The score was closer than the game was. BC should have lost that one by 50. No doubt. Purdue left a lot of points on the board and went extremely conservative in the second half.

They dominated from the get go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. We all enjoyed Purdue’s 0-3 start, but they are better than that record and better than us most likely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BGleas Posted September 30, 2018 Report Share Posted September 30, 2018 So, I’m a PSU football fan. I grew up in PA and Indiana. Not sure who all watched the PSU-OSU game, James Franklin reminds me of a slightly better (he’s a better recruiter) football version of Tom Crean. He’s basically a cheerleader during the games. Then, on 4th and 5 a minute left with a Heisman candidate QB who’s carried you all game, you run the ball up the middle with a RB who has negative yards in the game. Literally the worst playcall I’ve ever seen in FB. If I was McSorely I would be be going ballistic in the locker room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel horrible for Trace McSorely. In a situation like that you want the ball in your best players hands, and for PSU McSorely is by far, and it’s not even close, their best player. Taking the ball out of his hands is pathetic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I sound like a broken record, but you have a 3-year starting senior QB, who is a heisman candidate, and has willed your team to wins, and has carried them in this game, and you run the ball up the middle, which hasn’t worked all game, on 4th and 5!?!? Just awful. Franklin really does remind me of Crean. He’s a better/more consistent recruiter, but he’s also basically a cheerleader on the sidelines.

BTW, Nebraska amassed 582 total yards and 30 first downs against the Boilers. They lost the game simply due to penalties and poor red zone defense.

The old adage(which I firmly believe in) is to kick them when they are down! I bet a lot of their former conference foes would relish the opportunity to waltz into Lincoln and rip the husks right off those ears of corn.

The thing that pains me the most is that Ohio St and Urban benefit the most from that play call. I was staring at the tv going wtf is that play call?

Leathernecks Posted October 1, 2018 Report Share Posted October 1, 2018 Even if the first guy through doesn't get him, there were 3 other defenders right there to stop him well before he got 5 yards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
