Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.

Penix Ungoated Himself Tonight

He had chances, but he shit the bed. He got beat up tonight, and I love him for everything he’s fought through, but you can’t come up that small in the national championship game. Absolutely brutal.

    Championship teams run the ball. This was a fun team to watch, but didn’t you always suspect there was a team out there that was too physical for them?

    It’s not on Penix. Michigan played big boy football.

    DJ clearly wasn’t close to 100%, and that definitely didn’t help. The 3rd down run against Texas fucked us today

    Disagree. The lines were abused and the reason this was an L

    Defense actually played phenomenal for most of it

    You’re not wrong, but Penix still crapped the bed

    The fucking thing is, I believe we still could have easily won tonight. The Rome 35 yarder holding call.

    Penix had a bad game but a lot of that was due to how good Michigan’s defense was. They were the more complete team.

    Win? Sure.gif

    Easily? No

    The lines are not physical enough

    Yes. QB was just good enough, didn't fuck up too much. WR's not good, but decent. RBs were good though and OL was good.

    Combine that with a very good and well-coached defense.

    Is it ungoated or degoated? Antigoated?

    There's no two ways around it. He just consistently missed tonight. Compound that with drops, bad whiffs by the OL, and DJ getting battered on the first series of the game.

    Nobody besides Rome, Westy, and Fautanu showed up on offense. And the end result was predictable.

    I was told that the recruiting rankings don’t matter.

    Can someone please address him looking like a fucking ninja before the game? What was that?

    Adrenaline got to him.

    Who cares? Dude has his head in a box half the season and led us to the title game in year 2.

    Love Penix.

    He showed what he won't be able to do in the NFL...unless he has the best OL in 30 years.

    So Huff is a god or isn’t? I’m confused.

    I’d still fire him.

    Penix looked bad. Not just missing throws but limping around all game.

    For a guy who wasn't barely hit all year, with his injury history, it's not a vote of confidence for his durability at the next level.

    He can kill it if he has a great OL and a strong run game in the NFL though.

    Penix after UT = top 20 pick

    Penix after Mich = late 3rd

    JFC glass bones and just mysterious misses at the most randome times

    Yeah, he's probably a third rounder, like @Houhusky said.

    He was pretty brittle at IU. They don't have good offensive lines, and chances are you'll have a suspect line in the NFL some seasons also.

    I like the guy, but he didn't have it tonight. He's a bit thin, too.

    Exactly my take away. Penix shit the bed but the MI defense had a lot to say about it. Credit to MI.
