USC PSU Game Thread

Time to visit BWI to see what's up over there....

REPORT: They are happy with the season, heartbroken over the loss, but not nearly as dickish as we are when we lose. Then again, their standards are higher than ours.

Franklin is a GREAT recruiter. BUT He lost the game with the conservative prevent offense before the INT.

gotta give credit to theUSC QB. the kids a baller

I know this will upset you but Franklin wasn't responsible for the play calling at the end.
 
Classic game. Surprised PSU didn't play it safe after the near-INT on 2nd down. Onions to leave it up to a 46 yard FG too.
 
DArnold is the best QB in college football.

Any relation to Tom D.Arnold ?

Let's see who/what will be the excuse for this loss:
A. The officiating
B. Injuries
C. The sanctions
D. The NCAA
E. Herbstreit &Fowler
F. Jim Delaney
G. The Russians
H. All of the above?

Time for a drive and a FG.

Great game.
Was a great game, just not the ending you envisioned.
I caught the end but from this thread sounded like a great game and you lost your cool a couple of times.
That tends to happen when you're posting on a site that has a lot of posters that doesn't like your team very much .
 
Great game. I am old but BYU and SMU played a bowl game a long time ago and BYU came back from like 20 points down and won I believe on the last play of game. SMU had Eric Dickerson and James. This game was better.

He's the head coach. If he doesn't have a say in the final 2 minutes with a 1 possession lead, someone should get him some women's underwear.
 
Disagree. No one has an arm like him in college, and hasn't for awhile.
He has a good arm and good pocket presence, but Watson has that, too. But Watson is more explosive when he takes off and runs. Darnold can run, too, but not like Watson. It's splitting hairs, but I still give the nod to Watson.
 
Beautiful!!!!

Penn State blows a 14 point lead to Lose.:smiley:

Jimmy (Dominate the State) Franklin cannot win when it comes to crunch time.[banana]

Great!!!!

USC beats Penn State!!!!

PITT beat Penn State!!!!

HAIL TO PITT!!!!

Whether you believe he was responsible or not, Franklin is the one who will get the kudos if successful and the insults if it doesn't end well.
Just say it was a hellofa game but the Nits just fell short at the end.
As for the play calling: I think whoever was calling the Nit's offense wanted to run down the clock a little bit then get in FG range with very little time left so USC wouldn't have but a few seconds if even got the ball back.
Not playing for a tie and OT , when there's a chance to win, was a move I can respect and agree with.
So ,for me, Franklin/Moorhead made the right calls, that didn't work out.
If PSU got into FG range and made it to win game, Franklin would be called a genius

Have to disagree with you on this one. Darnold is a better passer than Watson by a fair amount. And he's 19! Kid's amazing. As always, I'm in complete agreement with Cali on this one.

Fair enough.

He will still end the season with a T10 team. Great season for his kids and despite tonight being a tough loss, that's the way it goes sometimes.
 
Great game by both teams. Franklin blew it. I can see maybe trying to get that FG.. but after a near INT.. why would you throw long AGAIN? I guess the thought is that a long into will be like a punt and with 30 secs left you can stop them. But tat's crazy too.. this is college.. clock stops on 1st downs and that QB was HOT.

FRANKLIN BLEW IT.

Even if it wasn't his play call.. no way you see that first near INT and then let the OC call another long pass.. NO WAY.

He doesn't have a good arm. He has an amazing arm. Strong and accurate. Can run and has unreal pocket sense. Barring injury he goes higher in the draft than Watson does. Watson can run better, but his arm is nothing like Darnolds. Kid was dropping darted dimes the whole game.
