Agree. He's the sort of WR you'd actually WANT to throw WR screens to. Put the ball in his hands and let him move and pull away. ...Percy Harvin without the headaches? :-)

I checked out his hudl. ...He's noticeably fast -- pulls away from everyone.

Look at Willis pointing out the correct pass -- and the ball, does indeed go to Asuma, who then charges the lane and floats one in. Gotta love the teamwork, communication and selflessness. Two thumbs up.

DT is out today.

I'm a Gophers fan. Help me out here... what's ball movement? Is that like a bowel movement? Or is it something else?

It's not complicated. Against Nebraska, both Darius Taylor and Jalen Smith played. Against Iowa, Darius played 3 snaps, and Jalen played 5. So that left the Gophers trying to run an offense with: (i) no running game; and (ii) no deep threat. Defensively, I believe the Gophers have placed too...

Look at the formation on DT's 71-yard run. Gophers line up in 2x1, with the 2 WRs lined up on the strong side. So -- by formation alone -- 2 corners, a safety and an LB are pulled to the strong side. The run goes to the weak side. ...And who's the WR lined up alone on the weak side...

Put in Brosmer!

Holy sh!t… May happen.

I can't be the only one who saw Malachi Coleman absolutely LOCK THE F*CK UP the corner on Darius Taylor's 71 yd run. ...Made the whole play happen. We NEED to get that guy effective in the passing game, because if he can lock up like that all the time then he needs to be out there. We just...

No. Not even close. People want instant results, but the reality is that, as fans, we are in the dawn of a Golden Age.

Agree. Just beat Iowa.

No more to say.

Ha! What an astute comment! Thank you.

Kingsbury. How could anyone not vote for that? Makes me smile every time I rewatch it on YouTube. :-)

To my eyes, this team does not lack talent – it lacks identity. Bear with me, if you care to. In previous years, if you really thought about our running attack, the path to a dominant running attack looked like this: (i) rush in vain up the middle for about a quarter-and-a-half; and then (ii)...

Regarding the defense... I have not re-watched the game, but -- that said -- my impression while watching live was that after Rutger's fast start, we concluded that we could not stop their receivers (they have three future NFL receivers on their squad). If you can't stop their receivers, then...

What a remarkable young man.

I hasten to add to my previous observation that: (i) this sort of lack of coordination so early in the season is commonplace, especially when Johnson spent last year playing center; (ii) I thought Johnson looked pretty darn good out there from an all-in perspective; and (iii) I was THRILLED to...

I mentioned this in another thread, but from a topical perspective my observation should be here. I noticed an OL screw up on a particular play in which Lindsey was sacked. The DE took a hard inside rush to "draw" Roy inside with him, and meanwhile the DT made initial contact with Johnson...
