The game plan to run Mo 40 times is not a legit game plan. It almost worked here against a bad team but doesn’t work against real squads. And if you are going to rely only on the run, you need someone that can house one, which we desperately desperately desperately need. Real gross to...

6 consecutive runs

We are not above average

It’s bonkers how easy it is to call a defense against the Gophs.

We are not good enough to rely on just the run v Iowa and WI.

I don’t think this is clear. Irving was our most explosive back. It‘s not particularly close. His ability to make plays catching the ball out of the backfield would have been a huge asset in a year where our WRs are performing poorly. But can’t fault a kid for chasing NIL money at a more...

First play of the game v. Purdue where we somehow lost 5 yards on a handoff to Potts.

Watching Gopher football during the Kill/Leidner era was torture. Brewster was a bad hire, Kill was a bad hire, jury is out on Fleck but has had more positive moments than either of the previous hires.

I can understand the effort to compensate players, but NIL in current state is a problem. Less for the scenario listed, and more because a decade from now, the top 25 school NIL pools will more-or-less mirror the top 25 rankings. Way less fun.

Needed Mo to house that.

Devito 9/10 for 100 yds and a TD with no QB hits or pressure at all. Do we have talent at DE?

I am wondering if Isiah Gibson from KY will be a DL target. Gophs were on him out of HS and Rossi was his primary recruiter. No information here I just saw his name come up a while back and thought he may be a target if we go DL in the portal:

I hope that finishing with a series of tough games on the road ends up as a non-event, but as a fan of this team over the last several decades, there is no way I can feel comfortable assuming Gopher road wins over the likes of MSU, PSU, WI, etc. But agree the team has the talent to be as...

The schedule next year seems substantially more daunting. 5 of last seven on the road, including games at Illinois, Neb, MSU, PSU, and WI. Would be thrilled to see the Gophs maintain strong trajectory but given the program’s patterns over the past few decades, I would expect a strong start with...

This is it. The B1G west is one of the worst conferences in football, and this was a down year for the division even by that standard. There was an opportunity this year that has been missed. A component of that opportunity is beating your rivals, who are also having a down year. We bungled the...

Leidner was a terrible runner. We ran him a lot but he was not good at it. He ran like a 5.0 40 At the combine. Molasses.

Lol absolutely not.

It is bonkers just how badly the Gophs have gotten their asses absolutely kicked by our main rivals over the last two decades. Just brutal.

That they do nothing is inaccurate. Whether they should be enforced at games is debatable, but it is not a big deal. If you have a sincere issue with masks, just don't come to the games then man.

Bucko in space off the catch is a threat. He can 1-cut a swing pass a way the other two cannot. Still like the other two also. Cant imagine another QB would be as slow as Leidner. And if that is the strategy then the results will be the same - butts kicked every year by Iowa, WI, and any helmet...
