When you have to face an offense as high powered as Memphis, that's often the strategy you have to use. Otherwise, they will EXHAUST your defense trying to lock them down. To be honest, you can slow the Hurry Up offense down, but you can't really FULLY stop it.

[@leonandrews7180]

I am from Memphis and sort of figured about this score. Memphis has a good offense but not much of a defense. I sort of figured Penn State would kill Memphis, but Memphis kept up for awhile. Memphis has really stepped up the last few years and its really amazing. Has had two excellent coaches come and go and hopefully the team will become sort of a training ground for hungry and smart young coaches to come in the future. 12-2 and be in the Cotton Bowl is really amazing, and Memphis played well considering the stronger opponent.

[@AltoonaYourPiano]

Penn State fan here, Memphis played an impressive game. You were the only team all year to score more than 31 points on us (and Minnesota was the only other one to score more than 28 on us), to put up that many on such a defense is an impressive feat. Also, I think this game showed why the AAC used to be a BCS conference when it was the Big East, they can play with anybody including the Alabama and Clemson type teams.

[@alienmcqueen]

Nittany Lions Tight end killed it!

[@smeatwich]

Fun game! Memphis fans should be proud of their offense this season. It certainly showed today. My Nittany Lions had their hands full for most of the game, but I'm proud of the offense for their will to pound the rock and the defense for doing enough to limit an explosive Memphis team to mostly field goals. Perfect performance? No, not at all, but enough for today and a good note to finish the season on. I know many PSU fans were hoping for the Rose Bowl, but this was a nice win in a great bowl over a respectable opponent. I'm thankful for that and looking forward to Firemoose and company trucking more defenders next year. WE ARE!

[@andremiller4863]

we shot ourselves in the foot on offense buddy...and gave you guys two opportunities at very short fields...the INTS were also bad decisions and not great plays by Penn...we could have easily made this a different ending but we beat ourselves...

[@smeatwich]

@@andremiller4863 Tell yourself whatever you need to buddy. Funny thing about that argument is it works both ways: Maybe PSU shot itself in the foot on defense by allowing so so many wide open receivers downfield--those 479 pass yards were a gift, not good plays by Memphis, so the different ending should've been 4 or 5 scores lead instead of 2. Of course in reality both teams made big mistakes and big plays alike. I didn't see any of those kids yesterday trying to give anything away. With near 400 yards on the ground mostly between the tackles, PSU offense didn't need many short fields to score points, and the D while porous through the air as has been the case most of the season, did enough to force 6 kicks on 4th downs and yes took the ball away a few times and even scored once because of a huge play by Parsons. Give credit where due. By the way, Penn is an FCS school in Philly who didn't play yesterday.

[@yboywonder]

WOW! Memphis gave them all they could handle!

[@kyleberryhill7627]

Man that Memphis team was STACKED looking back at it 5 years later. 3 NFL RB’s, Patrick Taylor, Antonio Gibson, Kenneth Gainwell. An NFL WR, Calvin Austin. An NFL OL, Dylan Parham. An NFL LB, JJ Russell. An NFL DB, Chris Claybrooks. And an NFL K in Riley Patterson. Pretty good for a group of 5 school.

[@stevejohnson2108]

Ok I will admit it. I as dismissing Memphis, but after that performance I have to say bravo to the kids. They played their rear ends off. But like I have posted many times PSU has way too much talent for them to lose. And finally Franklin got it thru this head to run the damn ball, something he didn't do enough with Minnesota or OSU (especially before Clifford left the game). PSU is LOADED at RB and that OL is build to run the ball not pass protect (you saw how Memphis was getting to Clifford often?). If the new OC sticks to this formula next year PSU will be contending book it. Still congrats to Memphis if their QB stays they will once again be a very good team.

To be real, what Memphis need for next year is a Defensive Coordinator who's an expert in nickel-based defenses, primarily the classic 4-2-5, the 3-3-5(which Memphis innovated under Joe Lee Dunn), and the relatively recent 1-5-5. Other than that, Memphis had a great season.

