Penn state

That's why I love college football. Glad I chose to watch that game over Texas-Baylor.

ThaTopMoron · 10-24-20, 06:45 PM

there has got to be at least 1 guy in the huddle who on that play tells the guy you have to go down if you get the first down if you score we are only up 8 if we make the PAT

how DUMB can you get?

never mind... I just got done watching middle tenn state vs rice

Big10 proves, year in and year out, it is the best conference for all sports

And that was the alleged #2 team in the Little 10? What a joke. Ohio State will coast until they play Wisconsin and then may actually have to play a good half to win.

Penn state should've kneeled when they were up 1.

So true! Reminds me of Boise years ago vs Oklahoma.

Who do you propose should be the highest paid? Football funds entire schools. Of course they should run the roost. That’s the definition of capitalism.

Up 1 with 1:21 left, and IU only had 1 timeout left......that’s Checkmate unless you get too cute.

Why not just take a knee?

Totally agree. No reason to run a play other than victory formation. James Franklin cost them the game more than the running back did.

Huh? When is the last time the B10 won a football, basketball or baseball title? Are you talking about bowling?

I thought Indy had 2 timeouts left? Either way, you cannot score in that spot. Indy let him score. Very poor coaching.

I can’t wait to hear an explanation. Will Franklin fall on the sword or hang the RB out to dry?

thomorino · 10-24-20, 07:04 PM

Franklin isn’t a good coach, Barkley was one of the best coaches in the history of college football, he made him look good.

No reason to not run another play with 8 seconds left and try to get closer to for the field goal, 8 seconds is a lot of time, Indiana should have had someone back there to try and return the kick too.

Mr KLC · 10-24-20, 07:08 PM

Penn State needs to bring back Bill O'Brien. He can't trade anybody there.

What’s the fade tomorrow fat boy?

swordsandtequila · 10-24-20, 07:10 PM

I needed ot so I lost either way, but that call was gutless and wrong. Ball clearly hit the ground out of bounds before the pylon but they let it stand? This is why people hate officials and the idiots that run sports. Millions of people watching on big screens and these fuks are looking at ipads. Mike Pereira talking about whether it broke the plane first, dumbass the pylon is the plane. Ground first, then pylon. No good. Any other time I'd be happy Indy won, but the never ending idiocy makes it hard. This is what you get when a bunch of fukn' lawyers run the game.

Coaches making bonehead moves doesn't absolve the jerkoffs micromanaging the game.

Mac, god damn it (excuse my language) but I went to a big ten school and we win Rowing, Crew, Lacrosse and random shit all the time. Synchronized swimming pal! Cheers.

He’s not a good coach. Lots of hype but makes some real dumb decisions.

That was one of the closest calls I’ve ever seen in sports. It looked to me that the ball hit the ground first but we didn’t have another angle where maybe the ball could have touched the pylon first? We really needed another angle to overturn the call on the field. PSU deserved to lose because they got stupid. Now maybe that RB will be a lesson to many.

PAULYPOKER · 10-24-20, 07:27 PM

Ripped from the playoffs the very 1st game and most of you don't believe refs control outcomes if need be.

Refs didn’t tell that RB to score when the game was in hand. Franklin could have taken 3 knees and gotten out of there with the win. Refs can’t fix stupid.

I need to see this.

Don't need another angle, the one from the sideline clearly shows the ball hit ground then pylon. It was close but that's what replay is for, to confirm or correct what is too difficult to see in real time. The front of the pylon is the goal line so no way it crossed before hitting the ground. Gutless.

That had nothing to do with the refs giving IU the win by ignoring obvious failed 2pt attempt.

I had nothing on the game so I'm unbiased...

Very stupid to go for win when season has just begun....

temple2010 · 10-24-20, 08:01 PM

Franklin doesn't know the clock stops on a first down lmao- he settles for a 57 yd field goal? they had 2nd and 1 from the 40yd line with 11 seconds left with the clock stopped. could have thrown anything in the middle of the field and then spike the ball. the guy is fuking disaster period.

Enikk · 10-24-20, 08:11 PM

Franklin is one of the worst 4th quarter coaches in NCAA. Not the 1st time he cost his team and unfortunately it won't be the last. Play calling all game was horrible. It is like they kept their play book as basic as possible to save it for Buckeyes. Cost your team and fan base a win asshole.

MinnesotaFats · 10-24-20, 08:29 PM

I must have watched that 10xs

Only thing I can think of is the tip/ come of the ball breaks the plane prior to hitting ground/ pylon

It's tight, but, from an eagles point of view, may actually be the right call by quarter of an inch

Nothing definitive to overturn the ref there

johnnyvegas13 · 10-24-20, 08:32 PM

Poor kid who scored for penn st at the end

thomorino · 10-24-20, 08:33 PM

Barkley is the only reason Franklin has a job

Jeezus Christ, that's impossible. The only way that could happen is if the ball hit the side of the pylon. It didn't, it hit the front. Which is even with the goal line, hence making it the same as the goal line. Pylon first, 2 pt. good. Ground first, no good. No doubt hard to call in real time. But if I can see it on a video of a video of some dude's tv, then what the fuk are the "professionals" looking at? Again, gutless. Make that call against Bama, Ohio State, Clemson, there'd be calls for an investigation.
