Official PSU - FIU game thread

[Tom McAndrew]

Please use this thread for all pre-game, in-game, and post-game discussion of the Penn State - Floriday International game.

I have to start this early, as I'm traveling a bunch today, and also attending two gatherings. In short, I'll not be following the game, except for occasional visits to this thread.

We Are ...

- never a fan of noon EDT/EST kickoffs
- hoping to see evidence that PSU has worked out some of the kings from their opening game
- curious to see which true freshmen get to play
- hoping that the rain stays away for those at the game
- expecting an easy PSU victory

... Penn State!!!

The 46-11 PSU -Nevada final is the only time that score occurred in CFB or NFL, fyi.

Ever?

Ever?

SCORIGAMI! Penn State and Nevada's 46-11 score has never happened before. This is the first this season.​

Good game to get Singleton and Allen some stats and work the kinks out of the run game.

Agreed! Let’s ground and pound today. Get the Oline running tip top.

We are doomed.

 

[Nittany1865Farmer]

Can we all chip in a few dollars and buy the BTN network a sound microphone system which can actually pick up the Blue Band?? Sounded like they were playing at the bottom of a well with jello stuffed in the bells of the tuba......

 

[Paws057]

Kind of a small crowd today

 

[BobPSU92]

For f*ck’s sake.

 

[Paws057]

For f*ck’s sake.

FFS?

 

[BobPSU92]

Kind of a small crowd today

It looks like we lost about 30% of the fans after last week’s poor performance.

 

[BobPSU92]

FFS?

Starting with the negativity. I’m locked the f*ck in.

 

[Paws057]

It looks like we lost about 30% of the fans after last week’s poor performance.

They are pacing themselves for the long season?

 

[Big_O]

So what’s the “official“ attendance? 110k, lol?

Looks like maybe 75K.

 

[WestSideLion]

They’re pushing the running game early. Good. Work out the kinks.

 

[Paws057]

Well that was less than impressive.

 

[Big_O]

Looks like a major miscommunication on 3rd down in that last series.

 

[pendal1]

Well that was less than impressive.

Andy running sideline to sideline instead of power when he supposedly has the great oline. And I'm sorry but I punt there.
Positive is Fisher looked great.

 

[Paws057]

Coleman looking good

 

[NittPicker]

I like the unique eye design on the shoulders of the FIU uniforms.

 

[NittPicker]

James now thinking maybe he should have punted.

 

[Nittany1865Farmer]

Give credit to FIU for not being scared of PSU. They are playing with nothing to lose.

 

[Paws057]

I take it the team didn’t stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night?

 

[PrtLng Lion]

Huge stop on 4th down ! Lots of pressure there

 

[Calabrin]

I think some players decided to stay up late last night.

 

[ZouaveLion]

Drew throwing off his back foot too much

 

[Big_O]

That #0 for FIU is a beast.

 

[Calabrin]

Drew throwing off his back foot too much

Persistent problem throughout his career. Amazing that they can't coach him out of that.

 

[KingLando]

Noon start against a team they expect to beat by 50--slow start was expected

 

[Calabrin]

Noon start against a team they expect to beat by 50--slow start was expected

Yup. Not really an excuse, but... this is the problem when you schedule cupcakes that the team goes in expecting to pummel and then they get a noon kickoff.

 

[Calabrin]

This vaunted O-line is allowing an awful lot of pressure to get through against [checks notes] Florida International??

 

[Big_O]

Working the TE game more today.

 

[KingLando]

Good to see the TEs involved
