    Time of Possession

    Playing for time of possession is meaningful but not necessary. Yesterday Northwestern bullied Maryland 37-10. Maryland won the TOP game 33:51 to 26:09, ran 85 plays to NW’s 52, and out-gained NW 355 to 283. NW had no turnovers. Maryland, however, turned the ball over on 3 times on failed 4th...

    Both Iowa & Wisconsin can be 3-3 after 3:30 PM tomorrow

    Iowa and Wisconsin just curbed stomped Washington and Rutgers. Both games were blow outs. 😖

    Hope Maryland saves some foot for the Gopher game. Both these teams, NW and MD, are very beatable if the Gophers play a complete game.

    Maryland NW game is very interesting. At 9:00 minutes left in game, NW leads 24-10. Maryland has run 72 plays to NW’s 41. Both rushing games suck: MD avg. 1.79 yards per carry; NW avg. 1.63 yards. MD has 238 yards passing, no INTs; NW has 203 yards passing, no INTs. NW is averaging an amazing 20...

    Gophers currently have the #1 pass defense in the nation

    Something for Hetherington to work on … we been gashed by the run a lot this year. Gotta key on the trap blockers … and DL need to earn double-teams to give the LBs a fair chance.

    Gophers currently have the #1 pass defense in the nation

    DL could do a better job of holding OL from getting to the second level, too, so our LBs can roam more freely. But from what I see at games, it seems as though our LBs, even when free, aren’t filling the right gaps, or are whiffing on tackles when in the right gaps. They are who they are, as you...

    Gophers currently have the #1 pass defense in the nation

    Some USC commentators had the exact same thought. Why go almost exclusively to the pass in the 4th Q when the Goph’s D has had so much trouble stopping USC’s running game? It was a second-guessable strategy, for sure. Played into the Gophers’ strength on D. 🤷🏼‍♂️
