Double doucheI hope they lose. McSorely is a douche. So is Franklin.
Double douches tied 10 at the half. Go Appalachian State.Double douche
Double douche
That final App State td, while great, definitely left too much time on the clock, but hard to fault a kid for a great second effort.What a finish. Bummer though, really wanted to see Franklin go down. PSU really should drop ranking for this.

Franklin, on the other hand....From what I've seen of McSorley over the past couple of years, I can't agree with your description.
Say what you want, but I saw two teams playing at an extremely high level out there, higher than the level of our game vs. Purdue (which I thought was quite good). I would not wanted to have played App St. Thursday....
I'd kill to have one or two of the playmakers App State had.Say what you want, but I saw two teams playing at an extremely high level out there, higher than the level of our game vs. Purdue (which I thought was quite good). I would not wanted to have played App St. Thursday....
Yes. I wouldn't be surprised if the Penn State defense let him score. Had the App State rb slid at the four yard line, they could have Forced Penn State to burn their time outs while running off a lot of the clock. Quarterbacks are coached to slide all the time. I hope Fitz shows this play to discuss why getting a quick touch down with two minutes to go isn't as good as running time off the clock in a tight game.That final App State td, while great, definitely left too much time on the clock, but hard to fault a kid for a great second effort.
I think they have a formula for intense preparation for these opening games that starts as soon as their prior season ends. I doubt that the PSU and UM players gave them much thought until game week.I hope Ohio State doesn’t ever schedule App State. Yes, I’m scared of them.
Two reasons to cheer for Pitt. Go Panthers.Penn State plays at Pitt next weekend. Should be fun to watch, as Pitt's new d-coordinator is former NU coach Randy Bates.

Good point about scoring, you never know what’ll happen.Hey, you've gotta score when you can score. What if the kid had gone down and then they'd fumbled or thrown an INT on the next play? I just think Penn State depth finally won out. The App State d-line looked gassed on the last drive in regulation and the one in overtime.
They beat the crap out of Toledo in the bowl, who was arguably a top 5 G5 team.I hope Ohio State doesn’t ever schedule App State. Yes, I’m scared of them.

Yeah, I'll definitely be cheering for Randy. He's a good guy.Two reasons to cheer for Pitt. Go Panthers.
The kickoff return following the TD was big, not sure if that was a planned play or the kid did it on his own. App State had a body on him around the 10 yard line but he broke that and got another 40 yards or so, different game if they pin them at the 10 or the kid took the touch back,Hey, you've gotta score when you can score.

Are you kidding?I don't see Franklin doing a lot of things any worse than most P5 coaches, and I think he looks pretty good compared to what's going on with OSU and Maryland this year. But I know a lot of people disagree — hey, it makes the world go 'round.
Yes. Franklin looks good compared to OSU and Maryland. It is a sad state if that is now our definition of character and class.I don't see Franklin doing a lot of things any worse than most P5 coaches, and I think he looks pretty good compared to what's going on with OSU and Maryland this year. But I know a lot of people disagree — hey, it makes the world go 'round.
I make my home in Nashville and that case was thoroughly reported. Franklin made no effort to cover anything up or to slow or impede the full reporting of the crime. Four of his players did something disgustingly wrong. None of the players had any such problems in their backgrounds and their high school coaches were stunned.Are you kidding?
Four players raped a girl under his watch at Vandy, and when passing out the sentences the judge called it something along the lines of “the saddest criminal case he’s overseen in his career”.
I bet that case is just the tip of the iceberg under that sketchbag.

I bet that case is just the tip of the iceberg under that sketchbag. My guess: he’ll jump to the NFL if the NCAA comes sniffing and starts to find violations on his watch, and Ped State will somehow avoid the death penalty again.
Were they holding up "bring back Joe" signs?The shots of the Penn State fans are priceless.
Not unlike the “IU Sucks” chant at Purdue on Thursday, Pitt fans have been known to start a random “P-E-N-N-S-T Sucks” (say it quickly, staccato 8th notes) when the mood strikes.Penn State plays at Pitt next weekend. Should be fun to watch, as Pitt's new d-coordinator is former NU coach Randy Bates.
