Official CFB Semifinal, PSU - Notre Dame, Orange Bowl, game thread

Throw the f****** ball

ND is selling out against the run which means Allar has to throw the ball. He did complete a pass to TW, but he needs to target another receiver.

 

[wbcbus]

Unless I’ve missed one, I don’t think a single offensive play where we rush to the line and go has resulted in more than 2-3 yards. And now it’s rushing the defense back out there, who is bound to get tired.

it isn’t working, stop trying it.

 

[Psu00]

They need to do something to make ND pay for sending the house.

After watching that last game, how can they not have been prepared for it tonight?

 

[ILLINOISLION]

If I was playing PSU I’d blitz every time.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

3rd & inches for ND, on their 37 ...

Leonard keeps it barely makes it, but it's a 1st down

 

[84lion]

Nice spot there for Our Lady

 

[Tom McAndrew]

DDS with a sack!

 

[Phlebitis]

Can’t put a finger on why but Marcus Freeman is annoying as hell.

 

[Calabrin]

The adjustment ND made at halftime was specifically:

"Stack the box. Bring the pressure. Force them to pass. This kid can't hit his targets."

 

[CDLionFL]

And now he whiffs as the gunner

And now can't cover a ******* wideout

 

[Phlebitis]

ND with best Wr‘s in the nation!!!

 

[Tom McAndrew]

Leonard is hit on 3rd & 9 (PSU blitzed), but ND with a completion to Greathouse. smh

 

[WestSideLion]

This program just caves in big games. It’s clockwork.

 

[BiochemPSU]

Their an is making plays, ours isn’t

 

[84lion]

Big 12: "Notre Dame, join our conference and you can get favorable calls like this every week!"

 

[Phlebitis]

Getting their asses handed to them at the moment. This is hard to watch.

 

[s1uggo72]

We’ll find out now !

 

[CoolBean]

Yards in 3rd quarter PSU 25, ND 128

Offense needs to be better, much better

 

[harjeff]

Seems like we expected the backup QB in the 2nd half and when Leanord came back Allen didn't have a clue.

 

[CDLionFL]

They give up a TD on this drive, it's done.

 

[SouthHalls410]

I just can’t stand ND their fans, fans that live in W PA near me. Their holier than though Catholic in name only attitudes. Ughhhhh Where’s the Tylenol.

 

[Phlebitis]

Seems like we expected the backup QB in the 2nd half and when Leanord came back Allen didn't have a clue.

Didn’t even think of that.

 

[psuno1]

Sutton got held not called.

Leonard is hit on 3rd & 9 (PSU blitzed), but ND with a completion to Greathouse. smh

 

[Tom McAndrew]

 

[Nittering Nabob]

Gents,

I unfortunately think this game is over. Not because PSU has't played well. . These officials simply refuse to call penalties (overt holding) against ND.

You can't outplay orchestrated scripts.

 

[jp3272]

So it’s 0-0 and 15 minutes to go

 

[WestSideLion]

Marcus Freeman is a pillar of cool and confidence. You can see the difference it made.

 

[PrtLng Lion]

Well I thought before tonight we were a “2nd half team”.

 

[LionsAndBears]

OMG, I stepped away for a moment and see the Chicken Littles came out.

 

[Paws057]

I just can’t stand ND their fans, fans that live in W PA near me. Their holier than though Catholic in name only attitudes. Ughhhhh Where’s the Tylenol.

You need the whisky bottle

 

[Tom McAndrew]

jet sweep by ND on 3rd & 2 down to the PSU 16. smh

 

[LionsAndBears]

Hold to a FG here boys!

 

[Phlebitis]

Only question is how far are they going to be behind after this drive?

 

[CDLionFL]

WHY THE **** IS KOBE KING GETTING CAUGHT IN COVERAGE??

 

[Paws057]

One thing is for sure King is not a DB

 

[CoolBean]

Wow, defense just terrible this half

 

[BiochemPSU]

Defense looks about done

 

[Shadow99]

PSU has had crappy field position all night. Seems to me ND has had descent starting position all night

Compared to the talent in other areas of the team, PSU punting is...
Well, it's...
well, let's be nice to the player who is doing his best.

 

[Nittering Nabob]

Can’t put a finger on why but Marcus Freeman is annoying as hell.

The smugness

 

[Tom McAndrew]

PI on Kobe King just outside the endzone.

ND with a 1st down on the PSU 2
