Run The Gol' Dang Ball
This seems fixable. However, Moore could have a mental hang-up after being hit too much. If he can't get past it then they should get Novosad ready. Iowa's defense is going to test his mettle in a few weeks. He can count on that.

Time for Stein to Move up to the Box
I thought that was Limar who took that hit.

James Franklin is Out at Penn State
Every single one of these articles have the same five or six names and they are all underwhelming except for Cignetti. It’s funny how nobody mentions any young coordinators as a possible replacement. Some of the better coaches in the nation came from coordinated jobs. Day, Kirby, Lanning, Freeman, Dilly et al. I think that Penn State will hire a head coach from another P4 school because that’s what Penn State does. However, there are some good coordinators out there that will end up being great head coaches. Stein comes to mind, but there are many more. I would expect Hartline, Patricia, Neuheisel and Schumann to be P4 head coaches at some point.

Whoa! Did You Hear That Massive THUD Out There?
The 2007 and 2012 NYG, 2023 Texas Rangers, 2014 UConn Huskies, 1986 Villanova Wildcats and 1983 NC State Wolfpack would all agree. I should also add that a football team with a OK offense and a great defense always has a chance. The 1986 Penn State Nittany Lions, the 2000 Oklahoma Sooners, and 2002 Buckeyes will vouch for this take.

A Loss Two Years In The Making
I had the same feeling which is why I predicted an Indiana victory in the prediction contest. Too much talk about the winning streak at Autzen and Indiana’s losing against top ten teams. This is a team with very few returning starters who just came off an emotionally taxing win in Pennsylvania. The difficulty they experienced on Saturday didn’t surprise me. It somewhat reminded me of Oregon’s response to beating a highly ranked Michigan State team in 2014. They barely beat a bad WSU team the next week in Pullman and lost to Arizona at home two weeks later after a bye. That team responded and never lost again until the national championship game. I think we have the coaching staff to help keep these players pointed in the right direction.

Something tells me UCLA is going to surprise some teams. USC is one that comes to mind.

I trust this coaching staff. Next week’s performance will be key. Get a solid win and they can build from there. Losing a top 10 matchup is much better now than during the playoffs.

Post-Game Thoughts: Will Oregon Grow From This?
Lanning has sent more O-Linemen to the NFL than Belotti, Chip and Mario. Mario may have recruited some guys, but DL and his staff developed them.

Post-Game Thoughts: Will Oregon Grow From This?
I just found out that Allar is done for the year. He took a lot of abuse from his own fan base. Now they get to see what life is like without him.

Post-Game Thoughts: Will Oregon Grow From This?
We can gripe about this and that for the rest of the evening, but the simple fact is that Indiana was the better football team today. Just like we were the better football team 365 days (give or take a few hours) ago against Ohio State.

Post-Game Thoughts: Will Oregon Grow From This?
I’m not worried. As crazy as it sounds, I don’t think we’ll turn into Penn State. The reason? Dan Lanning. Will he take OBD to the playoffs this season? I don’t know, but he won’t allow us to suck.

Groan...The Prediction Contest Winner is...
I don’t like that I won, but there was too much bad karma on social media. Everybody was talking about how Indiana has never beaten a top 10 team.

We’re on to Rutgers. If that’s a close game then we know what kind of team this is. It’s not a bad thing. This team is young. Just don’t turn into Penn State. They have already quit on their coach (unlike Ohio State from last season).
