Official PSU - Oregon '25 Game thread

[Nittering Nabob]

This OL is very disappointing…2 stud backs consistently getting contact at/behind the LOS.

Oregano is creating holes...PSU not so much.

 

[bdgan]

We knew the offense was going to be different. We knew the gimmicks were coming. And I don’t like the gimmicks.

Just wait until we see what they do off the Pena jet sweep later in the game … will it be a straight reverse? A pass back to Allar to throw downfield? Both those things?

Pena can outrun Villanova defenders. Not so much Oregon defenders.

 

[Player2BNamedL8r]

Nobody gets open on this team. Allar needs to be better, but he hasn’t had much help from his WRs during his career.

 

[Nittanybear]

The route combinations are terrible. No WR would get open.

Exactly. WRs all on hook routes and just stopped and stood there.

 

[NittanyChris]

Any news on the Rojas injury?

 

[MtNittany]

A very nice kick. I would have punted.

You don't like points?

 

[Moogy]

Like: motion and shifts to keep a defense guessing

Hate: gimmick plays and bad route trees

additional hate: running tempo and play 2 is a basic run right up the middle, killing tempo

 

[Big_O]

The offense continues to struggle. Just looks very anemic.

 

[KingLando]

Lack of a downfield passing game. Again. Blame Allar. Blame the receivers. Blame the oline. Blame the OC.
Doesn't matter...same result

We saw the overhead of that play--nothing was available--awful route combinations. HS coaches are better.

 

[Paws057]

So far the offensive line is, well, offensive!

 

[Tom McAndrew]

for amusement:

PSU Football tweeted out at the end of the 1st quarter that the score was 31-0, PSU, at the end of the quarter.

Four minutes later they corrected themselves, and tweeted out that it was 0-0 at the end of the 1st quarter

 

[SleepyLion]

You don't like points?

points are for winners.

 

[KingLando]

Exactly. WRs all on hook routes and just stopped and stood there.

Right they just stopped--like what is happening

You can achieve what you believe.

Or some BS like that.

 

[laKavosiey-st lion]

No!

 

[Tom McAndrew]

3rd & 8, Oregon, at the PSU 34 ...

Moore is chased, and drives to the 29

4th & 3, so Oregon is going to go for a FG

It's a 47-yard attempt ...

The kick is WIDE LEFT!!!!

 

[KingLando]

Nice stand again

 

[Big_O]

For as bad as Penn State has been playing, they are actually winning.

Scandal when the final score is 31-0.

 

[KingLando]

The defense is legit--they'll keep us in every game IMO
We just have to simplify the offense

 

[NedFromYork]

Have they announced the attendance?

 

[SleepyLion]

Scandal when the final score is 31-0.

 

[BVSt.Paul]

A long drive with a score would do wonders

 

[Tom McAndrew]

 

[hapval8286]

THere's no way the defensive front can keep up this pace through the fourth quarter. They will be gassed big time. The offense needs a long drive or two to keep them off the field.

 

[KingLando]

A long drive with a score would do wonders

I just want a couple good play calls lol

 

[DaytonRickster]

Nice stand again

I am concerned about that big Oregon OL wearing the PSU DL down. PSU offense needs a sustained drive w/points so the defense can rest.

 

[KingLando]

Again, no one open--per Blackledge--it's all scheme

 

[bdgan]

#1 was wide open on 2nd down if Allar throws quickly. We had a receiver deep on 3rd down because they didn't have a safety. But rush didn't give Allar time.

 

[KingLando]

#1 was wide open if Allar throws quickly

No he wasn't--as Blackledge said

 

[Tom McAndrew]

3rd & 7 for PSU ...

Allar just throws it too high for Reynolds, under great blitz pressure

PSU to punt

 

[Tom McAndrew]

Oregon takes over on their 25

 

[PSU87]

A long drive with a score would do wonders

Or a 3 and out

 

[DaytonRickster]

#1 was wide open if Allar throws quickly

Exactly.

 

[The real m.knox]

A long drive with a score would do wonders

Yeah, it would have.....

 

[Bid D from Philly]

Zero blitz with no hot route. Should have been an easy dump off.

 

[SleepyLion]

2 guys open on that play.

 

[Big_O]

Penn State offense has no answers for the Oregon defense.

 

[psu0408]

No quick throws, no moving the pocket, no designed runs for allar

 

[KingLando]

Zero blitz with no hot route. Should have been an easy dump off.

That's not our scheme--AK has to go--we've fired an OC midseason before
