***OFFICIAL MINNESOTA AT ILLINOIS BOUNCE-BACK IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

[rivergopher]

Starts with Recruiting taking out 2017 we have averaged #10 last 5 cycles. Coming off #14 just not good enough. In conference.

 

[SamSquatch]

Devito 9/10 for 100 yds and a TD with no QB hits or pressure at all. Do we have talent at DE?

 

[short ornery norwegian]

I blame the all-white uniforms.

 

[fmlizard]

Fleck uses his first half timeouts the best of any coach I've ever watched closely, college or pro.

 

[cjbfbp]

They look bigger, faster, and stronger than us.

Meaner too

 

[GringaGopher]

Too early to panic. But definitely some alarming stuff early.

Agree but according to many here on GH our season is over, lol.

 

[mnsportsgeek]

Good job on the time outs, PJ. They're gonna turn 3 points into 7.

 

[rivergopher]

This will backfire

 

[howeda7]

PJ's strategery backfires.

 

[stocker08]

Not getting pressure. No excuse to rush that many guys on 4th and not get to Devito.

 

[rivergopher]

Great coaching Fleck. What a joke

 

[theTurning]

We are not well coached. We are not talented. Year 6 will be 7-5 coming off #14 recruiting rankings. This program is not headed in the right direction.

Where are you finding 3 wins

 

[USAF]

Game over.

 

[GophersInIowa]

I would have rather they kick with the wind there. Incredibly stupid.

 

[Pompous Elitist]

Blatant hold by left tackle

 

[rivergopher]

We are not good. We beat Rutgers/Nwestern to get to 6 wins at this point.

 

[laazrakit]

Do we have talent at DE?

That's a question that Rossi better figure out...

 

[stocker08]

Looks like there will be some new people on ignore here shortly.

 

[Some Day...Maybe]

No pass rush. No chance with a pass rush like that. Gotta get to the QB.

 

[wdgold]

This is going in the wrong direction real fast!

 

[rivergopher]

Fleck is a terrible in game coach. No feel what so ever.

 

[Iceland12]

Look at it this way, good game to bring out all the trolls.

 

[kg21]

Devito 9/10 for 100 yds and a TD with no QB hits or pressure at all. Do we have talent at DE?

Should be 11/11

How embarrassing!

 

[Roland Brooks]

Refs against the Gophers again?

 

[scools12]

Only took Bielema two years to surpass the Gophers in the B1G West. Pretty impressive job.

 

[gopherdudepart2]

Great start.

I said last summer the linebacking corps was a weak point, got savaged.

Its weak.

Sori-Marin too slow to cover tailback, Safties especially Nubin getting torched.

 

[FredCoxRocks]

Rally Football.

 

[rivergopher]

I cannot bet against the gophers but my god that 6.5 all week just felt like a joke.

 

[GopherGod]

The gophers victories so far this season were against teams with abysmal records. Paper Tiger is what the gophers are looking like

 

[Some Day...Maybe]

Their D line dominating our O line and their O line dominating our D line.
