Not sure how much it changed things, but Urb in his presser said JT was injured. Sounds like a lot of play calling was them trying to work around the situation.

True, but I would argue a large part of that is due to our playcalling in the first half.

When your current QB is the backup and his backup cannot complete a forward pass, I would think we at least TRY and keep him out of harms way.

I hope Joey doesn't sue for using his likeness.

Why did Ped State cross the road?

To molest a child on the other side, but a caped crusader named Bosaman foiled their evil plan!!!

Hi. Just dropped by to see what ORD's plans were for trolling all of the PSU sites with a rally to restore this win, since the officials gave OSU 10 points.

I'll hang up and listen.

The good news is that we can diagnose and fix whatever was giving JT fits in the passing game before the trip to MSU.

Can we? I think it's a case of the-defense-not-being-kent-st-cincinnati-rutgers-or-maryland-level-of-shitty-itis.

WTF, I missed this play:

Trying to help him keep balance, I assume. Happened multiple times on the "Ole" blocks.

Franklin after the game: "I'd love to come in here and tell you how I really think, but that would not be appropriate, about some other things that went on..."

He seems about to cry.

Awe feeling like a victim, or whatever it is they call it.

I'm willing to buy into the fact that JT's knee injury affected the play-calling once PSU's defense began to bear down.

The playbook shrunk SIGNIFICANTLY late against VA Tech and in the second half here.

We can only make assumptions as to why.

The difference is... this time JT made the plays he needed to make to win.

Regardless of how good this team really is stacked up against everyone else nationally, we're now 6-1 and undefeated in B1G play. Our starting QB has 7 starts under his belt (likewise with the O-Line) and M*ch*g*n still sucks. That's a lot of positive and I'll ride what little wave this W brings until we play again.

The officiating was terrible all the way around for both sides so bitching about it is just stupid. Yes it was not caught by Vonn Bell but that didn't result in 7 they still could have stopped us. What about all our personal fouls we had?

Side Note Reeves absolutely crushed someone today... what a pop and for that matter our defense really was hitting today

I don't really blame him. That pick call, the random use of his last TO. That whole officiating team should be sent to the ACC
