Seems they are starting to feel their vulnerabilities already too

We've watched TCUN routinely spin down their safeties from that pre-snap umbrella look the last 2ish seasons. Now you get a couple pre-snap checks from Penn State on typical running downs while showing a bad box count. Then absolutely nothing in terms of changing the look from the *cihigan defense.

Penn State hasn't been explosive enough all year to justify sitting both safeties back like that. So either you're incredibly patient and willing to play that game (which just makes this a giant coincidence) or you're already seeing a lack of coaching adjustments sans cheating.

Part of me thinks Penn St is testing the waters too... what was cheating and what wasn't. And they figured some things out on that drive.

This is another aspect that makes it difficult to play them w/o Stalions. You have to throw out most of their tape; this is basically a different team now
