Describe the Gophers loss to Iowa in 1 sentence

[WindyCityGopher]

PJ Fleck coaching against Iowa is a foregone conclusion.

 

[Mr. 131]

PJ is rowing alone as fan apathy sets in and Floyd heads to the land of degenerates.

 

[Gopherchase]

PJ can’t compete with competent Power Five coaches on game day.

 

[Mulligan]

After our first possession in the second half you knew what was coming.

 

[STPGopher]

Refs did us wrong!

I thought for sure Spencer was going to punch somebody. Iowa's DB's knew how to hold and get away with it. We couldn't make them pay.

 

[STPGopher]

It was almost identical to how the UNC game went. What the fuck is this coaching staff doing at the half aside from not a God damn thing?

Legitimate question. 24 unanswered points. Let that sink in.

 

[BilldGopher]

It was a dark and stormy tale of two halves into the night...

 

[DrunkDons]

Can't wait for gopher hockey

 

[EG#9]

Poorly coached program quickly reaching Ben Johnson level of disaster stage.

 

[MonikerSchmoniker45]

Can't wait for gopher hockey

You're a glutton for punishment

 

[Ewert86PC]

Was it "This one's on me." - PJ Fleck

 

[Gilthorp57]

Egg has laid, again.

 

[dbmn]

Legitimate question. 24 unanswered points. Let that sink in.

It's not Fleck/Gophers fault we couldn't score in the 2nd half; Iowa kept holding onto the ball.

 

[MonikerSchmoniker45]

Gophers hope to win, Iowa expects to win.

 

[Five Toes]

Thank god they didn't steal our goalpost.

 

[akgo4]

To quote the Rock, when he ran into PJ.... "You take the Oar, turn it sideways, and shove it straight up your candy asses". Just like Iowa did with PJ and the Gophers tonight.....

 

[Some Day...Maybe]

Since the collapse against Northwestern we have been one of the worst teams in the Power 4 and it's 90% due to the offense.

 

[gopherdudepart2]

Iowa gave us Gopher fans noogey's all second half, and we could do nothing but accept the pain.

 

[gopherdudepart2]

I thought for sure Spencer was going to punch somebody. Iowa's DB's knew how to hold and get away with it. We couldn't make them pay.

They are good at holds, extra chucks in the back before a pass, and hitting early with contact, without getting flagged. Against teams like us, it isn't called but against the leagues bloobloods they get flagged. Not saying it's not skill, they are very good at disguising the grabbing.

 

[BilldGopher]

The Billd's were there in person for the goalpost fiasco at the Dome.

A sight to behold...

 

[Xerxes_]

It wasn't as close as the score indicated.

 

[Vandy]

One coaching staff had the ability to make in game adjustments, the other did not. Boom.

 

[Vandy]

Not bad, it's going to get much worse.

I greatly fear that you are right.

 

[Jeshurun]

Don’t bend, break is our run defense mantra.

 

[GopherMarroon]

Second half starts, what the...

 

[Gopherchase]

The Billd's were there in person for the goalpost fiasco at the Dome.

A sight to behold...

Same. I was in my seat 20 yards away as it headed towards up the stairs.

 

[fanfromthevalley]

Floyd of Rosedale returns to Iowa to a standing ovation after a year long exile in the northland.

 

[swede2]

Oily sloganeering doesn't win football games.

 

[caliGopher]

Outcoached, again.

Telling the boys to keep smiling and having fun?
