Then we should not be scheduling teams like this for our 1st game if "it doesn't matter". Play some scrub team and feel good about. yourself. Instead, unless things change dramatically in the 2nd half, after this game you will have nothing be questions and negativity going forward from the fanbase.This game is really meaningless for the season. Would have been a program defining opportunity. Still have a chance to get better in conference and make noise. Will they? Not likely under Brown.

My thoughts so far is that you cannot tell that we did much or any improving in the off-season. Greene is still inaccurate. Our OL is still getting pushed back in the backfield. Our WR's still can't get open. And our head coach continues to make head scratching decisions early by going for it instead of taking the points.
With a 5'10 and under 200 lbs QB. That had me breaking **** in the living room.Head scratching 4th and 1s running up the middle
Only if it's so long that they call the game and call it a "no contest". :joy:Weather getting nasty. A long delay might help.
With Donaldson and our supposed line advantage, that is not a terrible call. However running it out of the damn shotgun where the RB has to take the hand off, get a head of steam without a lead blocker and thus allow Penn State to flow to the ball is stupid. Get under center and run a power I dive with a damn d-line man as lead blocker if you have to.Head scratching 4th and 1s running up the middle
Or finish the second half at the end of the year when they're playing better.Only if it's so long that they call the game and call it a "no contest". :joy:
Or do a Tavon Austinesque tap pass. Penn State has too much speed and braun. We can’t sustain pounding at them.With Donaldson and our supposed line advantage, that is not a terrible call.

Donaldson stutter steps and hesitates too much instead of plowing straight ahead.With Donaldson and our supposed line advantage, that is not a terrible call.

Depends on the contract.If it’s called, does it just not count for anyone?
I agree and I think they have changed their mentality on scheduling games like this with the playoff format.Then we should not be scheduling teams like this for our 1st game if "it doesn't matter".

If you can't beat top teams like this, why would you be worried about making the playoffs? You're clearly not the best team in the country.I agree and I think they have changed their mentality on scheduling games like this with the playoff format.
Meh, this is a nostalgia game.....and the trouble with nostalgia...things are never as good as you remember them to be.I agree and I think they have changed their mentality on scheduling games like this with the playoff format.

Today? No. But this team was clearly playing better late in the season last year than they were early in the season. I think we will be lucky to get 6 wins but for those who are more optimistic, I think a team can get better each week and we do not have another Penn State on our schedule.If you can't beat top teams like this, why would you be worried about making the playoffs? You're clearly not the best team in the country.

Good thing we are the home team then. Since it is a non-conference game, our conference rules/policies trump their desires.PSU isn't walking away from this without a W

Yes. But that is mostly used when games are blowouts (ex. 45-3) and there's not any hope for the other team to come back and win. With it being a 2 TD game, I'd say that calling the game with a determined final score would be an option that would be difficult to make.2. Terminate the game with a determined final score;
PSU would be happy to end this...right now...as long as they get the W and the score doesn't change.
