Dienhart: 10 things that need to improve in Week 2 (10. Minnesota scoring)

[BleedGopher]

per Dienhart:

10. Minnesota scoring. The offense got off to a solid start vs. Buffalo, notching 14 first-quarter points. But after that, the Golden Gophers managed just three points in a 17-7 victory. It will help if the rushing game picks it up. Minnesota ran 51 times for 169 yards (3.3 ypc). And the long run was just 16 yards.
Up next: At Oregon State. The Beavers eased by FCS Portland State, 35-32, as the Vikings had 515 yards.

Thank you Captain Obvious!

I'm not even sure he got that right... I didn't feel like we started strong at all..

It's so hard to understand much of anything after one game. Did the running game suck because it was so predictable (inside zone 31 times) or because the OL sucks? Did we run inside zone 31 times because we can't do anything else well or because we wanted to show as little as possible (and make evaluation simple)? I'm torn. We'll know a ton more after Saturday.
