Singleton has become a primary target on passing plays. A testament to the lack of weapons at WR.
delayed zone blitz, and tOSU gets him.
Then another sack on 3rd down, so that drive started well, but ended rather ugly, and prematurely
the 2nd sack:

Kind of fitting PSU playing OSU every year near Halloween.
We all wait around for the great pumpkin only to be greatly disappointed.
Fool me one, shame on you. Fool me eight times in a row….

Just put Beau in. If we either can’t throw downfield, or Allar won’t, then there is no point in him running the offense. Might as well at least add Beau’s running threat if we can’t throw 10 yards downfield anyway.
Singleton’s caught 6 passes.
Warren has 3
All WRs combined have 3. (They had 2 at the half).
-Wallace 2 catches for 45 yds
- Fleming 1 catch for 4 yds
Honestly, let Beau take the next series. Allar has led us to 6 points in 3 full quarters. What is there to lose?
It's not him. It's Andy....he keeps calling slow developing plays. Wheel routes and short passes are the only thing working.
With nobody getting open at least Beau can scramble
Not his fault, play calling. We tried to open it up and OSU changed coverages. Better than a turnover…AK will adjust next possession if we can hold them.
For you armchair coaches out there, did you watch the skycam replay from behind Allar on the 3rd down play? Now tell me where you want him to throw it? Receivers getting ZERO separation. It's easy to get open against the zones of Kent State but you gotta work hard against 5 stars.
OSu is shadowing Warren. They'll adjust to shadow Warren and Pribula because they can.
Our special teams have really sucked the last couple years. How do they screw up the Barker Sahaydak decision?There are HS players who can punt the ball further than Riley Thompson.
I agree.
FWIW, it appears the play was designed to be a pass to Singleton, but he was covered tightly, and Allar didn't have time to find another receiver.
Regardless: 6 points in 3 full quarters. Let someone else try.
^^^This is and has been the problem for years.^^^
It’s a team sport. You can’t have the drop back passer and no real WRs.
Nearly every time PSU sends an extra rusher, tOSU makes them pay for it.
fumble, or incomplete???
boo, it's ruled incomplete. It was really close. Ham on the radio PBP felt it was a fumble.

I’m not blaming Allar. I’m saying if nobody can get open, then a pocket passer does no good. Use the option running QB.
So glad they bring in an expert rules analyst to tell us he doesn’t know. Twice now.
