Yesterday, Penn State fired offensive coordinator Mike Yurcich, a day after the Lions mustered just 15 points against Michigan. This just a few weeks removed from the Ohio State game, where the team managed only 12 points. Yet overall, the Lions had one of the highest scoring offenses in the conference. Proof, I suppose, that cupcakes are not, in fact, filling enough to sustain someone.
The offense to me has been more than a little enigmatic. Not just this season, but even going back to 2021. The game that I have in my mind is the Iowa game, wherein the team looked good until starting quarterback Sean Clifford went down with an injury.
