Too bad there is no free agency in international soccer, because the US would have loved to have Haaland in this tournament as our striker, who's Norway team didn't even qualify. Until we develop an offensive player like that or Brazilian Ronaldo, we won't win the World Cup.
I've been watching the USMNT play my entire life and one of our greatest strengths has always been corners and set pieces. In this World Cup, we were absolutely terrible, and without a world class #9 goal scorer, you need to score on set pieces.
The US looked pretty tired from the opening whistle after running so much in the group stage, which I think accounted for a lot of the open players in transition and poor marking/tracking back on crosses.
Penn State was beating Ohio State 21-16 with 9:26 left in the 4th...and lost 44-31. 28 points in a heart beat and once again Penn State collapses late against Ohio State. In the end better Jims and Joes beat Xs and Os.
It is with a heavy heart that we share that our dear friend, MX Co-founder and CTO Brandon Dewitt passed away this morning following a 5+ year battle with cancer. Since his Stage IV cancer diagnosis in 2016, Brandon not only survivedโhe thrived.

Tough loss and season for Penn State. Difference in the game was Michigan RB Haskins yards after contact. And PSU needs to recruit a more explosive RB. Plus, you also have to deal with the normal James Franklin stupidity at the end of games.
Good effort by Penn State but they just don't have enough firepower on offense this year, especially in the running game, to beat a team like Ohio Stat. Plus, 3 turnovers for 10 points didn't help either
To be competitive with Ohio State you usually need to put up 30, and 40 is the magic number to win. Based on what I have seen so far from Penn State this year, they don't have the firepower for more than 20, but let's see if their defense plays out of their minds.
Penn State is now ranked 20 in the polls. With a road game coming up against Ohio State, and games left against Michigan, and Michigan State (away), I can easily see a team once considered a playoff contender, going 7-5 and finishing unranked.
