And just one season I would like it to be us. Before the season started I saw 10-2. Losing to Cal puts us at 9-3. Bet we drop at least one more so I’ll go with 8-4. I would have really enjoyed 10-2 and just maybe an outside chance of losing in the first round of the playoffs.

Honestly what legitimate reasons did you have to think gophers would be 10-2?

There's like, an entire thread

10-2 - tell me I’m wrong

Buffalo - Lance Leopold ain’t walking through that door. 1-0 and probably by 3 scores Northwestern state- maybe better than northwestern but awful. 2-0 and by at least 3 scores @Cal - sneaky sneaky but 3-0 by 10 points on the road Rutgers - Revenge game at home against Athan K coming off a...

This game will depend on the secondary and the DL. I expect our offense will be able to move the ball, and that if we get a lead, we'll turtle and hope to win. If we can get a few stops against Purdue, that should be enough.

I was at the 59 - 56 victory over Purdue at the dome in 1993. The precursor to the Joe Tiller "basketball on grass era".

This game was "tennis on grass" - defenses optional.

A game that featured 8 TDs per team and one Field Goal with 8 seconds left to win the game.

There were 1,184 yards gained in that game in total.

The teams combined to average 7.5 yards per play (7.8 for the Gophers, 7.2 for the BMs)

And combined to score every 9.1 plays.........(hence it was like watching a tennis match back and forth/back and forth)

The Gophers 84th ranked defensive stop rate and Purdue's 127th ranked defensive stop rate has me thinking there is a chance at a repeat! (not really).
