Helluva play by Winfield! [sm=dothewave.gif][sm=dothewave.gif][sm=dothewave.gif][sm=dothewave.gif][sm=dothewave.gif]

2-0. Nice group of young guys so far. Hope Smith isn't out long.

Man, if the back throws it sooner they score. What a recovery and leap. All -Pro's son indeed.

Karl Juhnke -> RE: Gopher Football (9/9/2018 5:20:40 AM)
I've watched the replay several times now. The most amazing thing was Winfield's quickness. When the ball was released, Winfield was a yard out of the end zone and had totally bitten on the run. He still was able to instantly recover, get to the back of the end zone, locate the ball, snag it and come down in bounds. Wow. Yes a pass thrown a split second earlier and with more zip would have been a TD, but that still showed some amazing athleticism by Winfield.

Heck of a game. D was great but this O stinks. Anex is better as an 18 YO true Frosh than Leidner was as a senior but he's still an 18 YO true Frosh. His WR's need to stop dropping balls early in the game. It sets a tone. The OLine was struggling too. That should be a staple of Gophers football. A beefy OLine. It's currently not.

TJSweens -> RE: Gopher Football (9/9/2018 11:13:21 AM)
This was a quality win. Fresno State is arguably the best of the Group of 5 teams in the country and an odds on favorite to play in New Years Day bowl game. Beating them with their top 2 RB out and a freshman heavy lineup bodes well. Ax has a lot to learn, but he completed over 60% against a good defense. Agree with Jeff that he is already better than Leidner was a senior. The O-Line does need work, but they have time to gel and there is a lot more depth than there was last year. Winfield? We may not see a better interception in a game saving situation in college or pro football the rest of the year.

That 3rd down play Anexstad made in the last drive where he scrambled, threw off balance and fired a strike to Johnson on the sideline for a first down, Liedner couldn’t have made in a million years. I don’t know any recent Gopher qb who could. It’s going to be a learning year for sure for him, but the dude has some skills. And a good attitude and demeanor too. Nothing seems to rattle him.

It stinks compared to a top team with experience players, but we have hope for a passing game for the first time in a long time. We were playing our 3rd and 4th string running backs. They are young but they have some talent and could grow into a team that does something special.

Quality family, quality kid.

They stink now but show a lot more potential than any non-Mason offense I've seen. I think maybe the play calling is being held back a bit right now too. That probably isn't helping them look good either.

Typical Zack Annexstad," the coach said. "He comes over to me right on the final drive, which is probably not the best time to come over to me, looks over to me and smiles 'isn't this fun?'"

Ugh... Jon Krawczynski@JonKrawczynski 2m2 minutes ago Sources tell @TheAthleticMIN that Gophers star RB Rodney Smith will miss the rest of the season with a left knee injury. Tough blow for a very young team.

TJSweens -> RE: Gopher Football (9/10/2018 2:03:22 PM)
Figures. The one guy we can least afford to lose is of course the guy we lose.

bstinger -> RE: Gopher Football (9/10/2018 2:12:27 PM)
Ouch. Can we redshirt him for next year?

SoMnFan -> RE: Gopher Football (9/10/2018 2:14:37 PM)
What was PJ's take from Saturday night? Trying to figure out where he stands here.

That said -- give this team a healthy Smith/Brooks, another year of maturation from Annexstad/WRs/OL, and a senior crew of Coughlin/Barber/Martin? This team could be special next year.

Hey Pete! Was off the grid this weekend .. thanks for the heads-up on THE PLAY Really didn't think we'd need that to beat Fresno, but a W is a W ....
