Penn State beat Rutgers 13-10 Saturday, and a local columnist is unhappy about James Franklin’s lack of praise for his opponent. Or something.
3 weird complaints about Penn State, as illustrated by weird Rutgers fans
Rutgers appears not at all ready for big-time football -- or at least a local writer isn’t.

[James Franklin] could have acknowledged that the Scarlet Knights defense made his quarterback -- a sophomore who already has NFL scouts drooling -- look ordinary.

Instead, he schmoozed the media and thanked them for covering the game -- even though they got paid to show up and probably received a mileage allowance for the gas and tolls. When he was done, he wished the beat writers a good night. Then, he doubled back to tell them to drive home safely.

Yes, the guy who has turned postgame press conferences into one big neck rub from the Pennsylvania and national media knows all about public relations, so it’s reasonable to assume that if he had wanted to give Rutgers an atta-boy and a pat on the fanny, he would have. But he didn’t.
Ummmmm. What, #Rutgers? pic.twitter.com/aWdDWT7xcj
