Michigan St. has a top 5 defense in the country. They held Michigan to 12 points, and Wisconsin to 10 points in regulation. There was no way the Gophers offense was going to put up 20+ points today.
At the end of the day, our entire offense is filled with underclassmen that should have been back-ups or red-shirted this year. Just think about the receivers that played most of the game. True freshman McDonald, first-year player Fruechte (who didn't play football last year), and first -year walk-on Engel. If the offense isn't significantly better next year, it will be time for concern, but not quite yet.
