With Minny getting the ball at the 2nd half, that could be a nine point swing for not paying attention on the extra point. They still need to get their head in it on every play!!

This game has felt like such a massive struggle. For every yard gained and every point scored it has felt like one step forward and one and a half steps back. They will need something a little extra in the second half than what they showed even at USC. It just has that feeling of a real grind to get anything accomplished.

And yet we celebrate after each tackle or catch. Celebrate. SMH Do we have any vocal leaders on this team? Their body language speaks volumes. This game scared me all season.

We do seem to have a penchant for scoring less points than the opponent at halftime.

Hopefully they see the tempo quick pass game is the move rest of way. Loosen things up to hit runs

Minny much more competitive than I had figured. Should make for a fun to watch second half.

Keystone Kops.

What makes it more embarrassing is that the TD was totally unearned. Completely dependent upon a phantom pass interference call.
That call was a good sign for the 2nd Half. The B1G smells playoff $$$$$$$$$$$ and needs PSU to win provided we don't beat ourselves.

Without that call PSU is down 7 at half.

The first two possessions in H2 will be very important.

So, I know #0 didn’t block the kick, but isn’t it now a penalty if you hurdle the OL?
I believe you can hurdle them provided you do it clean in the you don’t step on them or use leverage. You can’t use your own teammate either.
