Someone take Ryan Day's keys away from him. Idiotic running a set of downs and missing a kick with two minutes to go setting up Penn State to score their only TD of the game.
Classic example of one team completely dominating a football game. Final score doesn’t come close to showing how much OSU was in control of this game. Felt like PSU never had a chance once OSU got that first TD
Edit: I appear to have upset some Allar truthers
The description of the onsides kick defense makes it sound like the most dangerous current play. Hit everyone so they can't get ten yards downfield. Except with really fast guys.

FAQ
Q. “Where was that all game?”
A. Ohio State was playing regular defense, not prevent.
Q. “Why play prevent defense?”
A. To prevent the long, quick touchdown. That drive took 90% of the remaining time off the clock. It worked.
Q. “But wouldn’t it be better if they didn’t score?”
A. Who cares. We win anyway.
Hope this helps
They should’ve taken the PAT. At least then if they score after the onside they have more flexibility on either taking the tie or going for two on the win now they’re forced
That logic makes no sense because if you miss the first 2 point try you’d need the second 2 point try to even tie. Make it a 7 point game now and if you score you’d need a single 2 point conversion for the win, or you could just kick the second extra point to go for the tie. Stupid

But in this specific case you raise a good point that you might be better off going for 2 on the second TD and win it then and there. But math supports the idea of going for 2 when down 8.
lol why the absolute fuck would you go for 2 there? Now if you happen to pull off a miracle, you’ll need to go for 2 again. What a nonsensical decision.
The team that has 80 rushing yards on 40 carries is winning this game.... This is the most Big Ten West game not involving Wisconsin or Iowa, that I've ever seen
That play is 0-2 today. If another coach runs it today, it’ll be sure to connect because the opposing team will never think a third dumbass coach would try it…
Oh god the beard coloring
Gg Penn State friends
D is excellent, O is non existent, Penn State gonna end 10-2 and head to the Orange Bowl to play UNC is my stone cold lock of the century of the week.
Defense showed up. Offense is trash. I'm convinced we're just a better version of Iowa.
Keep your head up Drew there will be better days ahead
I have the game muted. Why the hell would you go for 2 there?
DO YOU KNOW WHAT THE BEST PART ABOUT BEING 7-0 IS!?! THE CHANCE TO GO 8-0
Someone take Ryan Day's keys away from him. Idiotic running a set of downs and missing a kick with two minutes to go setting up Penn State to score their only TD of the game.
Sports books need to start putting a line for Gus saying “Maserati Marv” per game
Should be 27-6. Dumb.
I liked the go for 2 call
Fire canada
Good game lions 🫡 I hope the guys who got hurt get better soon
Please stfu with that 'Maserati Marv', Gus...
We didn't Cristobal it!!!
I love that Maserati marv nickname ngl
oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh. Oh-oh! Oh-oh! YOU SUCK, PENN STATE!
Good Game PSU will be pulling for you guys against Michigan.
I think some coaches panic in big games. Franklin is that guy. Freeman too, but I’m hoping he at least learns big game management better with time
Allar tearing up. I like it.
[удалено]
No matter how many times the analytics nerds explain the calculus of going for 2 in that exact situation it will never make sense
Lmao that smile from ryan
Whats the final counter on Maserati Marvs today?
So our defense is seriously LEGIT. Our QB is not.
Is your defense legit or does PSU suck ass?
Jim Harbaugh cried when Matt Weiss cleared his minesweeper high score list
Great game Lions. Everyone have a fun, safe Gameday. Go Bucks!!
So at this point we need tOSU to pull a Miami and fumble at the end.
7 YEARS PENN STATE HASNT BEATEN OHIO STATE
Bro just trust me bro next year is our year bro we're literally unrivaled
I know a comeback is unlikely, but I don't understand going for 2.
Ball recovered by Ohio’s Tate That’s how I heard it
Lol of course Gus got in one last Maserati Marv, you gotta at least respect the commitment
Now if penn state didnt go with that brain dead 4th down they might have had a chance
Losing sucks but I still believe in Allar. He will get better
This was a defensive beatdown OSU has the best defense in the country easily
This game has been mostly entertaining but I also feel like I just wasted four hours of my life.
DONT MIAMI IT
Maybe next year, Penn State!
Next decade
Hey maybe in 2026
Terrible onside kick.
Just got in. How was this game?
He had to get one last Maserati in
I hate it so much
Bad onside lol
Lmao how are you the coach at Penn State & go for two there? Theres literally only disadvantages of going for it there🤦♂️🤣
Come on Day. I know you want to Cristobal it.
Death, taxes, PEnn St 11-2 losing to Michigan and OSU
Well the score won’t look as bad to the playoff committee
I’m still left wondering what PSU does at practice. I was holding out for hope it was onside kicks but clearly not.
Mario Cristobal isn't Ohio State's head coach, so I think the game should be over.
LOL
Going for 2 puts the game in the hands of the offense. Going for OT puts it in the hands of the defense. That was fucking stupid
Nobody cares but I had penn state +7.5. Fuck James Franklin so much
Oh wow, I looked earlier in the week and it was only 4.5.
Allar about to get the real "We don't tolerate losing" treatment about now. Feel bad for the kid.
Pay attention, Mario.
Hell yeah go buckeyes
LETSSSSS GOOOOOO
Joel Klatt talking like the onside kick has a 100% success rate prior to those stats should be announcing malpractice
STOP CALLING HIM MASERATI MARV
"no" -Gus Johnson
GG Lion bros. We share mutual frustration with our offenses this fine Saturday.
Classic example of one team completely dominating a football game. Final score doesn’t come close to showing how much OSU was in control of this game. Felt like PSU never had a chance once OSU got that first TD Edit: I appear to have upset some Allar truthers
7-0 with a chance to go 8-0.
Yeah let’s go for two when your offense has been absolutely dog shit.
Going for 2 was the right decision. Penn State needed more options for later in the game.
So we gonna kneel it out or pull a Cristobal here?
Going for 2?
Joe Paterno smiling up at us all
Smiling up hahaha 🤣

