30Duck Author Moderator No. 7 Share Posted yesterday at 05:48 PM Penn State goes for it on 4th & 13 from SMU's 29 yard line. Incomplete pass. It would have been a long FG, especially in the weather conditions, at least Franklin didn't punt. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not going to lie...it makes me even more nervous about Oregon's defense (or lack thereof).

When you have the No. 1 next to your name you get everyone's best shot. Penn State has settled back into playing more mediocre because they are heavily favored. Not saying we shouldn't be worried about the Oregon defense but Penn State isn't playing the same way they did against us. Also... They are playing in the cold and not a warm indoor stadium. It's a different environment. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ktmguy2018 No. 26 Share Posted yesterday at 06:54 PM Can already hear the SEC homers: "Yeah, well Penn State got to play SMU. That's the easy path" If OBD get this done this year, absolutely NO excuses for how they did it. They will have punched the top teams in the mouth, not gotten a cakewalk. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a different environment. So must have Boise State (34 points given up) and Ohio State’s (31 points given up) offenses. Guess we’d better be ready for Tennessee/Ohio State, Texas and Georgia to be “playing lights out” on offense too.

No more Purdues, UCLAs, Michigan teams remaining on the schedule… Boise State also caught us at the right/wrong time. Our offensive line came together in the second half and our defense needed to do a lot of heavy lifting for the offense. Remember those two bad fumbles and how the offense couldn't move the ball to save their lives? It was bad... The defense was on the field for way too long because the offense wasn't on the field at all. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
EastBayDuckDad Moderator No. 34 Share Posted yesterday at 08:48 PM Putting up the Christmas tree while watching SMU v PSU, so I'm not really being distracted much. PSU and Abdul Carter have done to SMU what they could only dream about doing to Oregon in the B1G CG. The Mustang qb has made more bad decisions than Custer at Little Bighorn, the O-line has more holes than a Swiss cheese sandwich and I've yet to see anything resembling presnap motion or misdirection. This game almost, but not quite makes me think Bama and DeBoer should have been in the CFP. Almost. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ktmguy2018 No. 35 Share Posted yesterday at 08:58 PM Be interested to see how Clemson does against Texas because the ACC isn't looking very strong right now. It felt like an effort of good faith for the playoff committee to put SMU in there and now I'm wondering what they think about that decision. Committee: "Well, SMU passed the eye test" Also Committee: 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
