From what I could see, the biggest difference in the game is QB play and Ole Miss was a bit more amped up for this game.

If there's one takeaway from this debacle it's that an internal hire at either coordinator spot was not warranted. (and Franklin is a CEO coach (a good one) but one who should stay away from game planning)

Total shut down by PSU in 2nd half. It’s on the whole team and coaches. Mississippi was just better. No big deal. Our key guys out and several key guys getting banged up made it a blow out. We may have been more competitive with them but Ole Miss is a good offensive team. Very few mistakes.

Marshall will be around soon enough to tell you that Franklin is a good coach
And will show up to remind you that this game has never been referenced as a chess match in the history of football. Most likely because he wants to remove all blame from any coaching staff ever. Kiffen has checkmated James plain and simple

Na, you will attack people when this is all over. Franklin amnesia.
Only a-holes. This particular performance doesn't deserve a defense. But neither do fans who quit on "their" team in the first half.

Again, and for the umpteenth time, name the coach we can get who will be better- I'll sign right up.

I've never been one to point out specific players, but I've seen enough of #5's antics to last a lifetime. He is being worked. And that's how it goes with young players. But stop the BS after the play. An Ole Miss WR had a TD go off his hands, #5 had nothing to do with it, yet he's doing some shuck and jive thing after the play. It's stupid anytime but especially when you've been abused for an entire game. Complete lack of self-awareness. And discipline.

Thanks once again BIG game James
I feel so bad for the players to have the talent we have and to be stuck with a LOOSER for a coach. Watch for the portal to light up with psu kids and you can’t blame them.

Allar could the worst QB I can remember at Penn State. Sure there may be worse, but none come to mind at present.

One post and it’s already attack people and defend James.

I’m not on a Search committee, but there HAS to be a half dozen capable coaches out there. The patter with CJF has not changed. He cannot win a big game. Damn, he can’t even direct a competent team against good competition.

This song and dance is way overplayed

This team looks so disorganized and that is on Franklin with over a month to prepare. I get you have players sitting out and OC and DC gone but there are so many mistakes, blown plays and coverages, penalties, stunning to me with over month to prepare

Personally I’d like to thank the four players that bailed on their teammates today.

Nice way to end their Penn State careers.

May they never forget today!
I wonder how many NFL teams will hold that against them and/or what it will do to their draft status.

You wouldn’t accept the names anyway. We could name off a dozen top coordinators worth a shot, but obviously they’re unproven as head coaches. But at least there’s some chance we’d find the next top coach going that route, even if it’s more likely we end up with someone worse than Franklin. But at least there’d be hope, with Franklin there is no hope, he cannot beat a top opponent, so our ceiling is defined.

Franklin has destroyed the culture of the program, the university, and the alumni. Team is filled with nothing but opera singers.
