Don’t feel bad. As an Indiana fan, I’m still mad about the 1979 Indiana Michigan game when ball carrier Lawrence Reid intentionally and literally THREW THE BALL OUT OF BOUNDS to stop the clock from running out with less than 5 seconds in the game, and then Anthony Carter caught the game-winning bomb on the next and last play. 😒
@@WeLiveForSaturday To be fair, the rules were somewhat ambiguous on this point at the time, and the NCAA clarified/changed the rule the following offseason. You can Google it. The TD call by the Michigan announcer is one of the greatest of all time.
37:25 To me, a blowout is 40 points. We won by 31. But also, it very easily could have been 21-17, MSU with 3 minutes left in the first half had they not fumbled 2 great drives away. That’s where more of the frustration and lack of confidence comes from on my part.
@@WeLiveForSaturday it’s also very possible we were looking ahead to the Iowa, Oregon, Nebraska, Penn State stretch and didn’t really focus in until the 2nd half. Although, Day has always been a 2nd half coach, so I guess we’ll see this weekend.
Let's be honest about that bad call (and it was bad): Minnsota had TWO punishable offenses on that onside kick. To not mention that seems somewhat disingenuous. If they had reviewed, that would've been caught.
Not really sure what your point ab the illinois game is, even with poor execution in the redzone, PSU should have scored an easy 9 points from field goals, bit clearly the Penn state kicker is very bad. You cant blame kotelnicki for 400+ yards on a bigten team where a special teams player is most at fault.
I hear you. But to be frank, after hiring OC Andy Kotelnicki and with the way Penn State recruits they should be putting up 500+ yards of offense and 35 points weekly. In their first big game under Kotelnicki, the offense was good, but not great. You hired Kotelnicki to raise the bar. So I’m holding Penn State to a higher standard than other teams. You don’t fire your OC and hire Kotelnicki unless you’re expecting to do better in these big games.

That sounds awful! Ugh I hate terrible officiating.

Sure. Ohio State wasnt its sharpest against Sparty. I expect them to display more focus against better opponents.

@@maxgeittmann7I absolutely think Ohio State got caught looking ahead. They will play better against more challenging competition.
IU has been cheated so many times due to terrible officiating you have my sympathy especially against Michigan.
Appreciate it, Robert! Was an absolutely inexcusable call.
In 1967 Indiana started 8-0 before losing to Minnesota
Oh man. My information was wrong then. Thanks for the correction!

I’m just not seeing the penalties that allegedly should have been called against Minnesota. Maybe that makes me a blind homer, but I don’t see it.
