PSU is fine. We're legit on both sides of the ball we need our QB to not throw three fucking picks in the motherfucking first fucking fuck fuck first half God fucking damn hell fuck me. 

Nah i'm watching ya'll push their defense around despite your QB playing so bad.  And their offense looks bad.  

Penn state is getting beat in the next round if they don't improve a LOT.

The streets are saying SMU’s backup is in the portal so they have no option other than Jennings?

Penn State and SMU have more than a few things in common ahead of their first round College Football Playoff matchup on Saturday. Each is in the 12-team field for the first time. Both have a top-20 offense and a top-30 defense. They each have a backup quarterback in the transfer portal, too.

SMU and Penn State backup QBs are both in the portal, but only one is available for the CFP; ‘it’s huge,’ Mustangs’ coach says

But, there is one major difference about that: Mustang Preston Stone is sticking with the team for the duration of its postseason run. Nittany Lion Beau Pribula is not. It’s true that if either team must turn to their No. 2 option under center, for any reason, their chances of winning will be greatly impacted. But, while this weekend’s home team has an advantage in many areas, this will not be one of them.

“Yeah, I mean, it’s huge,” Mustangs coach Rhett Lashlee said Tuesday. “You keep some continuity. As we all know, Preston’s played a lot of football, won a lot of games. That’s been a big deal for us all year. You know, even at Louisville, when he went in and one play throws a touchdown pass. So, you know, we do have Keldric Luster, who we have a lot of belief in. I mean, we think Keldric’s more than capable of going in the game and playing winning football right now, and we expect that to be the case next year as well.

“But to have the experience that Preston brings is definitely a positive for us in the event that we have to turn to our second guy. Just because, you know, this environment and this stage that we’re getting to play on is not your week two home game stage. So, having that experience is definitely a plus for us.”
