Why? Because he's done such an amazing job this year? Much lesser programs in the country can score TDs. Heck, Chattanooga scored on Alabama. How many have we scored in the last 3 games? Hate my take but it's not untrue.
Best thing that happened for PSU. We can’t stop QB runs against average OLs. What do you expect? It’s not like he’s lighting it up in the air. Hasn’t thrown a single pass.
IT IS A FRESHMAN QB WITH NEW OCs RUNNING THE OFFENSE. THEY ARE WALKING DOWNFIELD ON OUR STARTERS!

One hasn’t or won’t throw a pass and I thought that would be our opportunity to win this one
I'm generally pretty critical of the referees, but they in no way shanked us this game.
I mean our starting LT is a kid that everyone thought would never play football again. His mobility is severely lessened. OLine just has no depth and our starters, while coached up tremendously just aren't very talented.
They have a good OL and we can't get any pressure. He's not being asked to do much. We can't block for **** on offense.
This is not uncommon for schiano. The defense is super prepared for everything a team has put on tape, but when things switch up to a backup quarterback that has little tape, the defense is not so well prepared.
Without the ability to execute the passing game we had no chance. It's the same old game plan. D plays great for a half and we keep it close. Then we go down by more than a score and it's game over. Schiano is married to Gavin and refuses to make a change. What did he have to lose to try and let Simon open up the passing game? Couldn't do any worse.
It really is a waste to watch these games against ranked opponents with good Ds until they get a QB and show some semblance of an offense. There's zero chance (100 percent zero chance) they'll knock off a team like PSU with this O

We are taking a lot of injuries that will impact chances next week
JO response after the game he played today.
Loser mentality. That’s in our OL and strong a fresh mistake of fading on a blitz. Gotta turn around and come back. He makes that catch if so.
But continue with the woe me narrative
Worst fans. 6 year olds
On a blitz as well!! Freshman mistake. Happens . Throw was good. Was 3rd and 22
Should not have run on 2- 23
We are still at least two years away from actually being a real threat to the top 1/3 of the league. Need more depth at every position. Need to flush out some of the OL that have been here now 3 years and no longer progressing, need TEs, and will need more LBs and DTs. Transfer portal is critical this offseason to not take too far a step back.
There will always be arguable calls, but the refs were well within tolerance thresholds for me today.
ITS THE #12 TEAM IN THE COUNTRY WITH A TEAM THAT IS STACKED THROUGH OUT THEIR DEPTH CHART WITH 4 AND 5 STAR PLAYERS. DOES WRITING THIS IN ALL CAPS MAKE THE POINT MORE CLEAR SOMEHOW?
And that will not change in the next 2 years, therfore you need a QB tat can make plays. This QB can only make a couple decent runs per game and make a handful of 10 yard passes. Not good enough. If it's the best we got we go with it....but don't expect ANYTHING! There is a reason we only have 5 plays in the playbook.
We scored 6 points. How anyone could put this on the defense is crazy.
You don't think that defense gets demoralized watching the offense do nothing series after series?
We aren’t a threat to anybody in this league and we are adding UCLA, USC, Washington and Oregon. This league is just going to get tougher and we are going to stay the same. Perennial Bottom feeder with nothing to show.
There was a holding call that was missed causing a pass interference to be called, against us. But you're right, it wasn't bad today.
I agree with the premise of more offense. Have been begging for it for like 15 years before all the tempo offenses became a thing but I also realize we are what we are and the coach is who he is.
Our personnel is what it is and this is the philosophy they feel gives the best chance to compete and hopefully win.
What Minn did with Tanner Morgan and Ibrahim is the best you can hope for but they also benefited from being in the west.
A really good job is what Oregon State has done with Jonathan Smith. They are a very physical team on both offense and defense. They’re ranked top 15ish area in multiple offensive categories and their defense is ranked in the 30s too so it hasn’t come at the expense of the D either. Last year they had a qb who could barely throw and they still wound up with 10 wins.
