Official PSU - NW '25 Game thread

[KingLando]

It’s comical seeing Allar “rack up” another set of below average stats (he’s made a career of it) yet be defended as if he’s really Peyton Manning saddled with a supporting cast and coaching staff that are a combination of F Troop and the Three Stooges. The coaches and the teammates may be lousy and deserving of those monikers, but Allar is a combination of Corporal Agarn and Shemp. Yes, I’m old — Google the references if necessary. Translation: The coaches and the OL and receivers may not be good, but neither is Allar.

I'm really not sure what you want him to do
The pick was awful. The throw that was short to Singleton was bad but other than that he's not played poorly.
Then we have this mistake on the kick return

 

[leinbacker]

All I can say is wow, just wow.

 

[Bkmtnittany1]

PSU is the dumbest team in the country

 

[Paws057]

They lose this game it’s going to get real ugly the rest of the season….

Just mirroring their coach

 

[ZouaveLion]

Who the hell is #34!

 

[Moogy]

Allen had plenty of room to make someone miss on that “screen” and decided to run right into the only tackler.

 

[KingLando]

They lose this game it’s going to get real ugly the rest of the season….

If we lose today, at the very least, AK better be gone

 

[Fred8811]

Finally Rutgers year.

 

[Calabrin]

Good thing we have Ross.

 

[StamfordBridgeVikingatLeftOffensiveTackle]

Time for one of those methodical, 18 play, 91 yard drives.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

Ross takes the 3rd down pass all the way to the NW 20 or 19!!!!!

I think it was a 67-yard catch (most of the yardage was YAC)

 

[KingLando]

Can't believe Ross got caught
Allar's number now looks decent lol

 

[Midnighter]

NW has 1st & goal at the PSU 9:

1st: run for 1. Collins comes in to make the stop
2nd: stopped as we've reached the end of the 3rd qtr
2nd: incomplete pass
NW's WR is down -- looks to be a cramp
3rd: sacked by Fisher at the PSU 23!!!

Fisher and DDS were both after him. He tripped on his own, and then Fisher touched him.

41-yard FG attempt by NW ....

is good. 16-14, NW, with 14:08 left in the game

Everyone predicting PSU/Texas in the NC game…

 

[Tom McAndrew]

Kaytron, TD!!!!!

91-yard drive for PSU!!!

Edit: after review, he's ruled down at the half-yard line

 

[KingLando]

What a run by Allen

 

[Calabrin]

I think he's down before he crosses. Ball at the 1...?

 

[PrtLng Lion]

Explosive plays just as AK drew them up

 

[StamfordBridgeVikingatLeftOffensiveTackle]

The Wildcats have awaken a sleeping Lion.

 

[KingLando]

I think he's down before he crosses. Ball at the 1...?

Probably--still great run

 

[Tom McAndrew]

1st: Kaytron tries to leap over the pile, and they rule his short.
2nd: Allar, on a sneak for the TD!!!

91-yard drive for PSU

 

[KingLando]

Can we not have our power back leaping over the line?

 

[StamfordBridgeVikingatLeftOffensiveTackle]

Smashmouth baby!

 

[Tom McAndrew]

With the PAT, it's 21-16, PSU, with 10:45 left in the game.

 

[Bison13]

Go for two there

 

[Nittering Nabob]

9-16 for 63 yards and an INT is pretty below average in this day and age. It might have been acceptable the first year of the forward pass.

Please don't be a PSU QB hater. Are you a Pitt fan?

 

[PSUcup]

Why not go for 2 there ?

 

[MtNittany]

The first play from the one yard line - what was PSU doing w/ quick line-up and the shifts? It looked like a scene from a HS production of West Side Story or something. Line up and run the stupid ball you stupid coaches.

 

[KingLando]

Why not go for 2 there ?

His chart didn't tell him to

 

[Tom McAndrew]

Gabe's KO goes into the endzone, so NW takes over on their 25

 

[BobPSU92]

Defense wins championships.

 

[StamfordBridgeVikingatLeftOffensiveTackle]

Turnover time!

 

[Paws057]

Third and long, no problem!

 

[PSUcup]

Pathetic

 

[Calabrin]

3rd and long... easily converted again.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

the crowd is now into the game.

3rd & 8 at the NW 27 ...

caught for a 1st down a nice slant pattern smh

Woseley, in single coverage, got beat and then didn't make the tackle

 

[KingLando]

Can;t stop any 3rd & long

 

[StamfordBridgeVikingatLeftOffensiveTackle]

Bend but don't break.

 

[Psu00]

Wow a slant pass! Haven’t seen one of those at the Beav in a while.

 

[DaytonRickster]

Why not go for 2 there ?

The defense needs to switch to 3 LBers. Two is not working out. Try Campbell, Wylie, with Speca or Tastch. Deluca just isn't strong or quick enough to get off blocks or cover TEs