That Memphis offense had some pros… Kenneth Gainwell- Philadelphia Calvin Austin Pittsburgh Antonio Gibson- Washington Patrick Taylor- Green Bay Riley Patterson- Jacksonville It was no fluke that squad could hang with Penn State.

[@colten53]

Another good NY6 win for my Nittany Lions, but there are some obvious areas where they need to improve. The passing game has to get better. Some of it is the receivers dropping catchable balls, some of it is Clifford’s inconsistency. Hopefully the new OC from Minnesota should remedy that after sending Corey Davis to the NFL from Western Michigan and developing Rashod Bateman, Tyler Johnson, and Tanner Morgan at Minnesota. The secondary has to play better. I think some of that can be scheme related because Pry is very aggressive with his blitzes. However, that doesn’t excuse all the missed open field tackles. If we improve in those areas, then watch out next year. Penn State still got to 11 wins this year even with those flaws.

If Penn St is to win the B1G they need to get better DBs after that it’s simply getting Clifford more comfortable with his WRs

Giving the talent gap Memphis did good, without their head coach and defensive coach, you can tell they was well coach with 2&3 •players when penn state has 4&5• . Don’t say penn state wasn’t motivated

[@thunderbird1921]

Judging from their performance and celebration post game, Penn State was DEFINITELY motivated. Memphis put together a furious upset bid that almost won.

[@derricklanders7260]

I have a bridge to sell you if you think that we got up for this game like we do games against a top B1G opponent or other top Power 5 opponent. Did they want to win? Sure. Did they take it more lightly than they should have? Probably. They ultimately realized that Memphis came to play and that they are good...but don't think for one second that these guys were as hyped about this game as the Ohio State, Michigan, Iowa, Michigan State, Wisconsin games! It doesn't take away anything from Memphis's efforts or talents, but let'skeep it real.

@@derricklanders7260 I dunno, the Cotton Bowl is a pretty big deal. I'd be up for the game no matter who I was playing.

[@stevejohnson2108]

@@derricklanders7260 I would say in the first half of the game you are probably right but in the 2nd half they knew they were in a dogfight and better step up. As a PSU fan this was very encouraging to see because last year in the Citrus bowl they didn't. I think they also realized what an opportunity they blew loosing to Minnesota, because most likely they would have been in the playoffs.

[@ericsutton9853]

Derrick Landers I would agree that they wasn’t jack for this game like Ohio st game, but they did realize they didn’t want to get embarrassed

[@nonyabuissness1114]

I was there that day. Like I was at the cotton bowl I was in Dallas at AT&T stadium

[@johngucciball3751]

Penn States DBs r getting destroyed by Memphis WRs now....ik Memphis was really good this year but Penn St seriously needs to get a good DB coach or they won’t win the B1G for a long time

[@NCA_Azzy]

We only have one solid DB. John Reed. Rest are basically newbs.

[@johngucciball3751]

Wonder why Franklin can’t recruit good ones

[@NCA_Azzy]

@@johngucciball3751 Was focused on replacing the offense. Like Barkley and McSorley's back up who transferred out.. Godwin, Gesicky, yada yada.

[@ericlei7056]

Agreed, they cannot cover anybody for the whole year! The other part need to be improved is the offensive line.

This commentator is dope😂

13:17 omg he took out his own player

[@thomasschuldaski9968]

Wow, good eye, I had to watch over and over to see the psu player sandwich his own guy, dammm!

[@carterwebster2913]

People are acting like Memphis was a joke team even though they should’ve been 13-0 and had one of the best offenses in their conference

[@Dwdrummer1995]

4:56 lol at that block!

[@thomasschuldaski9968]

Good eye!! Yowww, that was on #11 Micah Parsons, get the f out! He got clobbbered to say the least, he was working the one guy and the running back put the left shoulder in and down he went with a tug from the other guy, all in 2 seconds.
