Penn State's GLARING Weakness vs. Ohio State + Is Carson Beck Regressing? | College GameDay Podcast

Rece Davis, Pete Thamel & Ryan McGee, host of "Marty & McGee" on SEC Network, discuss what it takes at the highest level of the sport, for Penn State to take down a team like Ohio State. They also get into the amount of pressure there is on coaches and why it's not so easy to take a beat to enjoy a moment of victory. Then they talk about what could possibly be going on with Georgia's quarterback Carson Beck given the amount of interceptions he's throwing. Finally, they touch on South Carolina bringing Texas A&M back down to Earth and if SMU can make the College Football Playoff!

Henderson’s block was a thing of football beauty! OSU’s defense holding Penn State to 6 pts can not be overstated!!

[josiel.delgadillo]

Reese is spot on about how everything is forgetting beating the top teams are hard.

[cassiereed]

For years people say fire Ryan day, but watch the win vs PSU, watch all the videos of them celebrating and the post game interviews from everyone and you’ll see that the team believes in him and he believes in the team. He might not be the world’s greatest coach ever but he for sure leads these boys in the brotherhood!! Go bucks! ⭕️🙌🏻

[JackycClark]

From a life long Buckeye fan, you said it absolutely right . Appreciate the honesty .

[americantitan]

Georgia fan here and I’m glad people are finally starting to see what we the fans have been seeing all season. Carson is simply not the guy. Last year he was carried by elite receivers and now it’s really affecting him mentally. He is scared to throw the ball to the new guys and proceeds to do stupid decisions, when throwing. If Georgia wants to compete for a national championship, He needs to be benched. He’s not getting any better.

[consciousmnd]

It’s a multifaceted issue for Carson.

He isn’t confident. His mechanics are off. His WRs drop passes. He’s inaccurate. His WRs run the wrong routes. His OL routinely misses blocks.

The RB room depth has been depleted with injuries.

The players this team was going to lean on are either playing horribly, injured, or kicked off the team.

[SlickMcVega]

GA played with their 4th and 5th running backs. A true freshman and a walk on who didn't get a single carry. Etienne, Rod Robinson, and Branson Robinson were all out.

[deonbowser]

Penn State is exactly who we thought they were...

[ChrisDavis-kpqg]

Jennings played 3 Quarters against BYU. The BYU Defense just dominated SMU up front.

[pepwin]

Excellent point Reece!! That birthright notion is wack

[LarryMay-pw]

Why would Penn ST. Run 3 times up the middle? They lost the game with stupid play calls! In my humble opinion!😂

[GTUF]

all pete thamel talks about is "nfl prospect". Why is he covering CFB if that is all he cares about? Just so strange

[TemiFayiga]

Rece in a HOODIE?!!? Never thought I’d see this

[okstate]

45 minutes of Football Talk SUMMARY…

Ohio State - Penn State first 20 minutes

UGA QB next next

Last 10 minutes… ACC Title (Miami & SMU)

[HTHAMMACK]

Lovett, Bell, and Smith is a very good receiving corps. Is it as good as last year? No, but you can't say a receiving corps with those three guys and Lawson Luckie at TE is a decimated receiving corps. Nobody even mentions that Marcus Rosemy Jacksaint was a very good receiver who also left off last year's team.

It's hard to figure out because Beck was very, very good last year. With the exception of the SEC championship game, he was great. Why it's different this year I don't know.

[lawrencematthes]

We don't consider it our birth right to beat Michigan. It's our duty. People on the outside misunderstand sometimes. Excellent point about the excitement of Saturday. It wasn't just beating Penn St. That's about as exciting as beating Michigan most of the last quarter century. Yawn. Days satisfaction was HOW we won. And the criticism of Day against Michigan the last 3 years is similar. It wasn't losing, it was the way we lost. The first time they beat us, it wasn't tough to take. They were the better team . That happens sometimes. But Day ABSOLUTELY blew the game in Columbus the next year. PERIOD!! Last year we played well in Ann Arbor. Actually the only team that out gained and out played Michigan last year. 2 mints was the difference. And both could have, and should have been avoided. All Marvin Harrison had to do was go after the ball. Or at least break it up. Not the coaches fault.

[alanbrooke]

Penn State forever for me Joe coaching ...oh my. Since oh dam. I hoped I prayed because I knew we were most likely going to lose.
After saying that, Indiana has shocked me on how they changed from last year. I've even recorder their games to watch.
I'm 69 as of 2 days ago been a die hard college football watcher since 8. That said Indiana looks better then EVER IN MY MEMORY.
OHIO STATE AT BLOOMINGTON, INDIANA HAS GREAT CHANCE TO SHOCK COLLEGE FOOTBALL MORE THEN OHIO STATE BEATING PENN STATE.

[Troy-fvuq]

Didn't PSU get one of Ohio States WR's in the portal?

[cragt]

I'm sorry but as a OSU fan we expect to beat the teams we are better than, 3 out of the last 4 years OSU had a better team/roster than Ichigan the only time I believed that team was better than us was last year

[prc]

And they won't add the fact that Xichigan cheated over 30 times for 3 seasons....
