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

[MonikerSchmoniker45]

Big kick right there.

 

[upnorthkid]

Good kick. Would’ve loved a little more drive to go get 6 here but 3 is a good result

 

[Gophergrandpa]

I understand that it's a fast game, but all those missed tackles are fucking day one shit and they seem to do it every fucking week.

Football is hard …

 

[WayOfTheGopher]

Those refs gave Bielema a lot of rope, he should've gotten a flag for coming on to the field and arguing.

Koi pick 6 upcoming

 

[upnorthkid]

Really intelligent defense setup there guys

 

[Gopherchase]

Coaching malpractice there we had momentum and he slows things down and flops a chance at 6. Just dumb.

 

[btowngopher]

That's big if Bryant goes out.

 

[Unregistered User]

Hate that

 

[WindyCityGopher]

Blitz him

 

[howeda7]

Terrible defense here. And Fleck's burning the clock didn't work.

 

[btowngopher]

Not sure that was smart to just give them that yardage.

 

[Unregistered User]

Whew

 

[Gilthorp57]

Jezzus, this prevent defense stinks

 

[Gophergrandpa]

Bielema vs PJ in the 2:00 minute drill is no contest.

Worked just as planned

 

[johnnybb]

I wonder, if you're that illinois kicker if you're miffed because you were basically put in an impossible situation and it messes up your numbers. I suppose if you're a gamer you just are happy to get the shot.

Bielema vs PJ in the 2:00 minute drill is no contest.

Yup.

We scored, they did not.

No contest.

 

[Gophergrandpa]

Lately, the Gophers have made good half-time adjustments. I hope that continues today. We get the ball first.

 

[Gopher_In_NYC]

I’ll give us a B for the first half.

 

[PMWinSTP]

I understand that it's a fast game, but all those missed tackles are fucking day one shit and they seem to do it every fucking week.

Are you OK?

 

[SPEGOPHER]

Running game gives me hope. Need to get to Altmeyer more. Defensive strategy on that last drive was inexcusable.

 

[IceBoxGopher]

Not a great first half but not bad either. It was going to be a battle, on the road Vs. a top 25 team. That first drive of the second half will be big. Let's get a touchdown.

 

[Gopher Ally]

We need an explosive play on offense to break this thing open

 

[PhillyGopher]

One step forward two steps back with PJ game day coaching. WTF is he doing here?

Glad you could finally show up to grouse about something

 

[hello-world]

I did not fully appreciate how much Fox broadcasts suck until we got NBC

 

[gopher56]

I still want to know how Illinois got a timeout, but then didnt actually call it and got it back? But we would not run our original play too? Having that timeout back wad kind of huge.

 

[gopher56]

I did not fully appreciate how much Fox broadcasts suck until we got NBC

Agreed, this broadcast and announcing are terrible

 

[Panthadad2]

That long run by Illinois with multiple missed tackles almost felt like a turnover that scored. Gophs need to keep stepping on the gas on offense. Illinois can score.

Agreed, i feel like they are testing our corners, but we’re not. We’re need a couple 50/50 balls to jackson
