Terry Smith is soooool much better to listen to. I felt for him there post game
Love it when whiners whine about other whiners whining!!Nice to have a win.
Wonder what all the whiners will have to bit** about.
Watch a few of the replays cbs showed, they were blanketed because there’s no real concept used to get them open.
To be fair, he hasn't been doing this for decades. He also knows he's only coaching 2 more games--3 with a bowl
Premature prediculation. It’s an epidemic on this board.
We have the QB, just no back up , WR's can't get open. The FG choice was probably
due to winds and distance.
I was wondering the same. That young man was beat up, both shoulders either injured or bruised.
I did feel bad for him. The CBS crew said the available back-up was a true Freshman who had not played. OK, the game was over, put the Freshman in to finish to avoid more serious injury to the current starter.
Nice to have a win.

We gave up 10 points. For f*ck‘s sake.
Tough day for you. We won. Not 3-9.
Winds were calm at the time. FGA would have been the better decision.
The trophy is like it had to have one item from every aisle at Home Depot
I have no idea about a likely coach but I have to say that for me, this was the most pleasant win since Iowa 2017. Most will disagree but so what?
And the designer went on shopping sprees at both the MSU and PSU student book stores.
In a season where there hasn't been a whole lot to get excited about, that drive that took nine minutes off the clock was perhaps not a thing of beauty, but "epic." No, Grunkemeyer isn't the 2nd coming of Kerry Collins, but he did with his feet what Kerry used to do with his arm - and he really looked like he was leading the team. And Kaytron Allen more than earned his pay today. OK, it's only Michigan State, but a win's a win. Oh, and I saw some very nice tackling by the D - hit the guy solid and wrap him up. The team played very well today. I hope they can keep this mojo going. Glad, too, for Terry Smith - he deserved this win.
PSU staff continues to play not to lose instead of playing to win. Today it worked out because MSU is a bad team.
50 runs, only 13 passes. Most of the pass attempts were after running on first and second down but still having more than 5 yds to go. That puts a lot of pressure on Grunk.

Grunkemeyer threw with his feet?
He makes every day tough for himself. He should take his meds and mellow out. Maybe he wouldn't be seen as an unhinged laughing stock he's carried himself as for years
Sometimes it doesn't exactly resemble football either

They're saving that for Nebraska, they'll never see it coming
He wouldn’t have gotten those first downs had he slid…you lose a yard or so when you do that.
Outside of Dinkins yes. Reynolds has been pretty bad this year and he wasn't very good in this game.
Agree, but on most of the replays where QB Grunk dropped back, didn't see many receivers getting open. Very seldom saw a WR come back toward the QB
I'm going to disagree with you a little on that. I saw at least 3 or 4 times there was an open WR. This was not Grunk's best game but I will say his scrambling broke things open for the rest of the running game.
True. We were sitting on the 50 yd line and the Line Judge was short spotting PSU on most every play.
When Grunk slid earlier in the game the spots were horrible. I thought the LJ shorted him a yard on his run down to the 8. They spotted it at the 9
What was funny was on the long play, suddenly all three receivers were open.
Grunk looks downfield. Allar did not. That at least loosens the LB’s from the LOS. He had few options on most of those pass plays. His protection was decent, just nowhere to go. On some plays he looked downfield a loooong time before giving up.
Grunk will be quite good, unless Hagans stays here.
I just read that Penn St s opponents in these first 10 games have had 34 penalties combined called against them....hellava bunch of disciplined teams...what a joke...
