Can't waste the day when the night brings a hearse
People think this is a myth for some reason, but the offense always takes a step back after a bye for us. Tress being 3-4 after a bye is just as glaring as being 4-4 against Wisky. I was really hoping we could get a second score before the half to kinda wake up the offense. Glad Tress ripped them all cause they needed it.
The hold that was missed really hurt the Bucks on the first scoring drive for State Penn. That play fed the momentum for them and really led to the score.
Was glad the DBs finally adjusted to the slants that they were running like crazy.
Great Kick coverage today for once. Didn't give them any momentum after a score.
D line did ok but got eaten up alot. LBs took the brunt of that as a byproduct. Glad they all stayed healthy.
TP is still slow in trusting his reads. He makes the right read then holds it for a half second too long. The first pass was on the money but gave the db a chance to catch up. Someone brought up that he does it more when the sun goes down. Maybe a problem seeing things with the shadows?? Whatever it is, it needs to improve before he could be a legend here.
Coaches need to work on offense getting into a rhythm. They seem to wait so long to make play calls that it hinders the line and the offense as a whole. I feel that it cost us at Wisky. We get a team on its heels and then we let them regroup. We got the ball down to the 3 at Camp Randall and took the whole play clock to run an option. Not necessarily a hurry up offense, but just getting things in order while a play is ongoing to help the offense stay in a rhythm.
Can't complain about a win but some of this stuff could lose us the game next week.
Would give the team a D - in the first half. B in the second half. Luckily State Penn sucks too.
Go Bucks.

Now, now, PSU fans would never make fun of a freshman QB looking sad after losing a game, right? Let's make sure we show them just as much respect as they would show us in that situation.

Just came back from a housewarming party, filled with State Penn fans. Reading through this thread right now. Fun to read after the fact. I was not a happy camper at he half. Didn't look like we had an answer for either offense or defense. At least the special teams looked OK.
Although I'd rather dominate every game from start to finish, there is something special about a come from behind win. The Torrence pick-six was a thing of beauty. Loved seeing McGloin get humbled. Cocky fucker. Very satisfying win, even better in "enemy" territory :)
Going back to reading through the thread now.
Go Buckeyes

Just got back home (not from the game :( ) and watched the highlights.
Did everyone BUT Chekwa get an INT? and Pick-6s no less...
Love the D stepping up when it mattered.

I wish I had been in the same room with the Penn St fans I know for this game. The first half would have sucked, but they would have been crying by the end of the game. It hurts so much more when you think you have a chance.

Everything was dead the first half. The atmosphere and quality of football just plain sucked. Pathetic. I was never worried about losing the game but I knew that they needed a major attitude adjustment to come back and win it. Couldn't be happier about the second half.

Absolutely, Deety. Like the Rose Bowl when Oregon came back in the 3d quarter and took the lead 17-16... They didn't score again after that and we kept our cool.
I agree that Boom is the Player of the Game, but I think the play of the game might have been Torrence's pick 6 --- it was, okay, I'm not going to give you 12 yards anymore... McGloin realized that he wasn't going to be able to do the snap, throw... and he started losing his cool.
side note: I know some State Penn fans and they are loyal to Joe Pa like crazy, but man they must know it's time to get that gargoyle off the field.
Go Bucks!

I can respect a good player, but McGroin was just way too cocky. When he stared over to the the OSU sideline after that TD pass, I knew he was in for it.
The double pick six couldn't have happened to a nicer guy. He should look forward to the next few years on the bench. No way he beats out Bolden another offseason in the program.
Love that he got benched. I'm sure his girl won't even blow him tonight. He'll have to wack it.

Can Gameday do a segment next week where Herbie and McGroin sit down with each other and they talk about how Herbie was right about him in the first place?
