4th & 3 for PSU ... they go for it, PSU receiver (Rapp) slips down, but a flag on the play, appears to be against Clemson. After discussion, they pick up the flag, so Clemson takes over on downs.

I believe this offense’s success-rate on plays when they run hurry-up is quite poor. On a fourth down play, just call a normal play.

Simple answer to your last query is that the players are getting paid. Yes, it’s not pay for play but it’s a lot of money they’re making. Before NIL only the most hardline of fans had a problem with players opting out of meaningless bowl games. Now, it’s a different story with NIL. I personally have no problem with players opting out but I easily understand the contrary view.

And someone asked this question, why not opt out against Rutgers? How was this year’s Rutgers game any more important than today’s bowl game? I don’t have an answer to that.
Amazing that he doesn’t care about the bowl game - as he says about 20 times a day - yet feels the need to be involved in the thread.

They should re-name this bowl - "Thank the Lord there is Alcohol" because it's the only thing to numb the pain of watching it...

LOL, it is funny though. Refs and announcers don't want to be there, so cold they're forgetting or bungling what they say all the time. Skycam doesn't work. The grass is brownish gray. The fake punt pass to nowhere takes the cake so far.

So basically a complete bleep show

One of the announcers on Campbell: “...perfect alignment with the president…”

We’re doing a fine job of staying in front of the chains.

As a selfish fan, he better play. These are professionals now and we’re paying them to entertain us. I’m not donating to their NIL to watch them save themselves for the Carolina Panthers.
This. You try that at a real, non-sports job, you don't get hired again.

Why was the PSU timeout on a 3rd down a 30 second TO, but the one Clemson just took goes to a commercial and they get more than a minute?
