The chatter for Pribula to start regardless of Allar’s health is so galaxy brained. Why thrust him into his first start in a high stakes game vs. Ohio State? Have people already forgotten about Drew Allar’s final drive in regulation vs. USC? Two 4th down conversions with immense pressure. We don’t even know if Beau is capable of being clutch like that. We’re RB/TE centric as it is. Part of why it has worked is because Drew Allar can make all the throws and defenses still have to respect the perimeter/deep balls. While Pribula presents unique challenges, if he’s starting for a full game, OSU should stack the box, stop the RBs/TEs and force Pribula to make outside throws. That could easily cost us.
Great guest. A lot of good insights. Don’t sleep on the QB matchup though! A less than 100% Drew Allar v Will Howard could make all the difference for Penn State compared to McSorely or Sean Clifford vs Justin Fields/Dwayne Haskins/CJ Stroud for a lot of reasons, especially the turnover and explosive play battle.
This guy obviously hasn't watched W. Howard play this year. Having a bias from a previous stop is fine. But at least be willing to change your mind based on the current play. 22 total tds and 77% completion in BIG play.
