Hope they go far but we had them today. Shame the victory was elusive. Here’s a few random thoughts on the game:

-just can’t get over the fact that our more highly recruited players got beat on big plays by IUs collection of players from JMU and W Kentucky - it’s really a credit to Cignetti but I just can’t understand it
-thought our last Timeout taken after the 1st down was really bad and eliminated the option to throw down the middle of the field and effectively ended the game
-good to see Singleton play so well
-just can’t allow the 2 long throws (22 and 29 yds plus a 17 yarder in there) at the end of the game. And we had some decent pressure on those plays. Is our back 7 that bad?
-our grit and toughness was better today but IU hangs there hat on gritty play. Once a hall mark of PSU football.

On the talent thing... we have been hearing a ton about the lack of talent at PSU. But, we still out talent almost every opponent on our schedule besodes two. So it's not a talent issue.

There's some big problems inside this program right now. And that's causing our talent to not perform.

The team has struggled to play a full game for years. The offense "disappears" for 10 to 15 game minutes game after game. Slow starts have become common. Disciplined and hard nosed play is not consistent. The new coach will need to fix these and other issues to be successful, IMO.
