***OFFICIAL MINNESOTA AT IOWA JUST FIND A WAY TO WIN THIS GAME THREAD!!!***

[State of Football]

So predictable. We get the turnover and mindset is let’s try to kick a field goal! What a joke…

 

[upnorthkid]

PJ is such a good coach. IF YOU DONT TRUST YOUR QB TO NOT MAKE A MISTAKE ON 3RD AND 3 HE SHOULD NOT BE YOUR QB.

This mass conservativism will kill us

 

[Redowl]

And we pay these coaches for these decisions

 

[Whytetale]

If the goal is boring football, we've succeeded!

 

[cncmin]

woof the old play for a long field goal into the wind after a turnover strategy. Brilliant.

 

[#93fanclub]

Evans is a more effective runner today - North South. Taylor is East West

 

[nitramnaed]

Taylor is not full speed. More Evans.

Agreed

 

[ergopher]

Every time...

 

[Gopherwatcher]

The zone read is REALLY hard to run if you don’t include the read part.

 

[Desertbobcat]

How many times are we going to run the zone with a short backside away from run without boot showing that, wow

 

[big10guy]

Won't win playing for FGs, especially after a turnover.
And then you miss it.

 

[From the Parkinglot]

You get a turnover in Iowa territory. Run for 3, run for 4, and run for no gain. Then you try to kick a field goal into the wind from 43 yards. The very same wind that you feared so much in the first quarter that you took a timeout to kick with the wind. Change your best PJ, change you best.

 

[WayOfTheGopher]

Fucking coordinators getting paid to select plays picked by a computer. I can't wait until all this shit blows up in PJ Fleck's face.

 

[WAGopher]

Seriously call the final timeout of the half just to run the play that I guarantee was already called on the field

The only thing that last time out did was to let Iowa call a better defensive set on the field.

 

[FireDaveLee]

I don’t know what you guys are watching….we flipped the field 7 yards! Field Position!!

 

[USAF]

And i caught shit for a thread claiming PJ plays not to lose rarher than to win.

 

[cncmin]

The zone read is REALLY hard to run if you don’t include the read part.

that’s the most frustrating part of watching this. The alternative is almost always there and we never use it. That is a very bad strategy if you never use the option.

 

[SuperMeat]

Iowa offense looks far more competent than whatever the fuck PJ runs

 

[GophersInIowa]

AK has to keep a few of those. Their defenders on the edge are crashing down hard.

 

[Border Gopher]

Iowa doesn't even need to take a timeout to draw up that sneak. Amazing!

 

[GoGophersUMN]

If the worst offense in the country has twice as many yards as us, what does that make our offense?

 

[big10guy]

What's it say about your offense when the home crowd gives you a standing ovation as you make a first down on 3rd and 1?

It says their shitty offense is better than ours.

 

[USAF]

Look at that...Ferentz isnt afraid to let his qb throw the ball.

 

[howeda7]

#$$%.

 

[salzie]

And that's the difference. Iowa will get ball back at midfield

 

[rivergopher]

Again their punter is the best in the country

 

[Breakin' The Plane]

Neat. Safety territory.

 

[From the Parkinglot]

I wonder what our play calls will look like at the 1 yard line.m?

 

[BTChamp]

Here comes the safety for holding in the end zone.

 

[cncmin]

first down inside the one. can Darrell Thompson break one??

As a sidenote, I notice that Iowa plays decent players on special teams, while we leave a guy back there who has made multiple mistakes and no good plays through the first 6+ games.
