***OFFICIAL GOPHERS VS PURDUE IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

[go4ergold]

Time for the biggest come back in Gopher history....since 2001. : )

Absolutely!!

 

[GopherInPittsburgh]

You can blame that on so few game reps in the gimme games. But hey, we run the ball to win by 10 points in gimme games, and the glossed-over homers on this board slam me for asking why we don't work on the passing game. THIS is why - because when we need it we don't have it.

Leidner could throw it 50 times a game but at some point the lack of ability takes over.

 

[cncmin]

Why is everyone acting like we need to go air raid offense to overcome this 11 points with a whole half left?

well, when the offense had to move the ball more than 2 yards they only scored 14 points...and given the play of the defense, I'm in agreement... I'd call it an emergency.

This lack of timing looks less like lack of ability and more like lack of game reps.

Now what do you call it?

Looks like Limegrover thinks so

 

[Pompous Elitist]

That a boy. Now, tackle.

 

[Pompous Elitist]

No need to get tricky here. c'mon guys. Take the easy points.

 

[Replacement Gopher]

Really? Just give it to Cobb to get the two points. Why are we not doing what has been working?

 

[cncmin]

Now what do you call it?

I'd call it another blow to could-be momentum (the missed XP)

 

[Maximus]

If only we passed against Eastern Illinois!

 

[btowngopher]

I thought it was a good play call. Bentley made a nice individual play, otherwise Santoso walks in.

 

[Gopher028]

I don't hate that call, Santoso is huge, theyre just playing really smart and made a good tackle..

 

[Maximus]

Translation: Good drive guys!

 

[FalconHeightsGopher]

Santoso looked like a big upright lumbering twig on that fake. Never try that again!

If Santoso knew anything about getting low and driving, he'd probably have scored anyway.

 

[GopherinPhilly]

Ben Laur #78 just screwed us on that fake xpoint. Got manhandled by the FR LB.

Come on you got to do better than that!

 

[Dr.Don]

And were known for our comebacks?

No need to get tricky here. c'mon guys. Take the easy points.

I like the trying it. Down 4 or down 5, doesn't matter.

Time for the D to step up now.

 

[Replacement Gopher]

We have to stop em here.

 

[go4ergold]

Big 3rd down here.

 

[Coolew01]

Thank you

 

[Tucker32]

I don't normally complain about refs, but should be 28-28 right now if they don't call the fumble and incomplete pass, and the phantom illegal formation call on extra point. This is a game where ref calls have had a direct influence on score.

 

[Nate]

Nice!

 

[btowngopher]

WOOOOOOOO! Got a little pressure finally. The D line has been quiet.

 

[RolGnav]

Wow, we got lucky there. That was a penalty for sure. Make up call!

 

[WhoFellDownTheGopherHole?]

Time for some Craig James magic.

 

[Replacement Gopher]

Just give it to cobb

 

[cncmin]

Boom! There's our makeup call. Still not sure how he didn't block that.

 

[Nort73]

We got bailed out there. Murray changed his direction a little at the end. He should have had that blocked for sure.

 

[Maximus]

We should've passed more against Eastern Illinois!
