The revenge tour continues

That qb just pulled a Jamie’s Winston

True but they really do miss Barkley.

He was a huge part of their offense.

That pick 6 had zero to do with Barkley being gone.

Staff is bad, and players they have left are not doing what that staff is supposed to be teaching them to do.

 

[Lions=TeHsUcKs]

I think this game could be over now.

That will stand.

 

[WizardHawk]

This guy. I love this guy.

Michigan could be like Clemson if they had just an above average offense. But the playcalling is mostly mediocre.

 

[Lions=TeHsUcKs]

Maybe the offense finally opens up with McCaffrey getting garbage time.

True, but that QB isn’t even in the game if Barkley were on the PSU roster. They might not be winning, but Barkley would likely have gotten them more than zero points in the first three quarters.

PSU decides to try and get McSorely killed.

Entirely misses the point.

Barkley is gone. He isn't there. The rest of those kids are. That staff still has to do their f'n jobs this year with that roster.

You don't get a free pass because really talented kids graduate.

No one is suggesting they should win at the same level. I'm saying their staff is not putting the kids they do have in the position to make plays. They are not making adjustments in game the way they should.

I think they know with our defense they can just bang between the tackles and try to run the clock.

That’s what happens when you lose such a dynamic player that takes up so much of your offense. Ask Auburn about that the year after Cam left. Or Louisville this year.

The rest of the team doesn’t develop when you rely so much on one guy.

 

[Lions=TeHsUcKs]

What a weak ass fucking call.

What a weak ass fucking call.

That's why you never skip glute day.

TOUCHDOWN MICHIGAN!

 

[Winged_Wheel88]

This game was threatening to explode into a blowout since the first 3-4 possessions. It took awhile, but we're there now.

You KNOW UM is going to throw another deep ball to run up the score for what PSU did last year.
