Much more aggression up front on both sides of the ball. Even Cignetti acknowledged they were getting beat on both lines. Gotta give Smith credit given the hand he was dealt.

At this point, it's all about mentality. Got get these kids up, and ready. They now know they can go toe to toe with #2.

All of those years of changing brand from power football to finesse - coupled with ridiculously easy schedules masked to decay and rot of program.

This year there was no where to hide and the eventually collapse.
Dumbest post of the year nominee…may not be a winner because I’m sure you will top it before December 31st…your FDS won’t allow you to stop and think before you post. Are you working on your hate for the next guy right now or still trying to get Franklin out of your system?

Sparty by 10: 24-14. 3-9.

Yeah, there's certainly not very good history with Penn State going to East Lansing after a close hard fought loss. I'm just about braced for another ball puncher game where somehow they manage to eek out a one score loss.

Are you suggesting that Penn State has been a power football team under Franklin? Or have beaten lots of teams with better or equal talent? Or both? You seem to suggest both. And that would easily be the stupidest post of year.

And the entire world knows the same thing and laughs at Franklin’s ineptitude.

Now that we've seen the Gunsie Lock, I'm definitely feeling better about this one.
He nailed it as usual
It’s unfortunate that Tom deleted his new thread when we were down 7-0 boasting about being right with his 3-9 prediction. But Nostra-dumbass will just create another new handle when he embarrasses himself like he always does.
Well damn I missed that one but im not surprised 😂 poor fella can't get out of his own way.

I think you’ll see soon enough how successful Franklin was and it’s not as easy as you seem to think it is, but you will never admit it.

First Franklin’s damage must be undone.

But bet we can still beat Villanova, Potato State, SMU, Purdue, and all those other mighty adversaries.

1 decent win in 11+ years. And our first decent road win since BoB? Yes, we’ll be just fine!

Yes, we have to undue the damage of that 13 win season and a final four appearance. Oh the horror.
