Wow, didn’t know we dominated the clock that much today.

 

[Replacement Gopher]

with the bad spot and no review, it was all we could do there.

No, on third we should have passed.
Incomplete and we still get the FG. Running did nothing there even if we got the first.

 

[cncmin]

I’m saying go for it.

In this case, I like the decision to take the “sure” lead into the half. Still would like to see more QB of anyone other than Morgan today…

 

[Stuff]

Trinketts?

The kicker. Also a reference to something Mason said.

 

[FormerFatOL]

Where have these nice toss and cutback plays been the last two years when defenses stack the middle?

 

[UpAndUnder43]

Would it have mattered if it was a 1st down? We end up with a FG either way IMO.

Maybe. But I’d like to have the time to consider and see what they want to do. Personally.

 

[UpAndUnder43]

If we are positive on turnovers in second half we should win. You would think Padilla has one bad int in him.

Unfortunately he might have thrown it to MSM already

 

[Replacement Gopher]

Some of us are happy, just cynical because of the inexplicable ways we lost to BG and Illinois. I think a little bitterness makes sense.

If you’re not a little bitter you’re just no right.

 

[fan of Ray Williams]

Ref had them with the first down his whole way down the line, then moved his foot six inches back right before he put the ball down

Yes!

 

[GopherRock]

As for the FG try, remember it was 4th down. I'm okay with running it down.

Oooohhh Trickett

 

[fmlizard]

Executed the game plan in first half…let’s bring home Floyd!

 

[RogueGopher]

I'm confused. People want Morgan to take shots in the endzone there, but also complain about how bad he is at throwing the ball?
Don't risk the int, or sack, and take the points and lead into the locker room.

Agreed, but it’s a good thing we didn’t shank the kick. Our kicking isn’t exactly automatic.

 

[BTChamp]

A division one football team that doesn’t even try to score a touchdown in that situation, wow!

Referencing The Gopher basketball team last night. Only a few seconds left in the half, they push it and get a three at the buzzer.

 

[DanvilleGopher]

Terrible clock management at the end of the half.

Were you surprised??

 

[cncmin]

Fortunate that the good Trinketts showed up today

thanks for jinxing it a-hole!!!! lol

 

[Word]

Damn, I wanna be happy drinking tonight, not sad drinking.

I’ll take an exact replay of the first half in the second.

I like those odds.

Don't risk the int, or sack, and take the points and lead into the locker room.

Not to mention our receivers rarely get separation. He'd be throwing up a 50/50 ball.

I saw that too. Iowa pig flocker.

 

[Section 100]

Two years of setting up for this game. No film. Elite.

 

[fan of Ray Williams]

Win this 2nd half. Do it for me.

 

[gopher7]

PJs first lead against Iowa

For everyone's scrapbooks.

 

[GoodasGold]

Like a hot knife through butter.

 

[GridironGus]

Rossi has been good at making adjustments and locking down. Hopefully it continues. Very happy that Sanford has thrown some wrinkles in the offense. Go Gophers!!!

Sanford....or Simon???

 

[Word]

USA beats Mexico in soccer for the 3rd time this year last night...and now let's let the Gophers finish this one off (asking the "football" gods).

where can I buy Fleck's pullover?
