per FSN:

"I definitely think our offense is 10 times better," said running back David Cobb on Saturday. "Starting up front with the O-line, all those guys are bigger and stronger and they're so versatile. Going against our defense every day, those guys are great. I think they've got us prepared to play. We run the ball a lot better and we definitely pass the ball a lot better. Mitch has got chemistry down with those receivers. I definitely think we'll be a lot better this year."

Coach Jerry Kill believes he has versatility in the personnel of his offense.

"I think that, you know, we're certainly deeper at tight end," Kill said. "We're deep at backs. We got different kind of backs. Receiver-wise we got small, jitterbug-type guys, and then we got some guys with length . . . As far as personnel-wise, I just think we're able to do, to be able to do different things from each week but really stay in the same thing we're doing. But we can certainly do some things formational-wise with different people."

Go Gophers!!
 


Can someone translate Kill's part for me? :)

Here's hoping Cobb is right and the offense really does take a big leap forward this year because it is going to have to for the team to keep moving in the right direction.
 

I think Coach Kill's saying we've got the personnel to implement the offensive schemes...and we don't need to change much except execute the schemes. Of course this means in the passing game.

Go Gophers! Ski U Mah!
