Game Thread: Penn State

[Roger_Podacter]

Penn State might put up 70 today.

PSU beat Idaho 79-7 in 2019 season opener, for reference.

Let's see Penn State rated #7 FBS team in the country. Number 7 power rakning in FBS. Two players projected to be first round draft choices. A 5 star rated QB.

Tres reported we are getting $400,000 to play Penn State. Maybe this humiliation would be worth it if was for 1 Mil.

I believe Franklin wants a 70-7 finish here. I know people on the board will jump on me, but this is a game that should never have happened. I understand it can be a selling point to recruits and transfers, but I'm not so sure a blow-out will be a great selling point. Want to schedule a FBS team- stay away from P5 teams or at least the top tier teams in those conferences. Look what Rutgers did to us. Stick with FBS teams we can compete with on the field. I can't wait for this game to be over. Hopefully no injuries. There will be few positives coming out of this game. Franklin finishes it 70-7 he is a p**ck.

Why aren’t we using a spy on Pribula? Or sending the house almost every play or at least on first n second down

nice tip of the pass by Mulumba

Terrible decision by Marker lead to the pick 6

$400K would be less than DelState received for recent slaughters at Michigan and Florida State (both over $500K if memory serves).

Army up 36-0 in late 3Q over Hornets.

Couldn't agree more. Before the game everyone knew we didn't belong on the same field. Now all doubt is gone and we proved we don't play the same sport. Why anyone looks to be embarrassed and play the fool is beyond me.

Anybody in UD athletics who advocated for this game should be stripped to their skivvies onstage at the next convocation so they know how public humiliation feels.

Writing a letter to Chrissi as we speak. This is an embarrassment for UD

Total Plays: 51-22 PSU

First Downs: 20-2 PSU

One of those first downs was the offsides penalty on the punt.

The D players have to be dragging. They get no help from the O and have been out there all day. Can you imagine playing your guts out only to have the other team sub in third stringers as good or better than you. Take the 400 k and put it to good use.

[Roger_Podacter]

UD only got $400k for this??!!?!??!

Jesus effing Christ.

Play the Big Boys, but don’t play the BIG BIG boys.

[cougarpines1]

I just can't understand how this helps recruiting. I can imagine the conversation when the players go home and walk into their local watering hole.

[Cluck U]

Well, so much for being on their side of the field.
