If you want to look at strategy (vs tactics)—Penn State is running state-of-the-art 2005 offense and defense. Ole Miss is state-of-the-art 2020’s offense, and probably a bit more modern than Penn State at defense.

Penn State is getting ripped (in a bad way). Ole Miss had more yards by halftime than PSU is used to giving up in a game.


Maybe it doesn’t last, but for now it looks like Ole Miss is going to pad out a lead.

Ole Miss ran a two point conversion, rolling their QB Dart right. Penn State’s entire defense rolled to that side of the field. Ole Miss’s TE pretended to roll to that side, then walked to the left. Dart threw a weak pass across his body for an uncontested but easy score. Penn State’s defensive scheme isn’t ready for Kiffin’s playbook.

Ironic because Penn State popularized the RPO movement with Joe Moorhead as their OC.

Will be interesting to see if last year's rumors were true. Remember when Kiffin was tied to Auburn's job for a few weeks? Rumor was that a few high level 'Bama donors told him to wait because they had a strong suspicion Saban was close to hanging it up at 'Bama and Kiffin would be backed by a lot of donors to take over.

Well, there's rumors that if Saban does win it all this year, he's going to retire.

All internet speculation of course, but what if 'Bama does win it all...it will get VERY interesting.

Auburn is such a good fit for Kiffin. More money than Ole Miss and less scruples when it comes to winning. He and the Yella fella are kindred spirits when it comes to football recruiting.

I was thinking Ohio State should fire Day and back up the truck for Kiffin. It’s a better fit for Kiffin because he wouldn’t get compared to Saban

Moorhead was their last good OC. Their offenses have been meh to bad since he left

Their offense isn’t bad—they’re a top 15 team and they’re in a big bowl, and they were in the CFP conversation late in the season.

It’s just inferior to what Ole Miss does.

BTW, Ole Miss just scored on the same option toss play King scored on. Dart should have pitched, though.

The B1G has always been inferior to the SEC. Yet their hubris has never allowed them to admit it. This is why - despite all the $$ they're raking in - they will never be the premier CFB league.

What the heck is the Orange doing starting at 4:00? Nothing is sacred anymore in CFB. The only sacred is $$$$$$$$$$$!!!!!!

Refusing to watch the crap show.
