I dont think they will fire him mid-season, but they need to...The issue is who will take over

Let somebody be the interim. Then go get a young OC that's hungry. Hell...where did Oregon find their guy? A really good Div 2/ FCS type guy that deserves a big time school. Young and upcoming.
 
Every Alum. Every booster. Every former player.
They all need to be calling or texting me emailing the AD and demand Franklin resign or be fired.

Feel bad for Allen and Singleton and any others that stuck around for a shot at a natty and got this sh-- sammich for their loyalty.

I’d think he would be wise to stay in school and learn. I think he is pulling in 8million as is.

Miami just scored, nice toss and run.

21 - 3 over Florida

Man, my UW Cowboys suck. It's just bad.
 
This is the worst loss in Penn State history.

DC Jim Knowles scheme was fine. He adjusted throughout the game, brought blitzes, had a spy. The problem was not scheme, it was the players missing tackles and being out of position over and over. LB Tony Rojas was out and his backup Dom Deluca could not have played worse. His missed his run fits all game.

Were the defensive players jetlagged, overconfident, hangover from Oregon? I have no idea but it was crazy to watch

Last year Penn State had 2 erasers. Abdul Carter on defense and Tyler Warren on offense. They covered up a ton of sins.

OC Andy Kotalnicki needs to go. They should do that tomorrow. Yeah, they scored some points, but UCLA is a terrible defense and yet again, the WRs were not getting open. The best pass plays were Allar tucking and running. The teams all have film on Kotalnicki and nobody is fooled. Villanova wasn't fooled.

Penn State never does anything smart. UCLA, with an interim staff, saw PSU's weakness on kickoffs and got the easiest onside kick i've ever seen. They got penn state offsides twice simply by having Nico do a double clap for the snap. Then there was the final punt. Penn State didn't rush anybody and the UCLA punter was able to just hang out for like 5 seconds in the endzone before the intentional safety.

Final drive. Need to get at least to midfield to throw a Hail Mary. First play is a 1 yard pass to the RB. I literally laughed out loud.

Did RB Kaytron Allen bang Franklin's wife or something? They insist on giving Singleton more carries. For the season, Kaytron is at 7.1 per carry and Singleton is 3.8. In this game they gave Singleton 11 carries for 39 yards 3.5 avg. Kaytron had just 8 carries for 50 yards 6.3 avg and 2 TDs.

On the biggest play of the game, the 4th and 2 with seconds to go inside the 10, Kaytron is on the bench. Then they call a QB run? Unbelievable.

It would cost Penn State $56 million to fire Franklin so it's not happening. That number goes down each season. He'll be back at least for next year.


This loss could be good in the long run. They lost to Oregon but took it to OT, so they could tell themselves they're close and just need a few breaks to get over the top. With this debacle, it should force change. Use the rest of the season to figure out the new direction for next season.

They can start by getting some DTs that are 300 lbs. They've been getting pushed around up the middle for years.

Maybe they can play Texas in the who gives a **** bowl.
 
game on the line, your QB is playing a great game, and this is the play you call, with your best RB on the bench
