small, but early lead, but overall Coach Brown did not lose this football game. What I did see was a tremendous talent discrepancy between our team and theirs. To be sure, we do have some outstanding players, but not enough of them. I saw a Penn State team that was bigger, stronger, faster, more athletic, and deeper than we were. I thought we played hard and the effort was there, but simply were up against a team with bigger, faster, and more athletic players at practically every position. Like last year, this was a tough team to open the season against and will be by far the best team we will face this year...we need to put this game behind us and begin a new season starting next week! One loss does not ruin a season! [/QUOTE]