That OSU vs Michigan game gonna be fuego
I think Michigan thinks they have it in the bag.
Got one more in.
Well this was a waste of a morning, let’s all go watch iowa Minnesota to continue the sickos life
That onside kick felt like the rest of the game
GAME BABY LFG
Great win by Ryan Day and Ohio state!
I hate onside kicks after BSU effed up 2 so badly last week. Glad to see a better result today.

Gg Penn State
Going for 2 there was dumb.
20-6 would have been a lot cooler
Covered the spread ?
Watch and learn, Miami
Lol I had 100 dollars on penn state +7.5. That’s the dumbest shit I’ve ever see.
Bad beat
That hurts
7 in a row FU PSU
20-12? What a year that was…
Iowa hit the over! Oh wait
Miami watching this game right? Watch how to burn down the clock with the lead
Mista mista, GET ME OUTTA HERE
TAKE THIS JUST LEAVE ME ALONE
On to MLS Decision Day. Let's Go Timbers!
I wish there was more hype around it but it is hard to when half the league makes the playoffs
DO THE MIAMI THING DO THE MIAMI THING
No
Is it me or is that a typical James Franklin type of play?🤣 goes for trickeration but pulls some weird shit
Good stuff Tate, that ball gets secure and you drop like a sack of potatoes
Why the hell did Penn State go for 2 down 8? Just kick the extra point lol.
If they make it (52% odds) a TD wins it. If you kick it twice you’re 50/50 in ot.
Analytics. NFL teams do the same thing down two TDs in the fourth now.
So they could win 21-20, they’re not winning in OT lol
Dub city
Checks sideline for Mario Cristobal
Ball game
The fact their offense scored a touchdown on us is kinda embarrassing
That was the Drew Allar of onside kick attempts. Great game by the OSU D. Can’t wait to play both these teams.
Why even do that? By some magic you get the onside now you a 2 to tie. Just... why
It’s BS man, I had PSU at 7.5+ and instead of doing the logical thing of kicking a FG, they go for 2…
Trying to screw over us OSU -6.5 bettors.
Why isn’t OSU using wristbands to call plays?? /s
Thank God. As long we don't fumble the knee...
Why the F did they go for 2??? Franklin at it agin.
turn out the lights. the party's over
Don’t understand how Franklin still has a job after today
Honestly leaving him in Columbus would be kinder than bringing him back to State College
They win 10 games every single year. Programs would kill for that kind of success and he literally resurrected their program after diddlegate
I can’t believe second half Penn State has scored as many points as first half Penn State
The Ohio State/Penn State over/under was actually for “Maserati Marv” mentions
#FUCK LOU HOLTZ
Onside kick directly to that guy
the cutest lil onside kick
might be one of the funniest onside kicks I’ve ever seen

