Pretty interesting! Hang tough Gopher team…Gopher Coaches and “….row the boat…”
Would be interesting to see how the Gophers rank here home vs away compared to league averages.
This year we either bent but didn’t break or bent and instantly shattered into thirty pieces.
The story is really this, for all 18 teams, in 2025: A. Minnesota was the least penalized team in the B1G, and, B. Minnesota was #2 in turnover margin.
In one score games, that will certainly get you wins.
The numbers above only factor in conference games so Northwestern State would not be in there.
It really proves that if you stay discipline and don't beat yourself you can find away more often than not. Purdue and Sparty we essentially let them beat themselves with dumb penalties and timely take aways. Gophers turned the ball over four times in nine big ten games and three of them were against Iowa. So outside that one turnover in eight games. Really shows how strong the coaching is in this program Sunday through Friday to be able to play with that discipline on Saturdays
