Explain the Gophers loss to UNC in 1 sentence

[El Amin Fan]

The only fireworks tonight were those that went off after the game for some reason.

 

[upnorthkid]

let's change our best and move on to a new coach who understands the modern era

 

[tikited]

Dumber team lost.

 

[fmlizard]

Still not explosive

 

[Mick Turition]

Didn’t realize the season was in balance.

 

[USAF]

Playing not to lose is for losers.

 

[MNVCGUY]

First game, crappy conditions, and a missed opportunity to get a victory against a Power 4 team.

 

[kg21]

Not surprised at all and won't be in upcoming weeks.

 

[mngg11]

I'm disappointed but hopeful we can turn it around by Iowa time

 

[holereader]

Same silly mistakes - missed tackles, penalties, not getting off the field on third down, O-line, fundamental execution

 

[Great Plains Gopher]

The odd thing is that PJ says out loud what is wrong but can't seem to be able to do anything about it. Brosmer can throw the ball, as we saw at the end, but not in that offense, which is still geared to ball control by running.

 

[BilldGopher]

Hopefully growing pains in Game 1 or the pain will grow over the season.

 

[Great Plains Gopher]

P.S. Rutgers ran all over poor Howard U, 44-7, while Kaliakmanis added 3 passing TDs, hitting 15 of 24 for 147 yards.

 

[bleedsmaroonandgold]

This is Fleck ball.

ONE SENTENCE!

 

[Some Day...Maybe]

Terrible offensive coaching.

 

[EG#9]

Uncharacteristic mistakes combined with very characteristic conservatism.

 

[Arminius]

It was a dark and stormy night...

 

[GopherDog1]

The Gophers were outclassed on the field and the sidelines.

 

[Gold Vision]

Our kicker choked.

 

[caliGopher]

Our goal is to dominate TOP and we lost that battle.

 

[Texan Gopher]

When you play not to lose, you always lose.

 

[1983]

This coaching staff is just a repeating GIF.

 

[XMan]

Penalties, missed kicks and a stagnant offense

 

[Spoofin]

UNC was socially and spiritually superior.

 

[Five for fighting]

Brutal playcalling in the redzone and off day by the kicker.

 

[DelawareGopher]

2023, the sequel.

 

[Panthadad2]

Wide right.

 

[DEGopherfan]

Ill-timed penalties, fumbles, poor tackling!

 

[Texas Tornado]

I am disappointed that Minnesota lost. I thought they would win this game.
I don't know who gets the blame for this loss. Maybe Fleck and the coaching staff,
along with the team. I still think the Gophers are the better team. Surely last night's game
is not an omen of thing to come this year. Row The Boat !!!!!!!!!!!
