TCU keeps tackin it on




drew -> RE: Gopher Football (9/13/2014 5:39:35 PM)

Normally I would say this is a bad omen for the conference season, but we honestly could still have a winning conference record this year. I used to think analysts overstated the weakness of the Big 10, but it is an absolute joke right now.




SoMnFan -> RE: Gopher Football (9/13/2014 5:41:01 PM)

Hey! Nice play by May.

I can hear it on the PA now ~~

NDSU beat Iowa State
Iowa State is 0-2
And tied late, with Iowa ... who is at home. [:-]

The Big Tens a killer.
The Big Tens a mess.

Streveler in
Leidner crushed by a tackle




Jeff Jesser -> RE: Gopher Football (9/13/2014 5:48:59 PM)

Our huddle: trips right, zone dog, busted ass running play on 2, on 2. Ready....break.




SoMnFan -> RE: Gopher Football (9/13/2014 5:50:24 PM)

No kidding
Hard to come back, when your open-it-up offense is a 2 yard QB dive play
Pathetic.

We aren't enough of a defensive juggernaut, to think this conservative crap is gonna win us any big games.....




SoMnFan -> RE: Gopher Football (9/13/2014 5:53:08 PM)

Nice
Streveler to Maxx for six

Exactly. Our game plan was ass backwards today. We should have:

Came out and tried to establish a power running game.


What we did:

Came out on the hopes of Leidner's arm. Got down big early and then tried to establish a power running game when we needed to OPEN IT UP.




Jeff Jesser -> RE: Gopher Football (9/13/2014 5:56:32 PM)

Was this Kill's offense at his last gig? I didn't watch them but I "thought" they were much more wide open.




SoMnFan -> RE: Gopher Football (9/13/2014 5:58:00 PM)

Iowa State downs Iowa




SoMnFan -> RE: Gopher Football (9/13/2014 5:58:33 PM)

Big Ten is 1-10 vs big school non-cons so far.

I sure thought so too.
Almost a run-and-shoot thing?
Maybe I was dreaming.

It was more wide open at NIU. However, having a QB who can make an accurate pass more than 3 yards downfield is helpful in opening up the offense. Not saying that's anyone's fault other than himself though.




SoMnFan -> RE: Gopher Football (9/13/2014 6:07:04 PM)

Holy Crap I'm old
28 years ago today ... Darrel Thompson played his first game as a Gopher
4 TDs
205 yards




SoMnFan -> RE: Gopher Football (9/13/2014 6:18:57 PM)

30-7
[:o]




Jeff Jesser -> RE: Gopher Football (9/13/2014 6:26:48 PM)

Text from my buddy who's a massive Ohio State fan and also a massive ball buster.


Pretty good showing by your boys today. Only lost by 23.




SoMnFan -> RE: Gopher Football (9/13/2014 6:32:05 PM)

What can we say man ... not a damn thing.

Exactly. I've been wondering that since day 1 but thought maybe was a personnel thing. Not after 3 years...




Jim Frenette -> RE: Gopher Football (9/13/2014 7:47:24 PM)

For a team that wants to be a power rushing team, Cobb sure got stonewalled at the LOS a lot today. Absolutely no running room. Either the line was that bad, or they were telegraphing the holes




twinsfan -> RE: Gopher Football (9/13/2014 7:58:35 PM)

Some thought Gray was a bad QB. Leidner is the worst starting Gopher QB in my lifetime. Inexcusable recruiting mistake to go into a season with him as your #1.

Horrible.
There were 4 year backup QBs all over the country yesterday making huge plays.
The Neuheisel events in UCLA were so much fun.
That kid is a freaking CLONE of his Dad. Its like they turned the clock back.
But I digress.
Go find a competent kid to QB your offense, or any improvements the rest of your team have made ... wont matter. [X(]

Yup. You can be solid on D and in the running game, but unless you have a competent QB you have no margin for error. Leidner was terrible yesterday, and just a shade better than terrible in the first two games.

I thought we would lose yesterday, but be competitive. That was a "name the score" game. Good thing Kill and Patterson are buddies or that could have been a 55-7 game. We just athletically are nowhere close to them; like watching HS vs college. Good news is when we get to the Big 10, all the teams have second rate athletes so we won't seem so overmatched.
