Well that was fun.

Nice chill weekend watching everybody beat each other up this weekend while the horns get healthy. Was Oregon or Alabamas win more impressive ? Is Dante Moore the new Heisman front runner? Ty Simpson? Why does Kirby throw out his entire coaching philosophy when Alabama is on the opposite sideline ? Is James Franklin allergic to winning big games ? Is Mike elko gonna fight the entire media room the next time he squeaks out a win vs a bad team? Feel like we got more questions than answers after yesterday

Penn St is in an awkward position with Franklin. He’s built a top tier program so you can’t fire him, but it looks like he’ll never get over the hump. So do fans just accept high level mediocrity?

Dante Moore is very good 

 

Coaches not taking the points is now my forever pet peeve in football. F the analytics. The sport needs coaches to start coaching more with game management sense again. It's really bad right now.

I’ve seen some clips on fans in the stands last night chanting “fire franklin”. Last night was his opportunity to prove everybody wrong. A white out at night. A first year starter to gameplan against. He had everything on the line and while he fought back down 17-3, it’s still the same result . If he doesn’t beat Ohio st this season I think the fanbase turns on him completely.  You see how our fanbase gets angry thinking about sarks record against elite coaches, Penn state fans have been going through that for YEARS

That 4th down play call from Bobo was almost as bad as the toss sweep sark called on the goal line vs Ohio state. It had no chance from the time the ball was snapped. But then again, a gamble on 4th down is what ole miss did to put LSU away.

Elko is one Big Mac and one reporter question from a massive coronary lol

 Was Oregon or Alabamas win more impressive ?  Bama beating UGA in Athens >>> OSU/ORE/Michigan (any highly ranked team) beating PSU at State College

Is Dante Moore the new Heisman front runner?  YES

Ty Simpson?  YES (also Diego Pavia)

Why does Kirby throw out his entire coaching philosophy when Alabama is on the opposite sideline ?  Bama and OSU are the only teams to consistently recruit at Georgia's level the past 5 years so he doesn't have his usual physical edge?  (dunno)  Something freaky scary about 6'7" 360 lb OT Kadyn Proctor plowing thru guys on that screen pass 

Is James Franklin allergic to winning big games ?  YES

Is Mike elko gonna fight the entire media room the next time he squeaks out a win vs a bad team?  No, he'll just go full Brian Kelly and tongue lash them into submission

Feel like we got more questions than answers after yesterday.  Great day of football, amirite?

Hey guys.  I'm not a member yet, but to throw it out there, I'm disturbed by the non-targeting call on Penn St vs Oregon.  It was vicious, almost assault like.  I thought "helmet to helmet" contact was prohibited???   The ball carrier head was rocked back.  How he got up, I don't know.   Big 10 officials ought to be called out.  In the NFL, SEC it would have been called.  Would parents want to have their sons to be hit like that????  I'm a retired "ole school coach".  But, disturbing!!

I completely agree.  All the analytics in the world can’t account for specific game management context.  Kirby not taking the FG to tie the game was dumb (and the play call to Cash Jones was even dumber).

I’d like to see Sark take your advice above.

Sounds like a conversation we may have in a few years

Could not agree more. Game sense seems to be a dying trait that no coach tends to have anymore.