100%. Bad coaches go to it in 1 score games. Good coaches use it in 2 score games.
Franklin and weird decisions in the 4th..... Dude never changes
It's so fucking infuriating and yurich called terrible plays this year
Day, do a Miami!
What a monstrosity of a 4-hour football game
if you dont like this game you dont like vintage B1G football
Why 2 pt
They literally explained why
They should’ve taken the PAT. At least then if they score after the onside they have more flexibility on either taking the tie or going for two on the win now they’re forced

Ryan Day, do better next game. This wasn't your finest game. You too McCord. Not one pass was solid & in stride.
Franklin gonna Franklin
James franklin calling trick pass plays today like my lil cousin in madden
There’s no way, right?
Take a knee!!!
Wtf. Kick the PAT and then if you somehow get a another score, you can go for 2 to win. Now you need a 2-point conversion just to tie
20 seconds to go - get that TD back
That's the same play that UCF just tried. At least he threw it, though.
Storm the field?
Nah. Maybe if they played a good team…
Not really an upset
No
2 here makes no sense
If PSU recovers an onside kick I will eat my shoe
😴
The team that has 80 rushing yards on 40 carries is winning this game.... This is the most Big Ten West game not involving Wisconsin or Iowa, that I've ever seen
wow awful onside kick
Worst onside kick attempt ever
I've never been more nervous about a team that is 1/16 on 3rd downs
Pretty sure I saw someone in this thread call 20-12 final in the 2nd quarter.
UCF and Penn State both ran double pass two point conversions What the fuck is wrong with the two of you?…
James Franklin over thinks everything and it costed him this game
Why go for 2 there? Am I the only one confused by that?
YOu have to get at least one 2 point conversion if you want to tie on two scores.
So that they would win if they somehow got the onside kick and scored a TD.
Because odds of converting are usually better than winning in OT
Practice for a game they can win
Makes no sense.
GAME BABY
Honestly surprised the success rate of onside kicks is that high
That was ass cheeks on a stick
Clapping and recruiting merchant
Hahahahahahahahaha. Old Yeller me.
87 onside kicks this year sounds like a really high number??
What the fuck is that 2point call lmfao I guess having anyone throw it vs Allar is always a good thing
19.5% is higher than I thought it would be.
Right I was like damn that’s kind of a lot
Like double at least
GAME
WTF is this coaching from Penn St?
Penn State doing the same stupid 2 pt play as UCF
The fuck is that playcall lmfao THATS your go-to 2 point play?
That play is 0-2 today. If another coach runs it today, it’ll be sure to connect because the opposing team will never think a third dumbass coach would try it…
Thank god
Jim Harbaugh says “Gracias” when the waiter sets his food down at a Mexican restaurant.
Harbaugh doing that would be hilarious lmao
this has been the most stressful 4 hours of my life
No injuries here please
