Misery Index · Despair · ▲ from 31
One home loss to Wisconsin and the fanbase has already moved from blaming the coach to blaming the AD.
What happened
Wisconsin came to Happy Valley and left with a 24-20 win, and Penn State left 3-1 with a season that suddenly needs explaining. The turning point wasn't a snap, it was the moment the fanbase stopped believing the staff had an answer, somewhere in the fourth quarter. One fan called it "some of the worst coaching I've seen." Another skipped analysis entirely and went after Pat Kraft, the "mOsT eXpEriNcEd QB" and a "Temu James Franklin coach." Misery jumped from 42 to 85. September is not supposed to hurt yet.
What fans said
“Fuck Pat Kraft, Fuck our 'mOsT eXpEriNcEd QB', fuck this Temu James Franklin coach.”
