Gophers looking to do some 'soul searching' after biggest home loss in two years

[BleedGopher]

Per Tony:

"It was just ugly, that's not the way we play," Patterson said. "We know what was at stake too. Win this one and we're 5-8, we're right there in the mix. Now we got to come back and we got to re-fight, go to L.A. and try to get two. We just got to do some soul searching right now because that's unacceptable. That's not on any of the coaching staff, that's on all the players."

Think we are well beyond the soul searching point of the season.

I hope Coyle is coach searching while Ben and staff are soul searching.

They did this kind of thing in the locker room after the Wisconsin game and then played much better the next few games. I guess that dose wore off. Let's see if it's as effective in the next dose or if the body's built up some immunity to it.

Maybe the new dose combined with some California sunshine will get them back on track.

They can search all they want, it likely won't help them win at UCLA.

Agreed, but we have a decent shot at USC with a good performance.

Actually, Lu'Cye, it is the way the team has played against the better conference teams with one exception (Michigan). I guess they played a fair game at Maryland too. It's not like the team can't be competitive but they rarely are competitive against the teams with winning conference records.

We kinda seem to have ruined Oregon's season...the wheels fell off for them after we beat the Ducks

I'm guessing Musselman wouldn't mind sticking it to the Gophers, should be interesting.
