Greg nailed it. Stupid game plan....... "Balance".... Last time I checked, points won football games.

Penn State attempted the fewest passes of any Big Ten opponent that played the nation’s worst pass defense this season on Saturday.

“Greg Pickel, BWI, Penn State offense picks wrong game for balance; why didn’t it pass more?”

That was the brilliant strategery by the offensive savant James Franklin.

Running on first down is not a tendency buster anymore guys. Neither are the slow developing qb draws with our injured QB. In telling you guys, our offense always reverts back to franklin/rahne ball towards the end of the season. We were doing some nice things offensively in the first half of the season, then we just got back to pounding the ball(which we can't do) and running qb draws. Staples of Franklin's offense is predictability, poor offense lines, and injured QBs.

Another article talks about MSU playing with 6 in the box, daring PSU to run, and we still couldn’t run the ball.
