***OFFICIAL MINNESOTA AT MICHIGAN STATE BIG TEN OPENER IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

[BTChamp]

Yeah, not very flattering.

 

[Five Toes]

you really got them at 500 to 1?

you really got them at 500 to 1?

No my mistake. 1005.00 payout. Just looked a the ticket a friend purchased for me. Sorry about that.

 

[SpartyOn]

Let’s get it on!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Gophergrandpa]

I’m hoping Morgan can pass well enough to take advantage of MSU secondary.

I hope game plan and receivers give him some clear shots to pass to.

 

[Live in the now]

I have a quandary. Do I miss part of the game for an pportunity to see and get a photo of me and the Stanley Cup? HELP

I would. I had a chance to see it in Hudson when Davis drewiskie won it with the kings. It was cool af

 

[WorkingMyTailOff]

Here’s to the folks who made the trip. Would be super fun to be there for the game.

 

[SelectionSunday]

Been to Spartan Stadium many times, and every time I go by Magic I think the statue looks like Morgan Freeman.

If we win the toss, we defer to the second half right? Let’s see our D shit them down first!

 

[60's Guy]

Poll questions:
Does the score allow Athan to play in mop up duty today?
Does Athan not play at all?
Does Athan throw the game winning touchdown pass?
Does Kramer run the wildcat?
Do we play three quarterbacks today?
If Mo normally gets a 100 yards in the first half...does he play four quarters today and surpass 200 yards rushing?
We blowing em out or winning in a nail biter?

 

[short ornery norwegian]

everyone says that MSU's secondary is trash. So, if the Gophers can connect on some early passes, that opens up the run game. the whole key is which WR's pick up the slack with CrAB out.

I hope we shut them down! Shitting them down would smell.

Since it is now Gopher football season, who is Stanley and why is his nut cup having photo sessions?

Joking of course. I'd take off a half of football and go for the once in a lifetime pic.

I thought it was Wilt at first, until I read the name.

The last time I was in East Lansing for a game I passed out at halftime while sitting in the stands. We started tailgating at 5am. At my age I’d probably pass out at 6am this time around.

Mo was just mentioned in Heisman talk on ESPN College Gameday. Saw it live, don't have the clip.

Yep, and all on the panel thought the Gophers would prevail AND some would not be surprised if Mo had a big day...which in this case meant well over 100 yards...

Fun to hear...

 

[highwayman]

I fear a slow start when our guys get punched in the mouth by a legit B1G team for the first time in a long time, but then we find our footing and if we win the tiurnover battle we will be fine.

Lifer, huh?

Gophers(-3) v. MSU is also on Bear's Big Board (of three games.....). He already took Iowa (-8) over Rutgers.

 

[touchdownvikings]

This will be a telling game.

(1) The Gophers will be able to simply roll over about half of their Big Ten opponents.

(2) This is likely not one of those games.

(3) Gophers will need to pass in order to: (i) take advantage of Spartans' defensive weakness - their secondary; and (ii) compliment the run and open it up a bit.

(4) Tanner, as a passer, is accurate and has great touch. PRE-SNAP reads are spot-on. POST-SNAP reads are still unproven.

(5) If Kirk can give him an effective system like 2019 that does not require much in the way of POST-SNAP reads, then the Gophers will have high-end success all year long.

(6) Can the defensive front hold-up against the run?

Break out the booze. Gonna be fun!

 

[highwayman]

…the once in a lifetime pic…

Since the cup travels to 100 places or more every year, I doubt this. I’ve seen it three times.

 

[stocker08]

Talking about the game on CGD right now.

Bear picked MSU. But he's also an idiot.

 

[Unregistered User]

Im so excited for the wedding I need to attend this afternoon instead of watching the game.

So, if you guys would avoid posting any updates until I get home late and watch the recorded version, I would appreciate that.

 

[Yah-E]

So I heard Reed is game time decision?
