Do you ice the kicker up 56-0?

[ManOfTroy]

Penn State's James Franklin claims that he needed to call the timeout. I'd much rather him just admit that he wanted the shutout.

 

Penn State's Franklin denies trying to ice kicker with 56-

[CincySportsFan]

Hogwash. He's a liar.

[NKY Bandit]

Classless, IMO.

[ThrillVille Cardinal51]

Meh.

 

 

I can't bring myself to get worked up about it.

If you are kicking a FG down 56 then you can't complain if they ice you.

Don't blame the team that was losing smh. Yes it's classless and James Franklin is words that can't be said on here. So what? Let them at least score 3 points. Jerk move

[woodsrider]

Down 56-0 and your trying to kick a field goal with :11 left? Who cares if he did ice the kicker.

So what? It's college ball and the other team is trying to score. Pretty lame to try a fg down by 56 with :11.

Hey we actually agree on something college football related. May be the first time

His excuse was lame. "We had our 4th team FG team in and didn't have a field goal block play for them so we called timeout to put 2nd string in" Like dude come on we all know you called timeout to preserve the shut out. Be a man and own up to it. Franklin is beyond classless and it's not the first time he has done something like this.

I love it! Go Penn State!

Give the losing team a participation trophy lol.

I agree with that side too. 56-3 is still embarrassing. Just asking Franklin to admit to it.

Agree. Just admit that you are.

It's not a participation trophy. They still have to make the field goal. He called timeout right before they snapped the ball. Absolutely classless. No way around it.
