PSU 02-LOL

Submitted by Ziff72 on

Watching the 02 PSU game on BTN.  They spent 3 or 4 interviews on the T. Hunt catch on the sideline and how it cost them the game blah blah blah and they totally gloss over B. Johnsons 3rd down um I guess I'll call it a volleyball dig that they called a catch to keep the drive alive.  If not for that  PSU punts to us and we probably get great field position and end the game.

That was so far from a catch for Johnson I couldn't believe the play by play guy was trying to sell the color guy.  Classic.   I wonder how Calvin Johnson feels about that catch?   

Well I see where the PSU fanbase gets their whiny nature the coaches still can't let it go and they are wrong.

Was watching and found the coach interviews hilarious. Yes, the sideline no catch was a bad call, but had the refs not blown the previous call, would have never happened. Cry me a river, PSU.

Shhh!  We aren't supposed to remember that PSU was rewarded a bogus first down on 3rd and long with Bryant Johnson's "catch" that kept that drive alive.  And we also aren't supposed to remember that a PSU defender mugged Braylon Edwards on our 3rd TD drive and never got penalized for pass interference.  And we also aren't supposed to remember that PSU didn't get a delay of game penalty on that 20 yard run in overtime despite the fact Zach Mills hiked the ball 3 seconds after the clock ran out.

Poor Penn State.  Michigan gets all the breaks.

My brother was a student at UM and got me a ticket, so I came up for the game. First of all, that was one of the best games I've ever been too.  Second of all, that game probably sealed the deal on me going to UM instead of GT for college.  So thanks UM football for helping me not make the worst decision I could have ever made.
