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.

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 more to say.

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)...

I wish I could meet each of you -- because if you're at The Splash, you are something rare. Trust your hearts, guys. You heart knows where your future is.

Cody to the Raiders! He will be a starter. Book it.

I linked to the relevant timestamp.

Apologies if this is old news. (Linked to relevant timestamp -- for those interested.)

I've been a bit spotty... Have some cool things going on that are taking some time. But, that said, I don't recall seeing Built in a while. Worried about him. Anyone recall seeing him?

Remember when I told you that the plan was to use the short passing game to force a defensive alignment with two safeties and then run? Before the season started. Recall? I said it here: https://gopherhole.com/boards/threads/you-wont-believe-what-i-think.115620/ Well... Last week...

I think the Gophers are going to run a West Coast offense. This will force the opposing defense to play Cover-2. When the opposing defense aligns in Cover-2, we will have equal numbers at the line of scrimmage -- and we will hand the ball to Taylor, and he will gash them. Then the defense...

https://www.youtube.com/shorts/pa7AGs2uRXw God forbid we actually post about the team.

Look: we entered this year with two question marks: (1) QB; and (2) defensive backfield. Here's the clear picture of where we are... We now have a QB who can pass opportunistically. In other words, he is not yet able to run an offense organized around passing. But he can -- now --...

Before this season, I compiled a histogram analysis of Sean Tyler's carries from the previous year. And I noted that he had a tendency to carry for negative yards, but also had a significant capacity to go all the way. I was challenged about the losing yards observation, and i responded that...

This histogram includes all 56 of Darius Taylor's carries through three games. -1/3 of his carries go for 2 yards or less (2 yards is the mode). -1/3 of his carries go for 3-6 yards (median of 4). -1/3 of his carries go for 7+ yards. So based on my personal means of assessing a runner (mode +...

I had to view Saturday's game in a social environment, and could only watch three-quarter's of it. So my view of the game was unfocused and incomplete. That said, here's what I took away. (1) AK showed he has a strong arm and can throw all the routes. But we already knew that. (2) He was...

Out of curiosity, is anyone aware of whether the Gophers have heard from the NCAA concerning his waiver?

This is a histogram of Mo's carries (maroon) vs Sean Tyler's carries (blue) based on the regular season of last year. Since Mo had 1.5x the quantity of carries (209 vs 320), I multiplied Sean's carries in each category by 1.5 in order to control for volume. Some takeaways: -They are equally...
