PENN ST. ...

[GaRed]

What actually impressed me from both teams were their running backs.. I was watching and thinking, jeez.. we haven't had backs like either team in quite a number of years now..

Yeah it was a reality check watching those guys.

They had 3 timeouts they weren't going to run the clock.

So they should have gotten the ball back with about 9 seconds on their side of the field with no timeouts.

Penn St. would be better off with ND's backup QB. Gotta hand it to that guy with the mobster name, he pretty much jump started ND and took them into half with something to feel good about.

Although ND lucked out when he got the ball stripped, that guy threw the best passes of the night. Getting the FG before halftime was big.

Yeah, the guy playing on one leg looked better than any of ours.

Because he is.

You dress up as Cher for PSU? Bro..? You know what? I’m getting ahead of myself. You could easily just be an ugly chick

I had a few Cool-Aids in me my friend. Good one though.

I know, not sure what difference that makes. They still threw a terrible pick with time winding down, gifting ND the short side of the field and a game winning FG. Like Nebraska Iowa just about every year.

They ran it and gained 13 yards. Decided to end it after that. Probably a bad decision since ND has the best secondary in the country but with 3 timeouts you have to try to get into gf range

I get that, and don’t blame them for trying to get into FG range. They still channeled their inner Nebraska by turning it over in the waning seconds gifting ND the game. Very familiar ending.

What actually impressed me from both teams were their running backs players at almost every position.. I was watching and thinking, jeez.. we haven't had backs players like either team in quite a number of years now.

Fixed for accuracy. Sadly 😞

McSorley was better than the rest of em. Thought he was a great college QB his last year or two.

Would be a strange move

Must be a big paycheck involved. Clemson is a program in decline and is in the woeful ACC. Penn State was just in the playoff semifinals, is in the B1G and is in the process of a $750 million renovation of Beaver Stadium. Makes no sense for him to go to Clemson unless there are big bucks involved.

This year's Penn St team IMO was the best team they've had since Franklin showed up. ND is a great team & PSU nearly pulled it out. Ohio St is a great team & they played them close.

Yes they had a pretty easy path but Boise & SMU were still pretty good teams (tho definitely not great like UGA, Oregon etc).

I think Franklin will have PSU back in the playoffs again soon. Just my opinion...

 

[Landomatic]

I don't like Penn State. That is all

 

[Mrs.Jeans15]

Good.

Hope he leaves. We play them next year.

It's official now.


"Allen inked a 3-year deal that will pay him $1.9 million in 2025, $2 million in 2026 and $2.1 million in 2027.

That's a substantial step up from what Allen earned at Penn State and from what Clemson paid former defensive coordinator Wes Goodwin.

Allen made $1.5 million at Penn State in 2024 and was set to earn $1.6 million in 2025, per the terms of his previous deal. Clemson paid Goodwin $1.4 million."
