Welcome to an instant reaction edition of Andy Arion.

Presented by BetMGM and Ari as we stand in front of work done,

getting ready for Florida State and Miami to play in Doke Campbell Stadium.

We got a lot of talk about.

What an afternoon.

That's my analysis.

All right.

Let us start in the Rose Bowl.

We have to start in the Rose Bowl because that is the most crazy result, the one nobody

expected.

We didn't even, okay, we talked about Penn State, but we talked about Penn State this

week in terms of, okay, what happens when they play Ohio State?

What happens when they play Indiana?

We never once thought about UCLA beating Penn State.

Never once.

And by the way it looks from the game and the way the game went, Penn State never thought about it either because UCLA jumped all over them.

I was surprised they were televising it coming into the weekend because I didn't know if like abusing people on on national television would be a fair thing to do. That's how I was thinking about it. So we talked about this walking in from the parking garage as they were losing the game. Now Penn State had a chance to win, but that's not what's important. Before we get there, can we talk about that? Penn State had a chance to win, but that's not what's important. What's important here? Before we get there, can we talk about that? Penn State has a chance to win. They get the ball back with 12 seconds to go. With 12 seconds to go, Drew Aller throws a swing pass. Now, we don't know what the communication was. We don't know what the play call was. So I'm not going to play that all the at the feet of drew aller or an anti-codile niki the offensive coordinator or james

franklin head coach but somebody the communication was. We don't know what the play call was. So I'm not going to play that all the feet of Drew Aller or an Andy Codle,

Nikki, the offensive coordinator or James Franklin head coach. But somebody, one of those three people, made the decision that that was going to be a swing pass. All right. I want to back up for one second because that's the end of the game. I want to go to where we were coming into the game. this entire week, everybody was throwing, you know, eggs at Penn State for being a fraud, for being a team that is just the same as they were last year. They can never win the big game. Right, right, right. All the things that you get from Penn State whenever they lose. And I thought that that was premature, Andy. I'm not going to run away from that. You remember last week in, you know, episode. And I want to look that straight in the eye and say, hey, you know, they played a really good Oregon team, a team that we thought had a chance or still has a chance to win the national title. They played them to overtime at home. Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose. It's a new season, new roster. They returned a lot of players from a team that played to the final minute in the in the college football playoff semi-final last year.

And they improved their most obvious roster deficiency at receiver yeah they lost it sucks that it seems to be part of a trend but

moving forward they're still going to be able to um you know prove themselves but the one thing

that james franklin has never done yeah for all you want to say about how bad he's been against good teams, they always beat the teams they're supposed to. So till today. Going on the road and here's the thing, you sleepwalk against Purdue, you sleepwalk against Maryland. Yep. They slip walk against a team that is literally dead. Right. Like this is, I think, the most shocking result of the season. They've already fired their coach. They fired their offensive coordinator this week. Now, we can talk about that because Tim Skipper, the interim coach, his decision to fire Tino Sonseri, who was the offensive coordinator they brought in from Indiana. He'd been the quarterbacks coach.
