Thread for Hippos to mock Penn State

nobody with cable gets ESPNU though

Nope.  And I could get it on DTV, but I choose not to.

It's not on Gameplan, because it's on ESPNU.

espnu games are supposed to be on gameplan just as espn 'extra' games are

aj wallace went to my girls high school...i saw him a few times last year

The only thing that will make this a good game is the free drinks I will be getting from my buddy at the bar.

Go State.

It was closer than the score, but IMO there was no doubt OSU is the better team... and Morelli.. yikes.  He stinks.

It is a little early to write off Morelli, that being said if Michael Robinson was still back there PSU probably wins the game easily.  Morelli has had a tough go of it no doubt, but he has had to play at two of the toughest places in the country in his first two starts.  I am very excited for this teams future.

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

Morelli has a strong arm and NOTHING else.  He was awful at feeling the pressure (or not feeling it when he was well-protected), he's awful running or throwing on the move, and more importantly, he couldn't hit the broad side of a barn.  He was consistenly throwing behind his receivers and just chucked up a couple of ducks.

I mean... he made maybe 4 or 5 really good throws, and that's it.

At this point I agree with you, all I am saying is that it is way too early to write him off.  Remember Robinson's start to the season last year? I know they are two totally different players, but it takes some time for a QB to settle in.

I'm not writing him off completely, but I don't predict greatness.

[ice grillin you]

im not predicting greatness either but at this stage of their respective careers robinson was much worse than morelli...so bad that he got moved to wr....just sayin....

Robinson really never ended up being a great QB at all, though.  I cringed every time he threw an out route.

Maybe not a great QB but he was a great player.  Morelli has had to play in two games in completely sloppy conditions and I didn't get to see the ND or YSU game, but to me he has shown flashes.  He definately has the tools the question is can he put it together, imo he only has to be solid his WR corps could make him look great.

He had the ability to mix in his athletic running ability.  As soon as he stopped putting the ball on the ground, he stepped up and became a player.  Morelli does not have that ability, so we'll see.

Has Austin Scott been redshirted? If not when is the limit to do so, and why hasn't he been already?

[ice grillin you]

as long as he doesnt play he can redshirt...theyve all but said they will redshirt him...he didnt even make the trip to columbus
